This past weekend, we went to Atlanta with my sister and her husband. There were two things to accomplish while in Hot-lanta:
1. See the Detroit Pistons play some b-ball.
2. Experience the beast that is called IKEA.
This is the craziest shopping experience I've ever had. Thank goodness Amber and Kevin were there to help guide us through it (they had been to the one in Detroit). It's this huge showroom of furniture and home accessories on one level, then you go downstairs to the "warehouse" and pick out your stuff. It was founded in Sweden, and from the moment you step in, you feel like you're in a different country. There was an assorment of swedish food upstairs in the cafe. One of my favorite (and only) purchases of the day was a box of Cappuccino flavored cookies!
This is Erik and Kevin enjoying the $0.99 breakfast that they had at the IKEA cafe. Oh yes, you read that correctly...$0.99! For a huge plate of Eggs, sausage, and hashbrowns. I played it safe and stuck to my cup of coffee. We spent 3 hours in this crazy place, needless to say it was a bit overwhelming. Good prices. Interesting stuff. Will we ever go back? Maybe...
On Friday night, Erik and Kevin took the Marta downtown to see the Pistons play the Hawks. They snuck down to some wicked awesome seats, just 8 rows behind the bench!

This is Erik's angry fit after the Pistons LOST! Can you believe it? Lost to the Hawks?! Whoever heard of such nonsense?
