The Usual Attractions

Six flags

Everybody loves Six Flags. Just get on a rollercoaster and scream out every frustration.

White waters

I love White Waters, its coolest place to hang out in the summer

Museums to Amuse

Fernbank museum

Fernbank has good food and changing exhibits. It’s good for when you want that interesting yet smoother pace. http://www.fernbankmuseum.org/

Zoo atlanta

I love animals so this is just an awesome place for me personally. Also if you just want to walk in nature and enjoy a cool day, this is the place to do it.

Georgia aquarium

I am dying to see the new dolphin show. Just another great place to spend with family or friends. http://www.georgiaaquarium.org/

World of Coca-Cola

You get to make your own flavor at the end of the tour, and I personally love most coca cola products so its an awesome place. Also if you live in Atlanta and you’ve never been, shame on you. http://www.worldofcoca-cola.com/

Atlanta botanical gardens

Pretty flowers and in my opinion it would be a great place for a date. http://www.atlantabotanicalgarden.org/
