Night at Mountasia

For awhile now, Candace and I have been tossing around the idea of visiting one of Atlanta's more prominent mini-golf places (in fact, it might be the only one...?) Mountasia, but we only recently finally made it a reality. Although mini golf seems to be scarce these days, back when I was a kid, Mountasia locations were scattered all over the city (there was even one literally next door to my church, which is only five minutes from my parents' house).

Unfortunately, we decided to go on a weekend night, which meant it was pretty crowded and involved waiting for a number of backed-up groups to finish playing each hole, but it was still fun (I barely won, but Candace beat me when we played mini-golf in Gainesville, GA visiting her mom, so we're even now). Perhaps the best part of the evening though was that for only one dollar more we could get a round of golf AND 20 tokens each to spend at the arcade there! Some of the highlights include original Pac-Man (SO awesome! why don't I have Pac-Man CE on Xbox Live?), air hockey, the Jurassic Park shooter game, a version of Street Fighter I hadn't played (with this character), and even an old arcade version of Tetris!

Fun stuff!
