I decided to go back about a month and share photos from the last day of our vacation. We visited the coke museum in Atlanta on our way home from the mountains. I've always wanted to go because I'm such a fan of diet coke.
We learned about the history of the drink. It was invented by a pharmacist in Atlanta in 1886. Oh, and we learned that coke's best selling drink is none other than diet coke. I'm not surprised.
The best part was getting to taste unusual soft drinks from all over the world. My favorite was this green drink that was pear flavored.
There are just a few rules.
- submit the url of your blog post, not your home page
- link up a photo that was taken by you
- include a link back to my blog in your post (you can use the button or a text link if you prefer)
- visit a few other blogs and leave comments
Okay, now let's see what you've been doing with your camera!
The museum looks like fun; I think I'd enjoy sampling too! : )

ReplyDeleteThank you for your sweet comments. Just discovered your new meme. I would assume This or That means anything, right?
ReplyDeleteYour photos are fantastic, Deb!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy this meme very much because it gives me a wide range of things to post, and not restricted to just one specific subject, which some time couldn't be accommodate since life happens..Looking forward to more!
Would you believe I lived in Atlanta for years and never made it to the Coke museum? That pear drink looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteI love diet Coke too. Looks like a fun trip.
