A Little Bit of Dubai in Atlanta

I received a press release yesterday regarding winter activities in Atlanta. This little nugget caught my eye:

"Hotlanta will officially cool off on Nov. 10 with the grand opening of Snow Mountain, featuring 10 tubing runs and spots to create snowmen, snow angels and snowballs. Open every weekend through Jan. 27, the attraction’s state-of-the-art snow-making magic guarantees you more than 200 tons of fresh snow daily. And, with a moving sidewalk to lead you up the 400-foot tubing hill, you’ll want to go again and again." (my emphasis)

Hee hee. This reminds me of the indoor skiing they have in Dubai. I'm sure the only real difference here will be that people will have rat tails, peach tattoos, and Jesus t-shirts instead of Prada shoes, huge diamonds, and hijabs. The moving sidewalk is a hilarious testament to the laziness of the average Georgian. Yeah, when I picture that moving sidewalk loaded up with fat snowy hicks, I do want to go again and again - go pee in my pants laughing!

Obviously, I will be there with bells on. Stay tuned for photos of said snowy hicks.
