Six Flags!

One of the biggest perks of my job is that one night each year, Six Flags (the amusement park in Atlanta) is open only to Coca-Cola employees and their guests. Oh, yeah! As a roller coaster junkie, I look forward to this night all year! Will Harrison be a roller coaster junkie, too? Hope so... This year he seemed to be okay with (and even enjoy!) the rides that stayed on the ground (the log ride, the train rides, the truck ride) but did not like the flying rides much (the flying pirate ships, the kiddie "free fall," and the sky buckets). That's okay -- I'm afraid of the sky buckets, too!

Let's do this!! And there they are -- all six flags.

First ride!

"Ooh! A pirate ship!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa -- Nobody said anything about going in the air..."

He insisted -- even when we found out that he would have to go by himself. This one was scary -- he remembered it enough to say "Scary" when he saw the photo later. Poor honey!

But we more than made up for the scary ride with this truck ride!! Harrison rode in the cab and steered us around and around the track; Mama and Dada rode in the back of the truck. Rode this ride more than once!




Harrison got to drive on both of the steering wheels!


First of two train rides -- Thomas the Tank Engine

Second of two train rides -- the big train that loops around the park. Harrison is serving as the ambassador. :)

Will we go back next year? Oh, yes, we will!
