Default Things to do in Atlanta

We will be spending most of the week in Atlanta watching the Cubs sweep the Braves (to make up for a couple of years ago when we watched them get swept in the rain). We have been down before, and have done many of the touristy things, World of Coke, Stone Mountain.

Anyone have any suggestions for places to see or eat in Atlanta? Has to be family friendly.

I believe it is called the Emporer's Club that is a favorite of NBA players when they visit Atlanta. There are places all over I've heard.

Take the "Michael Vick would have" tour:

This is the stadium where Michael Vick would have played football.
This is the restaurant where Michael Vick would have eaten dinner.
This is the club where Michael Vick would have sexually assaulted a stripper.
This is the kennel where Michael Vick would have bought his dogs.
etc.

It could be a fun family game.

The aquarium is fun.

Go to the MLK birth home. It's free and interesting.
