Oh man!! I'm joining your team for a couple hours for the Medieval Times trip. lol j/k

But seriously, if you have never been to a Medieval Times restaurant/show it's an experience you won't soon forget.

Eating with your bare hands, live horses & a joust between about 4 Knights (one of which who's color-coded section you will in when you go eat) and then a lucky female audience member from the winning Knights section gets to be the princess and ride off with the Knight. lol

My sister got chosen for that since our Knight won, and she was picked from the audience. She felt all special getting to be the princess. lol

Good times.

Where is it anyways? Pretty close to the GA Dome area, or a bit away from the center of the activities? I don't recall seeing any mention of it anywhere as of yet, but then again haven't been actively seeking it out.

Give yourself three hours or so and you ought to be okay -- maybe a bit longer if you want to read every placard. As I recall, we spent about that much time inside and were able to eat there as well. I certainly took the longest of the group to see everything and I was satisfied after about 2.5 hours.

I believe you need reservations - it would be wise to check, anyway.

The Georgia Aquarium reservation website. As of right now any date appears to be open but typically the weekends are of course more crowded. It is POSSIBLE that you might not get in if you try to just go down there and enter without a reservation but just can't be sure. Be advised also that they are open until 5PM Mon-Thurs and 6PM Fri-Sun. It is really quite an enjoyable place if you enjoy the sea life.

Re: Spicing Up Your ATL Trip

I would definitely recommend the Georgia Aquarium to anyone coming from out of state, especially if you have never bin there before
The whale shark exibit makes the whole trip worth while.
It really amazing
And of course
if you are going to Atlanta its a requirement you go to the Varsity
hahaha
