As the christmas vacation is nearby we, all indian families r thinking to spend vacation on going out and seeing the places .15 days before the vacation time we all started planning. gents r making plans in the office and ladies r planning on their own .first we decided to go to florida and booked rental car and ladies even completed planning what to wear ,cook etc., but due to some reasons we cancelled that florida trip and planned to go to atlanta which is 5 hrs drive from kingsport.
I got very excited about the trip as it was the first long drive in US......
Atlanta is the major commercial and transportation hub of the southeast United States, and its international airport is one of the busiest in the world.. and Atlanta is home to many major corporations, including Coca-Cola, which was founded there in 1892.it is also a major educational center, with many prestigious universities ....
In Atlanta ,fiirst we went to see coke museum."ooooohh" there r different flavours of coke with different tastes made by different countries.ofcourse i liked indian coke. hahah
Next day we went to CNN. it is a huge building .The studio tour features a number of behind-the-scenes demonstrations. Here you'll learn just how they make images--like weather maps--appear behind the anchors and correspondents. Here you can make a video of yourself reading the day's top news stories, or have your picture taken with a variety of Turner personalities on the Studio Chromakey.
Control Room Theater---A one of its kind, re-creation of CNN's main control room, where guests will see and hear the truly behind-the-scenes elements of 24-hours news, live. this is worth seeing......
Next we went to GEORGIA AQUARIUM.It is the Largest Aquarium in the World .Georgia Aquarium opened on November 23, 2005.The Aquarium will enhance Georgia tourism and provide local residents with a world-class entertainment attraction they will want to visit again and again .it has More than 100,000 Animals from 500 Species and Eight Million Gallons of Fresh and Marine Water . Located in Downtown Atlanta, across from Centennial Olympic Park and the Georgia World Congress Center. "aah" there r so many places to visit in Atlanta..
Zoo is also Worth watching.From there we went to INTERNATIONAL MARKET., ah i was dying to c that market as i heard that there we get all types of vegetables ,groceries which we find in India. But this place is incredible and it has a mind-boggling selection of international foods and all sorts of standard and unique veggies and fruits. Infinitely better quality than those available in standard stores. I was really confused what to pick and what not,but made a big bill to my husband.Its a long time we were on roads , so decided to go back to rest.
Next morning it was raining a lot but we decided to see the temple in Atlanta,which is very famous..."oh" god it is really good.... .Indian temple in usa "WOW"that too beautifully constructed .I felt blessed seeing lord Venkateswara..The main IDOL really look like tirupathi Venkateswara..
Our trip was completed and successful with many worth seeings ..
But this trip was incomplete if i wont mention about INDIAN RESTAURANT .On our way back ,we landed in MINERVA restaurant .After a long time we tasted Indian food stuff in USA..While we were entering we got to hear a lot of old hindi movie songs which i cant forget...there we ordered large pesarrattu,uttappam etc., and enjoyed a lot.. With a joy filled heart we returned to kingsport
This trip had a great experience ,which will remain as an indelible memory in my life
