The Georgia Aquarium

The Georgia Aquarium was fantastic! There were so many animals that I don't think I have ever seen in real life before. These include Beluga Whales and Whale sharks! What a site to see! The Georgia Aquarium is also home to one of the largest tanks in the world!!!

Check out my video of the Whale Sharks:

The Coca Cola Factory

The Coca Cola Factory was a lot of fun! It starts out in a room filled with Coke memorabilia from all different countries and years. Then we moved into a movie theater room where we watched a short movie with the Coke polar bears. It was very cute! After this we moved into a different area where we could split up from the group and do our own thing. There were different sections to explore. There was an area to get your picture taken with the polar bear, an area to see the vault that the secret recipe for Coca Cola is supposably in, an area to see the bottling process and a museum type area. This was all on the first floor. The first thing my group decided to do was go into the Vault to learn about the recipe. After that we got our picture taken with the polar bear then explored the bottling area and museum. After doing all there was to do on the first floor we made our way upstairs for the 4D movie, other museum and tasting area. The tasting area was fun because there were types of Coca Cola drinks from all over the world. Some were gross, others were OK, but my favorites were all still from the USA. On our way out, we got to take a small bottle of Coke that was made that day at the factory. It has special labels on it so I will be keeping it as a souvenir. The gift shop was fun to look around as well. There were all types of Coke souvenirs. I did not buy anything but there were A LOT of options.

Trip to Atlanta, Georgia

So sorry for the lack of posts last week. I was in Atlanta for a conference. I have been to Atlanta before but that was for a band competition. All I saw back then was the Varsity and the Georgia Dome.

On this trip I got to see much more! I saw the ferris wheel, CNN, olympic park, the hotel where Mockingjay was filmed and I went to the coke factory and the Georgia Aquarium. I am going to do a seperate post on the Coke Factory and Aquarium, but here are some other pictures from my trip.
