Mid-Dec 2006. We fially have managed to get away for a little trip. Sadly it is without the RV as it is in the shop for repairs. However, as we already had our tickets for the Cowboys/Falcons football game, we were not going to let a broken RV interupt our game plans. So we packed up the jeep drove to Atlanta staying in the Omni Hotel adjoining the CNN center. I have to say, this was pretty neat. We were able to walk to the Georgia Dome for the game on game night. The rest of the time we were able to walk to a local MARTA station for all the other places we visited while in town. One of those other places was the Atlanta Museum of High Arts where a gift presentation of art was on loan from the Louvre in Paris. Scupltures, paintings and some never before displayed drawings by the masters. Unfortunatly, my small camera blitzed out me for this trip so all pics were from the big Olympus. Great shots but bulky to carry around. Bottom line very few shots of this trip, big, we weren't allowed to take pictures in the museum anyway. This shot was taken from the open air hallway toour room. The globe depicts the entrance to the tourist walk around the CNN newsroom. The bottom floor is a food court/gift shop area. We stayed on the 14th floor. Pretty nice hotel.
