Cobb County: Marietta, Georgia

We had a day in Atlanta before our flight, we decided to explore Marietta, Georgia...about 30 minutes outside Atlanta.


 The first order of business was to obtain a set of wheels, $35.00 later we were heading toward Marietta.


 One of the biggest reasons of traveling to Marietta was to visit the Museum of Gone with the Wind. It didn't disappoint, it was the largest museum in the world. ACTUALLY, scratch all of that. Fortunately I have a big sister that I think studied Gone with the Wind or was Scarlett in another life and insisted that we go to the museum.
 Downtown Marietta, the square resembles Savannah, Georgia.  Its very quaint with lots of little antique stores and eateries. 


 We went to the cutest tea house on the square with a great view over the city. They had great quiche, chicken salad sandwiches and of course PEACH tea. You can't go to Georgia without getting a taste of their peaches.


 

To top the meal off we had Gelato. Joseph's ice cream was of course the most fattening, I had low fat sherbet :)
