georgia aquarium

For Christmas, I gave my sister a ticket to go see the new Georgia Aquarium. (By the way, I love the design of their website.) It opened a little over a month ago, and is the world’s largest aquarium. It was pretty incredible, and we both enjoyed it. I’d love to go back during a non-holiday season when the crowds are sure to be lighter. And if I can ever afford it, I’d love to get a season pass. I’d…

I only stopped once for…

almost home

Well some of the things I needed to do got done. My car was *finally* finished yesterday night, so I picked it up. I feel a little nervous about traveling when I just had such extensive work done, but at least I don’t have to delay my trip. Since I didn’t get the car until late last night there were several things I wasn’t able to do. (1) Get my emissions tested and therefore my plates renewed. (2) Go to…
