Atlanta

alright, we got a few days behind here, so I'm gonna try and start getting caught up.

thursday we drove down to atlanta to find something to do. we left pretty late in the afternoon so we were getting there well into the evening. about the time we got into the actual mid-town atlanta area the bottom dropped out of the sky. it was ridiculous, barely drivable. and it rained on and off for the rest of the night. we got into the area and then decided what we wanted to do. (kinda backwards, I know.) food sounded good, specifically pizza, so Knicely said Fellini's was good. at the time we're in Little Five Points, which is a town inside of Atlanta. everyone and their dog had said we had to go there, so we did. problem is, the Fellini's that Knicely remembers isn't here. so off we go in the rain, following Knicely's directions. (you'd think we would have learned. but no.) at this point I'm driving and I narrowly kill us lots and lots of times. sam and knicely are not happy. so we finally get there, and the pizza is pretty good, I think it was worth it.

after we ate same decided to take over driving. the plan was to go back to Little Five Points and get coffee and maybe go to a bookstore. so we had back, it's still raining on and off and we're still following Knicely's direction. and after all the complaining about my driving, now we see sam's not any better. at one point Knicely tells sam to turn left, and sam does, and we have 4 lanes of traffic coming at us on a 1-way road. thing is, sam didn't even realize it at first. then when the cars in our lane started flashing their lights at us, that's when he realized what was going on. eventually tho, we get back to Little Five only to find the coffee shop is closed. so off to the bookstore we go, to find it's closed too. so we just walked around and looked at the graffiti. which was pretty impressive, sadly I had left my camera in the car. I know, stupid. but if yall are ever in the atlanta area then check out Little Five Points. there wasn't much for us to do because at night all the fun is at places I can't get into, and we arne't active enough in the day to get there in time. but perhaps another time we'll see it in the day time.
