We had some painters in our house last weekend, so we decided to play hometown tourist and give the fumes some time to get out. We headed down to have lunch at Veni, Vidi, Vici; we were sad to learn they were closing but glad we made it by to have agnolotti once last time. From there we drove down to the Marriott Marquis. We all loved the view from our room.
We spent pretty much all afternoon in the pool. It's a really great one. It's a combo indoor/outdoor one, they provide pool noodles which we all love, and there's a hot tub. The girls made a couple of new friends too which was sweet. Finally, it was time to head in for dinner. You know what that means...club sandwich from room service, my favorite!
Just hanging out with this cutie.
On Saturday we went over to The World of Coke. The girls had never been, and it's something every Atlantan needs to do in their life. Given that they rarely drink Coke (in fact, I think this was their first time to have real Coke instead of a product like Sprite or Fanta), this was quite a treat for them. They loved it, well, until they tried the Beverly from Italy. It was fun to see their reaction to that famous product (see Mia's face in the bottom middle of this collage).
We all enjoyed seeing the different bottles too, especially the ones from Morocco, China and India, three countries that hold special places in our hearts.
What a fun way to show a little hometown pride!
