Lady and I went to the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta, GA. Here are some of the beautiful creatures that I most enjoyed.
(Manta Ray, Beluga Whale, Leafy Seadragon)
After we were done there, we went to the World of Coca-Cola right next door. I really like learning the history of people, regions, and I've discovered I also like learning the history of a companies. Maybe it's just that I like history; learning where thing started and the journey they went through to get where they are today. My favorite part was at the end where we got to test coke products from across the globe. I like those better than the products distributed in the United States. All of it was one huge Coca-Cola advertisement but still pretty cool. My Aunt Mary has her entire house decorated in Coca-Cola and I'm sure she would have been in Heaven while there, so I got a post card for her.
To come full circle with the aquarium theme, we ate at Legal Seafood Restaurant. We both got shrimp dishes, though they were very different, they were both pretty satisfying.
Our last stop in Atlanta was at IKEA. Now I can say that I've been to IKEA. Our purpose for stopping there was to get ideas for Lady and Dad's bathroom/bedroom; colors, themes, anything. Not much luck. We found a couple of pieces that we liked, but they wouldn't really work together. We left IKEA with a few bars of chocolate, some cookies requested by a coworker, and a bottle of sparkling cyder. I'd call that success!
My brothers and dad will come into the Huntsville airport on Sunday around 4:30. I'm really excited to get to see them! They've been out at Grandma Lowe's house in California working on things around her property.
