An Atlanta day trip



We had lunch at The Varsity
in ATL.  It has been a while since we had been to the original Varsity.  Yes it was yummy as well as unhealthy!

Sixfeet Under Cafe near Oakland Cemetery 
In addition to oysters, we also had rat toes (check out the menu) and hot shrimp.  Another item we did not try but thought was very interesting was cucumber wasabi dressing.

We wanted to tour Oakland Cemetery 
but, we could only walk outside the wall due to the recent tornadoes in the area.  We peeked at some areas and it was amazing and sad to see such large trees down.  We are certainly going back for the tour when they are open again.
After our long walk we stopped by Sixfeet Under for some great seafood.  We will be going back there again as well and highly recommend it if you are in the area (it is near the Grant Park - Zoo ATL area)

We also made a visit to the The High Museum for the O'Keeffe exhibit.  I had seen it once earlier, but it was worth a second trip.  

We did a brief stop by IKEA.  It was the first trip for us both.  I thought it was really cool, but Steve was unimpressed.  Don't worry, I will go again with out him!
