Six Flags over Georgia

[iwishiwasthere]

one of our favorite parks is busch gardens at williamsburg virginia - anyone been there ?

Oh yeah!!:clap_1: We had a wonderful time there. The park theme is really entertaing. Haven't been in a while. It is one of my top places to go. Have also been to the one in Tampa. It is really different but lots of fun. Both parks have good rides!! We used to go to theme pasrks a lot, but now just hang out at the beach.

Isn't that college Bball tourn. in Atlanta? If so, prepare for some traffic.

If it is anything like Busch in Tampa, I imagine it is beautiful!

I just booked a hotel next to the park and only 9 miles from downtown.

Now the next question. How long, on a Saturday evening, should it take me to drive from Six Flags to Philips Arena.
The concert is at 8pm. I like to get there an hour early, just in case. Maybe an hour and a half. I decided to wait to get there, and eat at the CNN building. I'm going to try that Mexican restaurant again, with the giant sombrero's hanging from ceiling.

Its only 9 miles from the motel to downtown. But I know it took me nearly 45 minutes to go from Marietta, 12 miles to Philips for Barbara.

At that time of day (6:30) it will still be rush hour, but you'll be going against traffic. I'd leave 30 minutes for getting in the general area and maybe a few more minutes for finding parking.

I also want to revisit Stone Mountain and there was a civil war museum somewhere that was a round room with 3 dimensional characters that blended in with the wall mural. I'm diggin' back in memories from over 30 years ago so bear with me. Anyone know what that might be? The Carving on Stone Mountain wasn't even finished when I was there last!

You may be thinking about the Cyclorama in Grant Park? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanta_Cyclorama

I've been there a couple of times too, but drunkenartist convinced me that it was at Stone Mtn. I guess as a tourist, you probably do both of them on the same day.
