Georgia Aquarium And The New World of Coca Cola

After purchasing City Passes, our first stop of the day was the Georgia Aquarium. We got a couple good pictures, but it was an overly crowded and hectic experience with pushy children everywhere-frantically shoving one another to get to the front to take pictures with their cell phones… It’s strange to see knee high kids carrying cell phones, what’s this world coming to?

Deepo’s Undersea 3D Wonder Show was great! I just loved that singing shark-”no one wants to be a shark’s friend.”

We took a short walk over to The New World of Coca-Cola which was right next door. I convinced Chris to go up to the 2nd floor first rather than go in order. That way we could start by sampling a handful of drinks now, give our taste buds a chance to re-orient themselves, and then go back and forth every so often between that and the other attractions…..versus what most people did-waiting until the end to start sampling more than 60 coke products from around the world-after a while your taste buds get overloaded and they all start tasting the same.

It was a very high fructose corn syrupy day, but honestly it was fun. I liked a minty tasting one from Djibouti called SunFill Menthe the best. Chris remains loyal to his favorite-Vanilla Coke.
