I went to a conference in Atlanta once and stayed at a hotel whose lobby looked like the galactic senate chamber in Star Wars.

Try to avoid GA 400/I-285… that is a traffic hellscape.

They have a truly world class aquarium downtown. Must see.

The Consulate is also a fabulous restaurant that rotates its menu monthly to reflect a different country’s cuisine.

The traffic still sucks. Actually if there's something beyond suck, it does that. We go down for Braves games occasionally because the wife is a fan. Drove from the area around Truist (then Sun Trust) Park to Stone Mountain. What should have been an hour round trip drive was a three-plus hour bumper-to-bumper nightmare, and that was on a Saturday with no construction or accidents that I saw. It was horrible. I can't even imagine how bad it must be during weekday rush hour. I'll never drive there again.

Good luck.

I love aquariums as I once wanted to be an oceanographer and am a certified scuba diver.

I'll look up The Consulate.

Thank you.

Google says it doesn't exist.

I need to send all my money to Nigeria to register though right? ROFL

Don't go to that restaurant during Inuit month.

"Our appetizer is raw whale blubber. The main entree will be raw walrus blubber. And for dessert? Raw seal blubber."

If you have a nuke handy... take it and detonate... I hear it is a blast. Especially in that town.

I still use MARTA because of the traffic if visiting. Pretty fast to airport as well.

There's also another world class science institution nearby, the Tellus Science Museum, in Cartersville, about 45 minutes from where you will be staying.

Lots of rap concerts to attend!
