So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Here you will find the world's largest aquarium that opened in 2005; no doubt that you already know that Atlanta is also home of the popular soda, Coca Cola. Aside from these there are many other things that you will discover in the wonderful city of Atlanta.

Aside from the many restaurants, parks and tourist spots one very interesting thing about Atlanta are the historic homes. You will find a good number of old homes and even mansions that have been around even before the war. These provide great destinations if you have a penchant for things of the past. The wide gardens also make for ideal wedding venues or parties.

Some people are so enthralled with these historic homes that they even purchase them. There are a number of historic homes in Atlanta which are for sale. Many of them have been restored to their old beauty, others have been maintained. However there are also those which have become a bit run down and need to be restored by those buying it.

There are many experts around Atlanta who can help with things like these. They will be able to clean and polish the tiles and grout bringing back its old beauty.
