Eat. Drink. Design. Life: atl.

I know it has been awhile but I have been traveling since it is officially summer. This afternoon I returned from Atlanta, Ga.

The main purpose of our trip was to take my brother to the airport there. He is studying abroad in Russia this summer. I am so excited for him; I know he is going to love it. Even though I will miss him, the experience will be unforgettable for him. Only my parents and youngest brother have been "across the pond" so I'm so excited for him. I can't wait to visit different places and meet lots of different people. He is studying Russian as a language...I wish I could pick up languages like him....I would love to become fluent in at least one language eventually.

Anyways since we were down there we decided to get some shopping and touring done. I would like to say I found lots of things, but I didn't. I need to clean out my closet so I can figure out what I really need. But my favorite areas to shop at are Lenox Square Mall, Little Five Points, and Atlantic Station.

I had a WONDERFUL dinner at Seasons 52. This restaurant is modern and chic specializing in local, organic entrees - all under 475 calories. They are known for their flatbreads so I couldn't pass the opportunity to try one. I got the Garlic Chicken Flatbread--it was delicious!!

For dessert, they do mini indulgences. Our table got the key-lime pie one, carrot cake one, and oreo/chocolate mousse one. They were all amazing!!

I finally got to go to the New World of Coke. I have been dying to go since it opened and let me tell you it did not disappoint. I wish we would have had more time there but we had an event we needed to get back for. I did not see the 4D movie since we were running low on time and they usually make me motion sick.

The taste testing room was so much fun. The sampling is not just Coca-Cola but in fact coke products so there is Fanta, Inca Cola, and Nestea. Make sure to look around the store, there are some pretty neat things.
