Matthew and I took a short, mid-week vacation to Atlanta this week to watch the US men's soccer team play in the semifinals of the North American Gold Cup. Before the game we met up with my cousin and her two kids for lunch (no photos). Then we checked in to a hotel where we met Emily (Matthew's sister) and her husband Miran. The four of us headed to the Georgia Dome to watch both semifinal games. Unfortunately, the US lost their game but the second game was quite exciting between Mexico and Panama.
It was a late night watching the games, we didn't get back to the hotel until about 2:00 am. In the morning Matthew and I went to Bodies, The Exhibition, where we learned about all the different organ systems of the human body with real and well displayed specimens. Emily and Miran elected to visit Coke instead.
After meeting back up with Emily and Miran for lunch at a delicious Mediterranean restaurant we all signed up for a tour of CNN. Here is a mock room where they showed us how each broadcast is set up.
And here's a shot of one of the rooms of writers.
We didn't get any photos of the four of us, but here is one of Matthew and I after the tour. We parted ways after this and headed home. It was a long two days but a fun mid-week break!
It was a fun quick trip! Great pictures.
