Morning, all. Was in Atlanta for a couple of days last week on vacation (of all things!) Did the tourist bit... zoo, aquarium, World of Coke, Underground Atlanta, and laser light show at Stone Mountain. It was a blast!

The kids enjoyed the zoo, and my son got to see the pandas (which are his favorite animal... he has a panda bear, not a teddy bear). We even got to see a panda poop...

The aquarium was a blast, with the variety of sharks that they have. The kids like seeing those, although they were anxious to get to the world of Coke, which concluded with the tasting room. Grab a cup, and try the 60+ different coke brands and flavors from around the world! My son discovered a new favorite.... vanilla coke

We went to the laser light show at Stone Mountain, and it was impressive! Only two downers (and suggestions, should you have the chance)... First, either bring earplugs or don't sit next to the speakers Second, bring an umbrella in case it rains. Other than that, lasers, fireworks... what more could you want?

Underground Atlanta was okay, but the Johnny Rockets there (burger restaurant, for those unfamiliar) is worth seeing, just because the folks there are really motivated and excited. First thing the waitress did was to bring the kids a nickel for the jukebox at the table... good food, and good times It was an enjoyable place to go for lunch.

*yawn* and now, back to reality... day 3....
