Touring The Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum

After flying back into Atlanta from Italy, we decided to stop by The Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum.  We have wanted to visit for several years but, unfortunately, it just never worked out that we were in Atlanta while they were open.

I greatly enjoyed visiting The Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum!  It is very well-done and includes many interesting exhibits.  It is much better than The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum, and I would recommend visiting if in the area.
