R.T. '09: Grassy Cove TN to Albany GA

We made it to Albany, Georgia without incident, by way of the Donut Palace in Dayton TN, Monkey Joe's in Marietta GA, the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, and the giant peach in Byron. We left Tennessee at about 9 a.m. local time which quickly became 10 as we crossed into the next time zone right down the road. The hunt was on for the donut place that I couldn't remember the name or location of, so there was quite a celebration when we found it. We stopped at the same Monkey Joe's that we went to on our last road trip, and the kids were thoroughly worn out within an hour. They slept most of the way to Albany and so did I. We arrived at the Wyndham in Albany at 6:30, the kids jumped in the pool, and then we went to Longhorn Steakhouse for dinner. Everyone is finally asleep.

Since it was such an uneventful day, I'll take this opportunity to mention Aliya's road rash. In a freak treadmill accident she scraped both shoulders, her chin, and her temple, so all of her vacation photos from here on out will look like she got the beating I've been threatening her with. As you can see from the photo, she's not very happy about her new look.

I just added a ton of photos to yesterday's post so scroll down to check them out.
