Woke up in Greenville, SC and droveP1020917to Atlanta, GA .  Excited to see the Atlanta temple . . . That’s right, it was closed for the 2 week cleaning.   We took a beautiful walk around the grounds and headed into town to see “The World of Coka Cola. Fun tour and lots of memorabilia from around the world.P1020924Verne really wanted to take a picture with the Coka Cola  polar bear.  He was the marketing face for COKE starting in 1993.  We went into the vault where the secret recipe is kept and read about the history of the drink, that started in 1888 by a pharmacist named Pemberton.P1020930P1020932P1020934P1020936IMG_20180925_140945422_BURST000_COVER_TOPCoke machines through time.P1020937A whole room filled with sodas from around the world.  All made by the COKE Co.
