Author: David Reichman

Atlanta is the state of Georgia's largest city and is
filled with fun summer things to do for this season's
holidaymakers. People with children of different ages will
find themselves with their hands full of all the
family-oriented attractions and activities that the city
has to offer.

Before you start your summer vacation and wander around
with your family, get yourselves the Atlanta CityPass that
will give you instant admissions to the most popular
attractions in the city. The Atlanta CityPass not only
gives you great savings on cash, but also helps you save on
time as you no longer need to fall in line for tickets for
every attraction. The Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola,
High Museum of Art, Atlanta Botanical Gardens, Zoo Atlanta,
Atlanta History Center and Fernbank Museum of Natural
History are just some of the places you can go to with the
Atlanta CityPass.

Note: The High Museum of Art currently features the works
of professional photographer, Sheila Pree Bright, entitled
Young Americans. The exhibit shows photographs of young
American adults with captions that state their opinions and
sentiments about American culture and society. This display
will run until August 10th 2008.

If you have children ages 2 to 8, the Imagine It!
Children's Museum of Atlanta is highly recommended. Your
kids will be encouraged and excited to learn new things
with the museum's colorful hands-on exhibits. There are so
many things to see, listen to, touch and explore in this
30,000 square-foot establishment, even older kids and
parents are going to find themselves enjoying the place!

The Fabulous Fox Theater presents the Coca-Cola Summer Film
Festival. The Fox, as it is more popularly called, has the
biggest screen in Atlanta and features blockbuster hits of
the past and present. This August, The Fox adds a few more
movies that will definitely draw dozens of moviegoers
including Iron Man, Kung Fu Panda and Indiana Jones -
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

If you wish to spice your family summer vacation up with a
little adventure, then Georgia's Stone Mountain State Park
is right for you. Sixteen miles east of Atlanta stands the
3,200 acre-park that centers the world's largest exposed
granite mountain. The first thing you should do when you
get to the park is to ride the sky-lift gondolas that will
take you over 800 feet above ground, giving you the most
beautiful views of Georgia's countryside. Within the park
are other interesting things to see and do such as a
petting zoo, a riverboat, an antique automobile museum and
an antebellum plantation. Be sure to settle your family in
the park's campgrounds or any of its other lodging options
for the laser light show in the evening, which is a regular
event in Stone Mountain State Park during the summer.

Atlanta sure is rich of cool surprises for everyone taking
a vacation. It has been among the most sought for getaways
for families, couples and those who prefer traveling alone.
Top the above mentioned attractions and activities with the
city's wide selection of dining options, and you are
definitely bound to have one of the best family summer
vacations.
