Underground Atlanta
A couple of weeks ago my 13 year old was a page at the state capitol--when I picked him up we walked up MLK by the Underground parking garage and then over about 2 blocks on Peachtree to get to where I'd parked. We were pushing through quite the scary crowd hanging around, and was doing my "city walk" like you do in NYC, Paris, Rome, etc. where basically you go fast with that "don't mess w/me" body language. We finally got to the other side of the street above Underground and my son looked at me and said, "well, that was fun". Then I took him to the Haagen Daz and we saw tourists walking that direction and I'm thinking what a great impression of Atlanta they'll take home!
We used to go to Underground a lot before they tore down the old baseball stadium. We'd park there, eat at Groundhog Tavern, then walk to the stadium. The new stadium is too far away, so haven't been there for years and haven't a clue what it's like now.
I'm pretty sure I read that Six Flags opened last weekend.
I'm in May-retta, so I often get to say......"just go up to 41 Hwy and take a right at the Big Chicken"......quite a site to see.
