Time in Georgia!!

I went to Georgia from 6/5/07 - 6/9/07

Day 1

I left Washington Dulles around 12:30. I had to use a kiosk, it was a machine for me to check-in, I didn't get my seat until I arrived at the gate. My flight was short it was only 1 1/2 hours! It is sooo much better than flight to Thailand! LoL. This was my second time flight domestic in the US. I usually go to Thailand. So, it was a little weird for me that the baggage claim was outside, where anyone could go get it. Steph picked me up with her friend Leslie. They took me to Virginia Highlands to eat @ Figo and get Gelato. We saw this Thai Mural!! I took a picture of it. Its weird how out of no where there is this wall with Thai pictures and Thai writing. Next, I went to Georgia Tech to walk around. We then met up with Katherine and then Lisa and we went to Ru Sans to each Japanese food. I had dinner with Steph, Leslie, Katherine, Lisa, Drew, Ashley, Meagan, Ryan, Heather and Art and there was me! That's 11 of us. That was my day. Went to Steph's house which takes around 45 mins in Newnan.

Day 2

Went to eat lunch at Georgia Tech in front of the campanile (that pointy statue thingy, u can see in the pictures) with Brandon, Steph, and Drew. We then went to the World of COKE! That's why u can see I took so many pictures at the "WORLD" of "COKE"... We saw a 4-D movie where the chairs moved also! and the movie was in 3-D. Oh! There was that polar bear! He was scary!!! I think drew was scared of it :-p He was freaky.. I put up clips of the bear. Finally we tasted different kinds of soft drinks/sodas from around the world. South America, and Africa had weird taste buds.. I didn't like any of their drinks. After, Steph and I stopped by Bath and Body to buy lotion and stuff, everything was on sale. Finally, went to Steph's sister's house (Laura) for dinner.

Day 3

I stayed in late. Steph and I went to the oriental market to buy some mushroom soy sauce and oyster sauce. I had brought 3 herbs from Maryland to make Tom Yum Goong. ( kah, takrai, makood & nam prik paow ) . So I made Tom Yum Goong and Kai Pad Kra Paow (Chicken and Basil) So that's what we had for lunch. Steph then went to the Dr. Met up Brandon while he ate and me and Steph had chips and queso (cheese). Steph got sorbet. We went to Ikea to see Meagan and Ryan. Then we came back to Bible study @ CCF (Christian Campus Fellowship). We saw Brandon play. I posted a clip of that too. That was the end of the night.

Day 4

Steph's sister (Melanie) went of Italy. So I woke up to say bye to her and when she left I had another 2 hours of sleep. We didn't do much. We had lunch and took Will (Steph's nephew) to the pool. He's 5. He was swimming for about 2 hours.. So I think I got a little tan from that.. I was under some shade though.. but the sun there was HOT. Later, we headed to Atlanta for dinner @ Chick - fil - A with Katherine. We went to the original Chick-fil-A. Oh! it was raining and a little thundering so we were sure if we were gonna go the baseball game or not.. but we ended up going. So I went to my 1st major league baseball game! It was fun but too bad the Atlanta Braves didn't win. They were playing against the Chicago Cubs. Then we saw fireworks!! That was fun!!

Day 5

I went to eat at Bobby and June's for Lunch. There was Me, Steph, Leslie, Brandon, Kam and Drew. So my last meal was southern food. I had Fried Chicken and mac n' cheese. Drew had to leave for a wedding so he was there for only a bit. Then about 10 mins later.. Drew was back again! LoL!! He said he didn't see a wedding at the church.. so he hung out with us for the rest of the afternoon. We went to a cafe called Octane. We saw Patrick there before I was going to get on my flight. I went to the airport and my flight got canceled !! I didn't really know what to do.. good thing that in DC there are 3 airports which I can go to from my house. So I told them that I could get on any flight that goes to DC. It's great living here. so this time I actually got 1st class this time ^_^ Lucky me! I used buddy passes and I don't get seats until the last minute.

Well that is my whole trip in Georgia!! Oh! This was also my 1st time on the plane by myself. I usually fly with a friend or family.

I would post pictures right here.. but there are a LOT!
