Atlanta-Day 1 2015.....We're having a blast

Day one Today was an incredible blast. We had a rainy drive to Atlanta this morning but as soon as we entered Atlanta, the sky opened to reveal a beautiful sunshine and we've had great weather all day long. Cross your fingers that this continues as we have the Braves game tomorrow. We began our day at the Georgia Aquarium. The kids loved seeing all the animals, especially the penguins.
Next we went to the CNN building. We had lunch in the CNN building where the kids were able to choose from several different restaurants to each lunch.
We rode the world's tallest escalator, toured the CNN building, saw where HLN is broadcast, watched live CNN, and learned the hows behind news production.
We then went to World of Coke. At the World of Coke, we watched a fabulous movie, learned parts of the secret coke formula, learned the history and evolution of the Coke products, enjoyed an entertaining 4D movie, and (the kids favorite part) had a testing of 100s of cokes from around the world (ask your student if they tried the BEVERLY).
We ended our evening of activities at Dave and Busters. This was a great evening of food, games, and fun. The students are all snug in their beds sound asleep (and all the chaperones soon will be also). We have a busy busy day ahead of us tomorrow.
