Weekend Fun: ATLANTA

I got a chance to spend my weekend in Atlanta this weekend. I wasn't really in a mood to party or go out most of the weekend but I did get a chance to see some fun, cool, and interesting places in Atlanta. So Friday I spent most of the day in the airport. I touched down in ATL around 3 p.m. and just took some time to unwind. Later that night I went to dinner in Little 5 Points at a restaurant called The Porter. They have the bar area where you can choose from many different draft beers and they have a pretty good wine selection, but they also have a great food. My favorite part was dessert, an apple beignet served a la mode. yum...

Saturday I went to enjoy the World of Coca-Cola in downtown ATL and spent the remainder of the day shopping. Little 5 Points has a great selection of vintage stores and thrift stores. I found a really nice Michael Kors sweater in one of the vintage stores!! I also went to a clothing boutique called Wish they have a great sneaker selection on their bottom floor. After leaving Little 5 Points I spent the remainder of the afternoon at the mall. Most of the retail stores were having great sales. They're clearing out all of the winter apparel to get ready for spring. 

Sunday I went to brunch at Thumbs Up Diner and went on a tour at the CNN Global Headquarters. Unfortunately I was not able to take any photos while on the tour. But it was definitely very interesting. If you ever get a chance to come to ATL you should check it out. 

Here's some photos from my weekend as an ATLien!
