Anyone been to Atlantis
 
What language do they speak? What kind of food did you find there? Are the people friendly? How do you get there? <BR>

Yes, the people are very friendly. They speak English, with a bit of a southern drawl. I found some interesting food there with names like "grits" and "hush puppies." Delta Airlines has lots of flights to Atlantis, so it's very easy to get there. :~)

VERY EXPENSIVE

In a word 'EXPENSIVE'

I've been to Akrotiri in Santorini which may have been "Atlantis" in another life.

Atlantis is booked for the season!

I'd suggest skipping Atlantis. In the summer, there are too many American tourists, and in the winter, the place floods big-time.

Icelandair a great 2 for 1 fare in February so we decided to go. Wow, what a great place! The monorail is free and not only links Poseidon International Airport with the old section of Zeusville but has a line that goes to all of the major sites. The Atlasmuseum is a must. Seafood is the specialty of the nation - we found Gibraltar's Cellar on Plaza Of The Ancients wonderful. A few helpful things for first time visitors: Tipping is %25, everyone wears white (including shoes), most people can speak flawless english but learn a few of their words, nobody at all smokes, the daily temblors are scary at first but you get used to them. <BR>Go! Have a great time and post a trip report upon your return.
