How to Visit Hotlanta

1. Have no idea why people refer to it as "Hotlanta." But it sounds cool, doesn't it?

2. Where are all the PEOPLE? This place is supposed to be a city, right? Is it a city of cars like in the Disney movie?

3. Understand why people say Virginia-Highland is like Soho. Because it's filled with cute boutiques full of clothes that don't fit you.

4. Enjoy your mall connected hotel. You don't even have to leave the hotel to get to the mall, people! This must be why they call it "Hotlanta." That's hot!

5. Dig on some traffic. Learn to love the radio.

6. Eat at some super yummy restaurants. Diet? What diet?

7. Try to figure out why half the Jews you grew up with in Richmond have moved to this place that seems like a bigger, more traffic congested version of....Richmond! (Must be all the yummy restaurants. Seriously. Yummy.)

8. Marriott beds rock. But still get up at 7AM as though the child was yelling "Mooommmy!" from the next room.

9. Squeeze your husband's hand on the plane. Always hate flying since 9/11.

10. Enjoy your getaway, but be happy to get home.
