Coca-Cola Museum 125th anniversary celebration pics

The taste of Coca-Cola was born in Atlanta in 1886, and this month begins their 125th anniversary celebration. You can partake in many activities during the celebration including mini-golf as well as get a 125th anniversary commemorative bottle and purchase an anniversary book while supplies last.

As far as the visit for me, I enjoyed the experience of being able to see the museum as well as try out the many flavors of Coca-Cola from countries around the world. For many of my friends that live in Asia, I tried out most of them. It sure can hype you up after trying them. LOL!

Anyway, here are some pics I took on my trip to the museum that day:
