Atlanta

This past weekend, Brandon and I celebrated our 1st anniversary :) We got up early Saturday morning and headed to Atlanta. We at tickets to aquarium and we had to be there at 10 their time so we had to leave bright and early. We got there just on time! The aquarium was AMAZING...I felt like the biggest kid "woooo Brandon looook" haha. I really loved but I felt like we went through it very fast...I really expected it to be at least a 2 hr thing, but we were finished in an hour. So we looked around a bit and decided to try and go find some lunch. We (Brandon) decided to walk around some downtown..... :- / anyone who knows me knows I DO NOT LIKE BEING HOT! and of course it was 1,000 degrees that day. Keep in mind that we haven't ever really been down town Atl and we didn't have any idea where we were going but we just kept WALKING! Our ultimate goal was to find the Hardrock Cafe and to have lunch there. We discovered while walking that it was very crowded downtown....we just happen to be there during the National Black Art Festival, which to say the least was very interesting. There was music from all over the world being played and tons of people. Finally after walking forever (in circles it seemed) we caught a cab..."can you take us to the Hardrock Cafe?"...."sure, 10$". I'm thinking okay...$10 we must be a good bit away!!! We make 2 freaking turns and we are there!!!!! By this time I'm sweating like a ....well anyway. So we eat lunch which was very good and we decide to head back toward the Coca Cola Factory because we have tickets to that as well. When we get there the line is LOOOOOOONNNNNNNNGGGGG!! and it's hot! so we decide to skip that and head back to the car and sit in the air condition! We also had tickets to the braves game that night at 7:00 and it was only 1:00 so we had to find something to do for 5+ hrs! We rode around for a bit and had some interesting adventures......some I really don't want to think about again lol and we finally just parked at Turner Field and waited on the game. It rained some while we were in the car which made it even more HUMID!!! The game really wasn't that bad! we had seats under the terrace so our seats were dry (a plus since I was wearing white shorts). The Braves ended up losing but we had a fun and VERY UNFORGETTABLE time!

-On a side note....on the night we got married...we ran out of food at the wedding so a friend of ours went and got us some Burger King...so we decided to make it a tradition for us to eat Burger King some time around our anniversary...we decided to stop and get some on our way home back from Atl :)

Sunday, we got up and went to Cracker Barrel for anniversary breakfast. We also had to go to AC to pick Harley up and eat our cake topper. I sure missed Har Har and our cake was actually pretty good!!












I thought this was the cutest little fish!

The Jelly Fish were amazing!!

He was cleaning the glass...he held on by using a little suction cup




Waiting for the rain to pass
