“Living near the world’s busiest airport means having the option of catching direct flights to some of the world’s coolest places. But sometimes we Atlantans forget just how fun it can be to hop in a car and ride out of town on a summer Friday. Then again, some of us work in Atlanta but actually live in Suwanee, which is kind of similar, except that it absolutely sucks. For an enjoyable place that probably takes just as long — but not because of suicide-inducing traffic — try one of these under-five-hour road trips from Atlanta. They’re guaranteed to make you cool… in various ways.”
