What a fun day!

This weekend has been pretty active, I decided to challenge my comfort zone and adventure into the undiscovered places that surround my area. I've been promising Sophia that I would take her to the Disney Store so she could use her 2 gift cards. She have had those, one since her b-day, and the other since we left Chicago.

Thank you Sarah, she loved the shopping adventure and this is what she got!


Now, the closest Disney Store is about an hour away in a suburb north of Atlanta. For some reason there are no malls in my area, which is actually good because that would be torture. Unfortunately the same applies to Chipotle, my favorite fast food restaurant in the whole wide world, which is why any time we adventure into Atlanta or the northern burbs it is a MUST to eat there.

On the way back from the mall and while hunting for a Chipotle I ran into one of my favorite Chicago burger places, I had no idea there was more than one of these, but it absolutely made my day! I cannot believe food makes me this happy, lol!


No, I did not eat there because I had to satisfy my Chipotle craving, but I am soon to return to make myself one of those very deserved custom burgers that I adore. I guess that this teaches me that I might want to start researching some of my favorite Chicago places, I might be pleasantly surprised.

Since we were already near Atlanta I decided to check out Piedmont Park which I've been told it's Atlanta's smaller version of "Central Park". The weather was a little chilly and foggy which made the park even more beautiful! One of the beautiful things about Atlanta is it's vegetation, even in the city you can find tons of trees and foresty areas. Here are some random shots!








The day followed with an interesting twist, an MMA fight in my town where I ended up seeing Shia LaBeouf, unfortunately no pics of Shia, but he's been hanging out at the Waffle House down the street and at the Starbucks that I go after my runs. If I see him again I am definitely getting a pic of him! Here are a few pics of the fight! 





Drinks followed with new friends, it was a fun fun day, it feels nice to get a break  =)

XOXO
