Weekend in ATL

This past weekend I went to Atlanta, Ga for an Anusara Yoga workshop lead by Anusara founder, John Friend. It was a 2-day workshop that included two 2-hour sessions each day. Not having practiced yoga much since moving, I was a little apprehensive as to how well I would be able to keep up. However, I felt comfortable with most of the asanas.

Using Airbnb, I found a place for K and me to stay. It was the woman's first time hosting and my first time staying with someone using Airbnb. She was very welcoming and had a cute small cottage that was perfect for our weekend stay. Overall, it was a positive experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed a few of the beautiful parks ATL has to offer, including Oakland Cemetery Park, Piedmont Park and Grant Park. Additionally, I enjoyed some of the local restaurants, including Holy Taco and Rita's Bluebird. Rita's Bluebird was so packed both times I stopped by that the first time I just got a latte and the second time I got my lunch to go.

There were many more restaurants and places I'd like to experience. The ATL Botanical Garden is having an Orchid Daze event that I would love to visit. Visiting Little 5 Points was on my list, but I didn't make over there. Much more to see and experience... I hope to make it back to ATL sometime soon!
