Hot in Atlanta!

If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm tired!!  We have gone & done so much this summer trying to give the girls a good experience, but it has worn me down!  (Not to mention my house is a wreck!)  We had one week overlap of the Russian girl and the French girl so we chose that week to visit a "city".  Originally, I thought I'd be fine with my boys and the girls alone, but in the end I enlisted the help of a local teacher friend so it wouldn't be me alone with the kids!  We had a great condo in downtown - we could walk everywhere.  We did a lot of walking and the boys did surprisingly well even though the heat/humidity was almost too much for me.  In two days, we visited Coke World, the Georgia Aquarium, CNN center, Centennial Park, Turner Field, and finally, Atlantic Station for a little shopping.  The toughest part was the 330 mile drive!

JT was in Coke paradise - I let him drink as much as he wanted!  I think Solène tried all 41 flavors.

At Centennial Park

This was a real aquarium behind us with live coral.  Although the GA Aquarium is expensive, I would strongly recommend it.
