Atlanta trip
Sam and I went down to Atlanta on Sunday and came back yesterday. It was so much fun. We went to the zoo, the aquarium, and the art museum. We also went out to dinner at the Melting Pot on Monday which was quite fun.
The zoo was totally cool. They have giant pandas there. They were too adorable. This the youngest one, we watched him climbing around for quite awhile before he settled in for a nap.
There were also plenty of other great animals to see, but I liked the pandas best of all.
We went to the aquarium on Monday, which was really cool, except for the fact that we didn't realize that there would be no school and that the place would be packed with people and their small children. I had a few moments when I felt like I couldn't breathe but Sam was really good at steering me out of tight spots.
These guys were my favorite at the aquarium... of course I ended up with the song Baby Beluga running through my head for awhile...
The museum had an exhibit on the First Emperor of China's terracotta warriors. They were absolutely amazing. I have wanted to see them for a long time now and it was so cool that they happened to be at the museum while we were in town.
All around it was a great trip. Sam spoils me. Plus I still have the rest of the week off. I'm planning on doing some projects around the apartment. Maybe doing a little painting or a sewing project or two. I've already fixed the sofa, it had developed a bit of a sinkhole in the middle.
