Atlanta Civil and Human Rights Museum Media Gallery

During my stay in Atlanta, I went to the National Center for Civil and Human Rights. This attraction was one of the highlights of my trip, and further opened my eyes on the continuing struggle for basic human rights across the world.

Trying Not To Roll My Ankle At Stone Mountain Park

I spent a day at Stone Mountain Park, which is the most visited attraction in the state of Georgia. Stone Mountain is essentially a large rock where guests can either walk up the side of the rock to the top, or take a cable car. However, Stone Mountain Park is not just for the large stone, as you can go check out historic buildings, hop on the locomotive that loops around the mountain, and experience laser and fireworks shows at night. Despite the mountain's checkered history of being a Confederate memorial, the attraction brings in people of all different lifestyles and beliefs.

Georgia Aquarium Media Gallery

I went to Atlanta, Georgia for a mini-trip about a week ago, and during my stay, I experienced the mild thrill of going to the Georgia Aquarium to see various aquatic life. The admission was incredibly steep at $45 USD for an adult ticket including tax, which will definitely scare some people from going. However, if you have any sort of interest in sea life, I would pay the admission to go just once, and then you will never have to go again. I compared this visit to my visit to the Ripley's Aquarium in Toronto, and it was essentially the same experience, with the Ripley's Aquarium being a bit cheaper, but also a bit smaller.

Party Boat Fun Along The North Coast Of Jamaica

On our last day in Jamaica before we flew back to Canada, we spent the day on a large catamaran sailing along the north coast of Jamaica while knocking back large gulps of rum. This experience was the highlight of my Jamaica trip, and I would encourage everyone who is able to drink copious amounts of alcohol on a small boat.

How I Drove Without Car Insurance For Almost A Year

I am usually meticulous when it comes to my car insurance policy. Every year, I look through my policy and discuss with my insurance agent what I deem is necessary to include in my coverage, and what is not necessary. My goal in going through my policy is to try to reduce my already exorbitant monthly payment slightly, which is without success.

Recently, I received my renewed car insurance policy for 2019-2020, after lamenting the monthly increase in my payment (yet again) and reviewing the policy, I went to put the new insurance slip in my car. When I went into my glove box to put the insurance slip in my folder, I noticed that the insurance slip that was showing in my folder was from 2017-2018. I also had previous insurance slips from 2016 (when I bought my car), and from 2016-2017. I was missing my insurance slip from my current insurance period.

It instantly dawned on me that I was driving without proof of insurance for almost an entire year.

I ran out of my car and back into my house to look for my insurance slip for my current insurance period. I found the slip without too much trouble, and not torn out from my policy documents. I had no idea how I forgot to put this insurance slip in my car last year. Regardless, I took my current insurance slip and my newly acquired insurance slip for 2019-2020 and put them in my car, so I would not have to forget for the next year.

Imagine if the police pulled me over in the last year and did not have my proof of insurance. That would have been a bad situation for me, which also would have been completely avoidable.
