Summer in Atlanta Part 3 (the last of the catch up photos for now)

We just got back from Savannah this weekend and I'll try to post those later this week. I just need to post the last of our pics from these previous weeks!

Stone Mountain: Let's just say that rides are expensive and not that great. The ride to the top of stone mountain was neat (you can also hike it, but we took the lazy way). They have a laser show/fireworks on Saturday nights and that was fun.









Oakland Cemetery: It was really neat to walk around and see so much history in here.

Author of "Gone with the Wind"

This part of the cemetery was so sad to me... all soldiers from the Civil War. The loss you feel at so much death in war 
is almost more than you can take. There were tons more graves of soldiers than what can be seen below.

Famous Golfer... Bobby Jones

Parker was happy to find his name on a headstone... me? not so much... :)

World of Coca-Cola: The exhibits were neat, but the taste-testing was the most fun! Tons of icky flavors and a few good ones! The one I'm trying below is called Pine-nut... made me a little nervous, but it was actually pineapple coconut (aka pina colada). Yum!





Greg's friend (also in the MBA program) is interning at Coca-Cola so we met up with him when we went. Good to see familiar faces. :)

Isn't it so fun to explore new places? I can wait to check out the South. Glad you are seizing every opportunity. Making great memories, awesome.
