California August 1, 2023: Getting There

Lillian delivered us to the Avondale Marta Station. 

 

We only had to wait a couple of minutes for the train to stop right in front of us.

It was an easy ride with a few nice views of east Atlanta.



We had to switch from the East/West line to the North/South line at Five Points.

We had a nice view for the Gold Dome of our state capitol. BUT I had a hard time getting a picture of it. When I was a fourth or fifth grader we students of Fourth Ward Elementary School in Griffin Georgia helped raise money to put a layer of real Georgia gold from Dahlonega on our capitol dome.

The train put us out right in the airport and before long we were walking the moving sidewalks toward the B Terminal through some of the interesting sculptures.



As we took off we looked down on the  buildings around the airport.


We flew right over downtown Atlanta and saw the gold dome again!

It was a bumpy flight... maybe because of all the thunderstorms. See the tall "thunderhead" cloud?
