Atlanta Trip

Last weekend we went on the Hungerford Family trip to Atlanta. There were about 50 of us in the group. Not all were actual family. Some were just close friends. The majority of the group rode to Atlanta on a charter bus.  Steve and I drove down with the kids, and those not from NC flew.  After our 7:00 a.m. departure Thursday morning, we arrived in Atlanta in the early afternoon to tour the Coke Museum, CNN and eat dinner at Agnes & Muriels.  Friday morning we went to the aquarium, followed by lunch at the Varsity. After an afternoon nap (that was much needed), the majority of the group went to an Atlanta Braves game.  Robin and I skipped the ball game and went to the mall for a quick walk around and then to Maggiano's for an absolutely fantastic meal!! Saturday we visited the zoo.  Our kids were extremely tired, so we took them back to the hotel while the others went to the puppetry museum.  Saturday night we all had cake from Costco to celebrate Steve's birthday that would be on Sunday.  Sunday of course was the trip home.  We did stop in Gaffney for a little bit at the outlets and I scored some great deals at the Children's Place.  It has taken me a while to blog about this vacation because it has taken me several days to recover from it!! :0)  Overall it was a great trip.  Next year -- Chicago!
