Atlanta Revisited

After four days in Cemetery Century Village, we needed a little vacation so we decided to stop in Atlanta for a few days before returning home. Mark and I had never been there together before, and it just so happened the Packers were playing there that weekend.

Ahhhhh, there's nothing like a nice plush king size bed after four nights of sleeping on a back-breaking sofa sleeper!

We stayed at the Omni Hotel, and this was the view from our room in the north tower looking over to the CNN Center above, and looking out over the downtown area below.

From the covered walkway between the north and south towers I took this photo of the restaurant where we ate Saturday night. It was Mark's birthday and we had a great time! The drinks and steaks were fabulous, and we ended up making friends with the really nice couple at the table next to us. They were from Athens but have Falcons season tickets so they were in town for the weekend too.

We also took the CNN Studio tour, which was really interesting for me. Mark works in TV so he acted like he wasn't too impressed, but I think he found it pretty cool too! And of course I had to stop and pose for a photo by the CNN Humvee that was used in Iraq.
