We have internet access again. Therefore, I will provide you with this update.
We left Mississippi on Saturday and made our way to Atlanta. With 5.2 Million people, it's a pretty congested place. The kids made their way to the Atlanta Aquarium. It is the largest aquarium in the world! They even have a contingent of whale sharks. I do know the kids loved it and they even got to pet sharks and sting reys! And, of course, they all came back singing, "Baby Beluga, Baby Beluga."
Of course, I can't tell you much about that trip in that I was at the Atlanta International Airport picking up our other Jesus. It's said to be the "busiest" airport in the U.S. I sat at the passenger receiving area where the trams would unload all the passangers and send them up an escalator. Therefore, every couple of minutes about 250 people would ascend up the escalator where a hundred more were waiting to greet them. So, about every 10 minutes you would see about a 1,000 people. It's not easy to find Jesus in a crowd like that. Eventually, however, I did and Brett Wesley joined our fun.
We then all headed to the Atlanta Braves baseball game where it was Jimmy Buffet Parrothead Night. They had a tribute band that held a concert before the game. The National Anthem was played by the tribute band's harmonica player. There weren't even any words sung. Needless to say, our group was very disappointed and felt like we surely would have been more effective. The Braves won and a good time was had by all.
From our seats, you had a beautiful view of downtown Atlanta, including the Olympic Torch tower where a bomb exploded during the Atlanta olympics.
We got home very late and went to bed.
