Stone Mountain Park - Georgia

While in Atlanta, Georgia on our family vacation we went out to Stone Mountain. It was twenty minutes outside of Atlanta.  Our family had a wonderful experience at Stone Mountain and all of us highly recommend it.

We went during a great time, because they had already started having Stone Mountain Christmas. We knew we would be there late in order to meet Santa, so we went out there in the afternoon around 2 pm.
The first thing we did was ride a cable car up to the top of Stone mountain. This didn't take very long at all, but they sure cram people into the car. Once up there you can enjoy a great view. We could see all of Atlanta.

Next we went to the Barn. Our kids loved it. It is a four story barn with a challenge game in it. The kids collect 'fruit' different colored balls. Then they had to carry the fruits through the different levels and complete various challenges for points.




In the barn were tube slides that went from the fourth floor to the bottom floor and trampoline like floors!

Other activities included: miniature golf, a welcome parade when Santa arrived, 4d Polar Express movie, meeting Santa and Mrs. Claus, fireworks, light show, train ride that stops and has a show in the middle, eateries and shopping.
