Day Two: More to see, more to do, ready for bed...

Another day gone already? We had a great deal of fun today in many places. We began our day having an amazing experience at the Georgia Cyclorama. What an interesting experience! We then headed to Zoo Atlanta where the students got to see and experience everything from pandas to lemurs to giraffes. After leaving lunch at the zoo, we made our way to the Fernbank Museum of Natural History. We were able to tour some intriguing exhibits and to watch a great IMAX film documenting the migration of the monarch butterfly. We then traveled to Dave and Buster's restaurant where we enjoyed some good food and arcade fun. Needless to say, everyone is exhausted. Good night! We will see everyone tomorrow!

What a day! We had a great visit to the Georgia Aquarium, where the students were amazed at some of the unbelievable animals they saw and even touched. After our fun at the aquarium, we devoured an excellent lunch from the many eateries at the CNN food court, where the students showed off their real-world Math skills by making the the most of the seven dollars they received. We then toured the CNN Studios and got to see the nerve center of a news network. After leaving CNN, we headed to the New World of Coca-Cola. We learned much about one of our favorite sodas, and we tasted some delicious and some not-so-delicious sodas from around the world. We then enjoyed a great dinner from Picadilly, and from there we went on an enthralling ghost tour of downtown Atlanta. All in all, we were busy, busy, busy. Now it's time for bed! Goodnight!
