If the weather is just a drizzle (as it was for our tour), it is really not a problem. I would highly recommend this tour leader.. </p> <p><a href="http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g60898-d8330667-Reviews-Food_Tours_Atlanta-Atlanta_Georgia.html" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g60898-d8330667-Reviews-Food_Tours_Atlanta-Atlanta_Geor" rel="nofollow">http://www.tripadvisor.com/Att.....lanta_Geor</a>...</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/atlanta-for-singles#post-1582127 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 13:57:24 +0000 Beth Ann 1582127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LaBelle: Didn't realize that you are in Atlanta, too!&nbsp; The open mic sounds like a lot of fun, and I'm an American Songbook lover.&nbsp; "My Heart is so Full of You," Kern's "Remind Me," and my current theme song, "Why Try to Change Me Now," are all favorites.......... and I've been wanting to try Ethiopian food for ages......</p> <p>&nbsp;I'll PM later today -- both kids are home sick.&nbsp; Aargh! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/atlanta-for-singles#post-1582019 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 04:04:19 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1582019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Count me in for an Atlanta meetup! &nbsp;but with limitations: &nbsp; Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings I have flamenco class + a workshop. &nbsp;I can meet during the day on Wednesday &amp; Thursday. &nbsp;</p> <p>I'm also free on Thursday night. &nbsp; If you're looking for something fun to do, on Thursday nights there is an open mic jazz session at the Queen of Sheba Ethiopian restaurant, that a musician friend regularly performs at. &nbsp; Singers and musicians from around Atlanta turn up and perform. &nbsp;If any of you sing, or play an instrument, and have a jazz standard you like... come sit in! &nbsp;Or show up and enjoy. &nbsp;&nbsp;There is no cover charge. &nbsp; The food is pretty tasty, they mix some good drinks, but I usually have the coffee, which is <u>fantastic</u> for restaurant coffee. &nbsp; Just an idea. &nbsp; If that interests any of you ladies, or there is something else you would all like to do, PM me &nbsp; QoS is at Briarcliff/Druid Hills, near Target. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/atlanta-for-singles#post-1582008 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 03:37:29 +0000 Beth Ann 1582008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>UF:&nbsp; Tea is one of my favorite rainy day activities.&nbsp; And there's a chance for rain, so I will definitely make sure I allow for weather!</p> <p>Anne:&nbsp; I'm trying to make the most of the fact that my kids are now 13 and 14, and in school during the day.&nbsp; And Tim and I will have the drive time together, which wil be nice, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/atlanta-for-singles#post-1581963 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 02:01:18 +0000 anne 1581963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beth Ann, this sounds so exciting!&nbsp; All the best!&nbsp; (My husband wants me to go to conferences too - but with him and they are actually ones I'd want to attend) but&nbsp; I still would love a little single holiday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/atlanta-for-singles#post-1581936 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 00:52:07 +0000 unfrumped 1581936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I lived there decades ago but am drawing a blank on what specifically to do to maximize your visit, but I just want to cheer you on for your individual "mini-vacation". Those can be a lot of fun.&nbsp; Maybe target a few indoor and outdoor options so can flex with the weather.
