Philadelphia, New York and Atlanta- what to do!

[afromom]

We are off to the U.S. On Wednesday. Bit of an awkward trip as its me and DS going to visit ex husbands family, who DS has never met. DS is so excited, but as Philadelphia and Atlanta are not typical holiday destinations I'm struggling to find ideas of places that we can visit, (or escape to - if we need a day away!)

Any ideas much appreciated

Atlanta
World of Coke
and the Georgia aquarium
They're both in the Olympic park- I think it's called millennium park

There is a sports hall of fame and a children's museum there too and some other stuff

Philadelphia: Independence National Park, the Institute of Art (home of the steps from Rocky!) and Reading Terminal markets.

Thanks those are both great suggestions- particularly liking the idea of world of coke and olympic park in Atlanta and steps from rocky will be a big hit too. We may have to watch the film before we go

In Philadelphia:-

Independence Hall
Reading Terminal Market
Please Touch Museum
Philadelphia Zoo
Franklin Fountain Ice Cream Parlor (address is 116 Market Street).

Touch museum and ice cream parlour will go down well I'm sure! Thank you!
