Trip to Atlanta

Is my 1st trip out to another city in Georgia. Atlanta! It was a 4 hours of ride there which i spend like most of time staring out of the windows looking at trees, trees and tress again. I can't wait to walk up the trail of Stone mountain to see the lovely sight.

We started off going to the JapanFest event held there. (That's what SCAD bring us there for.) We settled down for lunch first and then we walk around abit around the fair. Japanese food are selling at a really steep price, still there is a long line dying to try the food. Saw a few really adorable japanese kids in their traditional costumes. Americans are performing and demostrating some of the japanese stuffs. I don't really like how the whole event is being carried out but i shan't comment. :)

Next, time to head on to what we have plan. Climb Stone mountain! It wasn't a high mountain but enought to see the landscapes across the city. We took around an hour - 2 hours to reach the top. The weather is freaky hot and sunny but ....Arr.... the sense of accomplishment!!! I just love the view, the feeling of a nice work out and the cold coke running down my dry throat. I am so missing the trekking trips. I do hope to camp or trek in the wild soon...hee...

Anyway, check out the pics here ........
