Suggestions to kill 2 hours near Atlanta airport
 
The way my latest business trip is shaping up, I have about 2 hours to kill before having to return my car to the airport (that includes time built in to return my rental car and be at the gate 1 1/2 hrs before my flight). I will be coming from either Lawrenceville (which means I will probably have even more time to kill) or Roswell. Any thing of interest on the way to the airport that can only be done in Atlanta? Shopping, museums, sights to see, I'm pretty open...as always, thanks for everyone's input!

In Roswell, the Chattahoochee Nature Center is a wonderful place to spend some time. http://www.chattnaturecenter.com

Been to the largest Aquarium? Or what's often called N America's best botanical garden? Jimmy Carter Library? MLK Center? The High?

Usually I spend that time in the airport trying to get to my gate.

ATL is a beast of an airport. Whatever time you think you need to be there, add at least 45 minutes to that time.

What time is your flight? Don't forget how bad the traffic can be in Atl.especiaaly at rush hour
