Idea Eight

I don't know why I haven't posted about this yet!...
Idea Eight. Shopping! Athens can be pricey when it comes to shopping, which is definitely a downside, but when you have some extra money to spend it is so much fun. You can shop high end at Heery's, or reasonably at Pitaya or Encore. You can even do a little window shopping (many of us are college students and poor after all). Usually I'm not a fan of walking around and trying on things I can't afford, but walking around downtown Athens is a treat in itself. Plus even a college student can afford a coffee splurge and some people watching downtime.

Idea Six
I one of my favorite places in Athens is Five-points. There are so many places to eat, places you wouldn't even expect to serve food.
Idea Six. A walk to Five Points, and a stop at the Earth Fare Grocery store where they serve a great breakfast. There is even a place to site outside. If your up to it afterwards you can walk to the local zoo, located just down the street. (this may be more of an "i have been dating you for a long time" date idea)
(zoo Info)Off Milledge Ave. Look for the Memorial Park & Bear Hollow Wildlife Trail .sign. Turn onto Gran Ellen Dr.. It is one street north of the East Campus Drive traffic light. Memorial Park is about three blocks down Gran Ellen on the left. After entering the park, follow the signs to Bear Hallow. It is open from 9:00 am to sunset everyday. It is free!
