memorabilia from President Carter’s term in<br />

office of 1976-1981. Perhaps the most unique<br />

item on display is a replica of the Crown of St.<br />

Stephen, or the “Holy Crown of Hungary”. At<br />

the end of World War Two, the royal crown<br />

was transferred by Hungary to the U.S. Army<br />

to keep it from falling into the hands of the<br />

approaching Soviet army. It remained in<br />

protective custody here in the United States<br />

at the U.S. Gold Depository at Fort Knox<br />

Kentucky until 1978 when President Carter<br />

returned it to its home country. Hungary<br />

presented a replica to President Carter in<br />

1998 and it is on permanent display at the<br />

Carter Museum, a reminder of Hungarian<br />

appreciation and respect.<br />

IF YOU WANT A WHIMSICAL ACTIVITY,<br />

check out The World of Coca-Cola. You can<br />

sample a myriad of different ‘experimental’<br />

tastes, check out a thousand historical<br />

artifacts pertaining to Coca-Cola, see the<br />

actual bottling process, and view a short film<br />

on the history of the most famous soft drink<br />

on earth. You can even enter the vault where<br />

the world’s best kept secret is kept—the topsecret<br />

recipe that has been hidden away for<br />

over 100 years. The World of Coca-Cola is<br />

located at Pemberton Place, named after<br />

the inventor of Coca-Cola, and is situated<br />

directly across from Centennial Olympic<br />

Park. The park is also the home of the Georgia<br />

Aquarium. Make a day of it and go to the<br />

aquarium and then help teach the world to<br />

sing and enjoy a Coke.<br />

IS THAT EVERYTHING TO DO WHEN<br />

you visit Atlanta? Of course not. I haven’t<br />

even mentioned the Underground Atlanta<br />

Shopping District, CNN studios, the<br />

Fernbank Museum of Natural History, the<br />

Atlanta History Center, Oakland Cemetery,<br />

or the Center for Civil and Human Rights.<br />

There is a museum for Puppetry Arts, a<br />

Walking Dead Big Zombie tour, and a<br />

visit to the Swan House, a testament to the<br />

lifestyle of the southern rich and famous<br />

from the 1930’s. And a hundred other things<br />

too numerous to list.<br />

The next time you’re considering a<br />

vacation, put Atlanta on your list. You won’t<br />

run out of things to do and now that Atlanta<br />

is an Ultimate Air destination, it just doesn’t<br />

get any easier to get there. n<br />
