Atlanta Adventures

Our annual picnic for my company (formerly Mapgeek’s company), was at Six Flags! That’s hard to pass up when tickets, parking, and food are paid for by the company. Especially since tickets are $50 apiece!!!! And add in $15 for parking and who knows how much for food. It’s so expensive. One interesting observation is the clientele that ventures to Six Flags. Lots of trashy-looking people in lots of wife-beater shirts (men shouldn't advertise underarm hair, especially if they are gonna be sweating – yuck). I assume we have lots of rich people in Georgia to be able to take all their little ones to Six Flags.

We got there in the morning, which was determined after the fact to be the best time to go. However, with the eager waiting for Curleygirl 3.0, I didn’t get to ride anything. But, Mapgeek took Babygirl on her first merry-go-round ride! She loved it! They sat in the car part, rather than on the horses. She’s still a little small for that.

The day after the Six Flags picnic, we packed up the family and went to the Aquarium for Granddaddy P’s birthday. Babygirl loves watching the fish! An interesting observation is how different the crowd was from the Six Flags crowd. I only saw one wife-beater shirt and lots of well dressed and pretty much well behaved people. We all had a great time seeing this wonderful exhibit. I definitely prefer this to Six Flags.
