Atlanta

We went to Atlanta a few weeks ago.  It was overcast and rainy while we were there, but we had a great time nonetheless.  We didn't take too many pictures, but here are some of them. 

We stayed in a Fabulous room (i.e. the smallest room) at the W hotel in Buckhead. Thom Felicia is the Interior Designer and I think he did a great job.  Our room really looked fabulous.  I like that this property didn't look ultra modern like the other W properties that I have been to. It was contemporary, with old charms mixed in with modern pieces.  The rest of the hotel has the same look as well.


The next day, we visited CNN and were given an insider tour of the studios.  We went inside a control room while a live show was on air and, in front of a different studio, waved to an anchor who was preparing to go on air.  It was super cool.


The World of Coca Cola was right across the park from CNN.  I was so excited to go there, given that Coke has been my most favorite drink all these years. 

This is what "Mr. Coke" (aka Mr. Pemberton, the inventor of Coca Cola) looked like.  He was hanging out by the entrance.









 There were a few rooms filled with original ads from the 50's, 60's and 70's from around the world.  Look what we finally found in the last room.  Look at the guy and the girl dancing in the back... hahaha.
