Things To Do in Atlanta, GA
Cabbage Patch Kids at Babyland General Hospital
If you were ever a Cabbage Patch Kids fanatic, revisit your childhood at the Babyland General Hospital - the birthplace of the Cabbage Patch Kid dolls. This toyland sits on 650 beautifully landscaped acres, and you'll find that the hospital is housed in a gorgeous Southern-style home. When you visit here, you'll get to see a Cabbage Patch doll being made and then have the opportunity to take it home to add to your collection. It's a heart warming attraction for young and old.
Stonehurst Place
Plan a romantic stay at Stonehurst Place, a bed and breakfast with plenty of history behind it. Stonehurst was built in 1896, therefore securing its place on the National Register of Historic Places. Though the bed and breakfast still echoes the time period from which it hails, it offers plenty of modern amenities and chic décor.
Atlanta Caribbean Carnival
Join in the celebration of Caribbean culture at the Atlanta Caribbean Carnival. Bright costumes, music and parades are a large part of this festival, along with Caribbean food, arts and crafts, and other live entertainment. The festival is celebrated right before Lent, and is somewhat of a "last hurrah" before the observation of the Catholic tradition.
