We went last year and are going again this year...besides the competition
there are workshops on robotics,Vex and FLL championships.
Then there is the after event socials and stuff to do in Atlanta itself.
Its something you'll always remember.
A word of advice...don''t hang around downtown atlanta by yourself...
go in groups and don't go out very late...the downtown changes
after dark.

ERM: its not that bad compared to NY after dark, up a;ll sorts of weirdos and creatures pop out of all the nooks and cranies where as in atlanta they do it much more civilized and chase you for a block and a half and then give up and go to stalk someone else =)
Behind the Westin Hotel theres a Hooters and a Mc Donalds <---- 24HR Spot =) found out the last day right before I checked out that it actually exsisted how sad was that after all the nights me and my sister starved excellent view if you stay on the top floors of the Omni , CNN Building and the georgia dome !
