Mood: Surprised
Drinking: Water
Listening To: Hold My Hips
it was a long drive there, about 2 hours from Phenix City (but the wait was fricking worth it!)

I went to the Georgia Aquarium, saw a dolphin show (cheesy, but amazing), learned some interesting facts, literally saw Nemo creatures XD and other stuff....

I also went to the Coca-Cola Museum of Georgia (that place is HUGE!), saw a little show [link] (this one to be exact, brings back memories~), thinking there is a fricking secret formula to the drink (i bet the secret formula is so terrible, once people know it, they won't have a Coca-Cola anymore!), saw how the bottle design changed after about 90 years, learned other stuff (in different languages XD), and finally went to the "Taste It!" room.

That room has SO many original Coca-Cola drinks from, of course, Coke, Dasani, Minute Maid, Sprite, Fanta, High-C, and other shizz nit XD
Also got a souvenir Coke (not drinking it!)....
----------

now for the facts:

Fact #1: Did you know that Coca Cola was first invented by a pharmacist name John Pemberton as a medicine to cure headaches? But one of the ingredients he put in it was COCAINE (lol, get it now? COKE?). After that, people would literally start drinking it (not for headaches!)!!! So then afterwards, Pemberton removed the cocaine and started adding high fructose corn syrup, giving the Coca-Cola it's caramel sight!

Fact #2: The three "main" ingredients of making Coca-Cola is water, high fructose corn syrup, and carbon dioxide (CO2)!

Fact #3: Only 2 people in the world knew about the Coca-Cola recipe when it was first created!

Fact #4: I (besides my brother Joshua) am the only person in the WORLD who probably hates drinking Coca-Cola...Reason why is because my mother never gave it to us when we were little (all we ever drank was maybe Water, Milk, and Fruit Punch XD). Thank you Mom!!!
