Time flies when you're havin' fun!

Last weekend Dudi and headed of town to celebrate our 9 year anniversary!!! I can't believe it has been that long! Craziness!
My parents generously took our children and gave us that much needed time alone. We headed to Atlanta and enjoyed as much of downtown as we could.
Of course we checked out the new aquarium ( I felt a little guilty going without the kids...oh well). They had this awesome Titanic exhibit going on, it was one of my favorite parts.
Dudi's favorite was the Beluga whales. They were huge!


We also went to the "World of Coke" museum. We had fun trying all the drinks from countries around the world. All I can say is Djibouti can keep its drinks! YUCK!
We took a romantic stroll through the Olympic park (okay, so not really romantic. It was like 9 in the morning and we were walking through it to get to the museums).
The below picture will require some explaining. We were so excited to go the the Braves game on Friday night. Dudi had got AWESOME 6th row tickets right next to the dugout. They were so good. We got to the stadium @ 6:30 for a 7:00 game. Five minutes after we sit down, it starts. Not just rain... the heaven's opened up and dumped buckets of water for the next 31/2 hours (look at the pic!). Obviously the sky was black and there was no chance that the rain was going to let up. Did they call it a rain out? No.
We had to wait (or they wouldn't give us make-up tickets) until 9 pm, for them to decide that they weren't going to play--come on, you are wasting my childless time here! There was a bright spot though. We had to get new tickets and the Dodgers are coming (Dudi's favorite team), so we will get another date night to see them. We did have to settle for seats a little higher up though. Oh well... I'm just a little bitter still.
The highlight of the trip for Dudi was this.
Fogo De Chao.
It was yummy (thanks for the recommendation, Leash). He talked about this meal the entire weekend. We'll definitely be going back next time we are in Atlanta.
It was a great weekend. Thanks for putting up with me for 9 years, Dudi! I love you.
