Learn everything you ever wanted to know about your favorite soda at World of Coca-Cola. The kids can get their hands on interactive exhibits and attractions throughout the museum, and the whole family can explore the history of one of the world's biggest corporations. While you're there, you'll see a chronicled exhibition of the company's impact on pop-culture, and a live demonstration of how the drink is bottled.

Check out one of nature's odd attractions at Panola Mountain State Park. The park was created in an effort to preserve a 100-acre granite monadnock, or mountain. In all, this state park occupies 1,635 acres and is home to a visitor center, a playground, two fishing lakes, an archery range, and plenty of opportunities for hiking and biking in the great outdoors.

Satisfy your need for speed with a visit to the Atlanta Motor Speedway. This southern speedway is host to NASCAR's famous Sprint Cup race, held every year on Labor Day weekend. If you're not one to watch laps and laps of a NASCAR race, the track hosts "Friday Night Drags" from spring until fall. The cars competing in the drag races hit top speeds, flying down a 1/8 mile stretch.
