Charleston

More about Charleston
If you want to know more about the city itself click the link because it's everything there and I don't feel like writing all those (not all) useless information here.

In Charleston we went to Magnolia plantation. We went on tour with train and we watched all sort of animals: crocodiles, ducks, turtles, birds and so on.
But the tour was about what was it like on the plantation in past. The tour was about how african slave worked on plantation and there were the real preserved cottages where slaves lived.
It was interesting to learn about american history and civil war and everything.

That's really short I know. I'll put some pictures later cause right now they don't want to load on the blogger:(

Me and classic Coca-Cola polar bear in the back.

I'm guessing... You can't tell who's cuter, my brother or the kisser(creature from commercial):P

If you don't remember this creature it's from Coca-Cola famous commercial. The one that sticks with mouth to Coca-Cola bottle. The animated video for this commercial won 1st place for best animated video that year.


Some large Coca-Cola bottles with characteristics of country in which were made.

Atlanta=> Culture, History


Hot boys all the time! I have to say that most of the boys men has great style - hip hop style.

:$$



This is Underground Atlanta where actually everything started. When you go “under ground” you see streets like were in past and there are a lot of stalls, shops, restaurants. 

As you may notice in all of my pictures you see black people. I'm really not racist but I have to say that majority population of Atlanta city is black. 
I looked up to wikipedia for the answer and I find out that Atlanta was during the 1960s a major organizing center of the Civil Rights Movement, with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,Ralph David Abernathy, and students from Atlanta's historically Black colleges and universities playing major roles in the movement's leadership. 

NBA - Atlanta Hawks versus Orlando Magic

I was cheering for Orlando Magic because the game was in Atlanta and the whole hall was cheering for Atlanta's Hawks and I tried to support the other team. However Orlando Magic lost the game. The game was pretty tense. Especially Orlando players were under a lot of pressure cause every time they had free throws the whole hall was shouting BUUUUUU!



Me not dead tired yet :P


Basketball in America it's show for people. In the center of arena is cube TV screen and there are played all kinds of commercials, videos for supporting home team and so on. There are lights everywhere and it's really interesting atmosphere. There is always smell of hotdogs and all sorts of drinks nearby. 

White color for Hawks and blue for Magics. As a viewer of the match I got white T-shirt sponsored by Atlanta Hawks.

HUNGRYYY:D

Before the game started we were hungry, so we went to CNN center to eat something. 
If haven't mention it yet the Atlanta is capital city of Georgia. It's known to be the home city of Coca-cola company and CNN(that's why center with shops and food court named CNN). It also has the biggest aquarium in the world!!
There was only food court with fast food so I ate burrito. Unfortunately the food wasn't really tasty.

Atlanta City

We arrived to Atlanta city on the 23. april around 5 pm. The time difference between Ljubljana and Atlanta   is 6 hours, so we were really tired. 
We went to our hotel and after that, although we were tired, we went to NBA playoffs!!! We watched game Atlanta Hawks vs. Orlando Magic. 

 Anyway I fell asleep during the game because time in my hometown was 3 am. Some people from the row before us saw me and my dad asleep and they started laughing... yeah well I didn't give a F*** :D I kept sleeping until somebody shouted from the back. My first day/night in America.
