Luxurious digs through AirBnB--more similar to a hostel |
For those of you who are not speech pathologists, let me explain. I'm
going to attend a convention tomorrow--the American Speech and Language
Association national convention in Atlanta. To make it a family adventure, my
husband came along (he has no interest in ASHA though). Today was the
pre-ASHA fun day for me. I'll just post the pictures here--you read the
captions and notes--you'll see that sometimes, we like more of the
unconventional.

Day care center with actual bars--we walk by this to get to MARTA |

3 stops to the convention |

Took in some geocaching. This guy wanted to know what we were doing. |
What would a Morgan trip be without
geocaching? Look at the photo above and you'll see that not everyone knows it's simply a high tech treasure hunt with a GPS. The Andrew Young statue has a geocache hidden under his shoe---tricky to find!
I needed to pick up my packet of stuff for ASHA--beating the long lines that will be there tomorrow. Over 10,000 of us are converging on the convention center!
We visited the Martin Luther King National Historic Site. Everyone needs to go there.

MLK birth home |
We walked around historic
Oakland Cemetery for a bit (geocaching). Notice the name of the restaurant/bar in the background.

Tomorrow, I'll be sitting in seminars. Today, I feel like I got a taste of the real Atlanta. I love where our room is---in a house, in a neighborhood, literally on the other side of the tracks. I'll keep you posted on how the next few days go!

What fun! I love 6 Feet Under, yum! Looking forward to seeing you soon!
