Today I spent in downtown Atlanta. It was the first time I had ever been to Atlanta even though I am from Georgia. It was hot but incredible. There is so much to do here and the aquarium is quite relaxing. I definitely suggest going there. The best part about Atlanta is seeing the 1996 Olympic torch Park.
