Road trip: Atlanta

Atlanta is great! We started the day with the best pancakes ever:

Corn on the left, sweet potato on the right

Then we went to the Center for Civil and Human Rights, which is a really cool interactive museum about the US civil rights movement historically and the global human rights movement today. The most intense part is when you sit at a model lunch counter wearing headphones, and listen to people screaming and jeering at you while your chair shakes and lurches as if it's being kicked. It's only three minutes long, but it's a very difficult three minutes. We didn't take any pictures in the museum, but here's a few shots of the outside, which is gorgeous:

The museum itself

And looked at small Coke bottles from around the world:

Why is Croatia wearing a tie?

Watched Coke being bottled:

Wondered what the heck this thing is:

Wondered if this memo about "Project Kansas" (aka New Coke) could possibly be real:

And sampled Coke products from around the world:

Lastly, in the section about Coke and sports, there was a triangle of Coke bottles featuring Boston, Philadelphia, and San Francisco, which seemed appropriately symbolic:

We spent the night having great dinner with great friends, and tomorrow it's off to Jackson!
