See the lady in the back? She had major mom jeans on. The lady she was with was CRAZY! She yelled at children and the eldery who tried to take her group's "saved" tables all throughout the restaurant. I wish I had gotten a picture of her in action.
After the Varsity we headed over to the World of Coca Cola for a tour and tasting. I visited this one and the one we used to have in Vegas when I was younger, but it was so much fun since it had been a while. I gave up drinking soda back in high school but I obviously had to make an exception this weekend. We tasted a lot of good/interesting flavors, but the worst by far was Beverly (I think from Italy).
We spent some time touring the Margaret Mitchell house (she wrote Gone with the Wind). Besides the awkward tour guide, the outside of the house was beautiful and the original apartment inside was really neat to see.
Everything up until this point in the day went pretty smoothly. That all changed when we arrived at Underground Atlanta...if you've ever been, you know this was a bad idea. We thought we were going somewhere for fun shopping and to get some dinner. We realized within five minutes (not enough time to get a picture of the sketch crowd) that the website was false advertising, and decided to head out of the city. My very generous Aunt Robin and Uncle Mark lent us their house that night. We got to see my cousin Morgann and Grant's new baby Harper the next day. She was so tiny and adorable! The rest of the day was spent shopping at stores Asheville is too cool to/too dumb not to have and driving home. I ate too much sugar and grease, shopped more than I probably should have (everything was on sale though), and spent a lot of time on some form of transportation. With all of that said, I had an amazing weekend. I'll take another.
I feel like I spent this whole post writing a fifth grade essay on "What I did over summer break..." but I can't be entertaining all the time. Informative posts are equally important for my family :)
