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:

20 Beautiful Moats Around the World | Extensive water defences

A moat is a deep, broad ditch, typically filled with water, that surrounds a castle, building or town. Historically, it provided a preliminary line of defence. In some places moats evolved into more extensive water defences, including natural or Artificial lakes, dams and sluices. In later castles the moat or water defences may have been largely ornamental.

Regardless, moats are an impressive sight to behold, and any building that calls for such design is likely quite important and/or expensive. While many of the moats are found in Europe, we also check out Asia and even touch down in Miami for a contemporary spin on this largely medieval phenomenon. Enjoy!
