Vacation Week! Tuesday. World of Coke

On Tuesday we went to eat lunch at Food Truck Park and went to the World of Coke. 

We've never eaten off a food truck and have wanted to try it.  So we checked out a park that had several options:

We tried barbecue chicken from one truck and a Grouper and Hamburger sliders from another.  It was a fun experience!

Then we headed to the Coke museum.  The last time we went was for our 12th anniversary when Emily was 5 months old:

Dr. Pemberton who invented Coke in May 1886:
We enjoyed reading about the history of the invention of Coke and how the secret formula is so closely guarded.  I did not realize this until Monday, but the formula was moved to the World of Coke in May 2011 to celebrate its 125 anniversary.  Before that it was housed in a bank vault in Atlanta.  
 

 

 
These are the vending machines I remember as a child:
 
Watching old Coke commercials:
Of course the girls favorite thing to do was taste all the flavors of Coke from around the world.  

Abigail decided she REALLY liked all the flavors and kept her cup close to her at all times:
We had Emily try the Beverly without telling her before hand. This is the worst tasting drink there is:
In the words of Emily "How does anyone like this drink!"
