My weekend in Pictures

I had a very busy/interesting weekend. We went to 6 different tourist attractions (plus 4 restaurants). I have pictures of 5 of the places we went to. I bet you guys can figure out where we went without me telling you. Let's see who gets all 5. The only clue you get is that i live in Atlanta. If you live in Atlanta, u are not qualified for this guessing game. The winner(s) gets.......... Nothing really.


I almost died from laughter watching my friend climb on this thing with her tight jeans. She's on the big side, so that added to the hilarity of the situation. The policeman and some random lady that were watching couldn't contain themselves also. I told her not to but she didn't listen.

I had to crop myself out of this picture, that's why it's a little short. I did my ta da pose. Pity you can't see it.

Dead giveaway right? Thank me later

We took some really lovely pictures of the park, unfortunately i happen to appear in them, and can't crop myself off. Sorry. I didn't get a picture of the fountain works (?) cos people were playing in it. The fountain is interesting to watch cos it does all these displays. I should take a video if it next time.

Polar bear. Hmmmmm.... scratches head, where is this?

Think, think.......................................................

Ta da! Don't tell me you still don't know.

Oya, let me help you.

Shark looking fishy with long nose.(^_^)
I bet you know where this is now.
We were not supposed to take pictures of this exhibition, but i already got a couple b4 i was told. No wonder those people were giving me the side eye.
Notice how the one in the middle is a little crooked. I went to lean against it to take a picture and it moved like it was about to fall. I screamed and ran away b4 the attendants came.

One of my favorite artifacts or whatever they are called. It is very detailed. One of the ladies had a purse on her lap and another one held a fan. I don't think u can see that from this picture.


Answer:
CNN ($13 to take the tour which we didn't), Centennial Olympic park (free), World of Coca-cola (loved the 3-D search for treasure thingy) ($15), Georgia Aquarium ($27 for admission only), and The High Museum($18, but this dude gave us free tickets as we were about to enter the building. Sweet!). We also went to Underground Atlanta (free), but we didn't take pictures. We were supposed to go to the Martin luther King historic center (free) but i had to work. Besides i have been there before but i wanted my friend to see it. It was fun being a tourist that weekend even though i have been in ATL for close to 7yrs. We are off to Six Flags over Georgia on Friday, my first time. Whoo hoo!

Invisible got 4 out of 5 but he cheated because his girlfriend lives in Atlanta. So boo to him.

  15. nonsense. You went to CNN, then took a walk in the Olympic park across the street, jumped into world of coca cola, then crossed to the GA aquarium and wasn't there some art show with the terracota army at the Cobb galleria?
    Nope, I don't live in ATL. Does having a girlfriend in ATL count against me? I haven't been to all those places either, only 3 of 'em

  16. Bravo invisible: 4/5.

    We went to CNN, then the park one day. Then we went to xxxxx (which u got wrong) the next day.

    Then on the last day we went to the aquarium first before going to coca-cola.

    Yes, having a girlfriend in ATL counts. So u cheated. Ojoro.
