back from Atlanta

I'm finally back from Atlanta, yay!! It's nice over there...totally not what I expected though. The weather is nice there, and there's like no one there! I thought it would be a busy city but it wasn't at all. Three main stops: Georgia Aqaurium, Coca-cola factory, and Stone Mountain.

There were SOOOOO many little kids are the aquarium, I think a school had a field trip there or there was some educational camp or something. But it kind of ruined it a little bit that there were so many little kids there. The best parts of it were the exhibits where you could touch the animals (star fish, sea urchins, sea anemones, string rays, sharks). And I really liked looking at the jellyfish too. I had a really good video of the sea otters...well I thought I did, I apparently accidentally started a video not knowing it...and for about 2 or 3 videos, I was stopping it right where I wanted to start filming. So I have about 3 videos of the floor while i'm walking and none of what I actually wanted to film during that period.

The Coca-Cola factory was nice too. It's was alot better than I expected. Much better value for what you get than the aquarium personally. Got a little sick after tasting all the sodas from around the world. Oh, and I bought myself a T-Shirt that says Coca-Cola on it.

I was most excited about Stone Mountain. There were alot of little kids there too but it wasn't as bad b/c the place was so big. I didn't think it would be an actual theme park. We took the "Ride the Ducks" tour which really wasn't a good tour at all but it was really fun and entertaining...mainly due to our obese tour guide who made fun of his weight alot and was awesome at making beats with the quacker. Rode the skyride to the top of the mountain which was quite a nice sight to see.
