23 Sept 2013:

I started my journey from Kolkata to Mumbai to Frankfurt to Atlanta. When I reached Atlanta, I passed immigration but they cleared for Sikhvinder and send me for second round check. I was affrraid that since unknowingly I marked in the form that I was not carrying any food item why bad had rice, daal and maggi. It could be a problem.

Finally my number came and they asked which bag contains rice, I told the red bag. They opened it and took the rice with them. Torn up the daal packet and check whether it contained any mixed item. Then they were satisfied they did let me go with a warning not to carry rice again.

When I came out Sukhvinder was waiting for me. We took a taxi for our Hotel. It was amazing on the roads, so clean and all cars were running in their dedicated lane. Finally we reached our Hotel. Taxi charge me $60 for this trip, which was too expensive as compared to Bharat if we convert it into rupees.


Then I reached my Hotel Residence Inn. There told us that they need one week payment in advance which we did not have. We told her that we can not make any payment now and will do it next day as we did not have any American credit card. She agreed and gave us the keys. There we found lots of indians staying. Its actually a long stay residence having kitchen in each room. Rooms are good and very clean.



There was evening complementary breakfast. We put the luggage in room, came back and had snacks. It was only ghas paat for me.

I visited the world of coke today. It coasted me $16, but not worth of visited for Indians. I think US does no have a history to show therefore they are showcasing the history of a company which has given nothing to the world but just made them sick. We visited the bottling plant there and saw how bottles are packed and filled. There was a 9 minutes 4D movies as well which was only the thing of attraction for us. Other than that all were worthless.

Some Piks:


There are three centers of attractions side by side. World of coke, CCN builiding, Georgia aquarium the larget aquarium in the world housing even the blue whales.
