We took a quick weekend trip down to Augusta, GA to attend a family member's wedding. Having spent very little time in the south, we were looking forward to seeing another part of the country, and also seeing the town that hosts the annual Masters golf tournament.
We arrived late on Friday afternoon and checked into our hotel, which was also the venue for the wedding reception to be held the next day. The hotel was centrally located within Augusta and within walking distance to the downtown area.
Following the rehearsal dinner, we headed over to the Still Water Tap room for a few drinks and enjoyed the causual atmosphere of the bar, including the pressed tin ceiling.
On Saturday, since the wedding was not scheduled until later in the evening, we had a late lunch at the Bee's Knees, a tapas restaurant located a few blocks away from the hotel. We had some drinks, and a number of small plates to tie us over until the wedding reception, which was scheduled for later that night.
Overall, it was a short trip, but we enjoyed the quick taste of the south, and hope to go back at some point to spend more time in the area.
