At the end of our SE Coaster Trip in August 2023, we spent a weekend in Atlanta. In addition to visiting SFOG, linked below, we also visited the aquarium, the Coca-Cola museum (videos coming soon), and Trader Vic's Atlanta, located downstairs at the Midtown Atlanta Hilton. It's the only remaining US location located in a hotel, and one of only 3 US locations remaining period. It's a great time capsule, and still a very enjoyable evening. Take a look!
Six Flags Over Georgia - our first time! Let's ride some coasters and complain about the heat!
Here it is, the last official theme park stop on our 2023 SE Coaster Tour. We can now cross Six Flags Over Georgia off of our "to visit" list EXCEPT we need to go back. First, Monster Mansion was closed so right there we need to go back. And while we rode the top coasters on our list, we didn't ride them all, because Hotlanta was living up to its name. So it goes. Come along for a short tour of some of SFOG's coasters, and laugh at the old people overheating. Enjoy!
SE Coaster Tour 2023: Frizzle Chicken, Dollywood, Buc-ee's, and the road to the ATL.
It's out 2nd day at Dollywood. We started at the Frizzle Chicken Cafe. Mahalo to @SuperEnthused for bringing this to our attention. Then we headed to Dollywood and finally obtained our Cinnamon Bread Achievement Badge. Thanks to both @ExpeditionThemePark and @SuperEnthused for the enthusiastic endorsement. Once we left Dollywood, we're on the road to Atlanta with a (two) stop(s) at Buc-ee's on the way. Excellent and met the hype. Then we settle in at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis for a weekend of Georgian adventure. Enjoy!
SE Coaster Tour 2023: Beans, beers, and (Jurassic) boats...our rainy day in Pigeon Forge!
Back to back Dollywood days were interrupted by rainy weather. No problem - we switched it up and decided to head to some pure tourist attractions - the Bush's Beans visitor center and the Jurassic Boat Ride. In the middle? a local brewery, Iron Forge. Come along for the ride, come back next time for more Dollywood. Enjoy!
SE Coaster Tour '23: Our first trip to Dollywood...Big Bears and sensory overload!
Continuing our 2023 SE coaster tour, we made it to Pigeon Forge and Dollywood. It lived up to the hype, even though we needed more than 1 day to appreciate the entire park. More to come, but for now enjoy Big Bear Mountain and more!
