    I remember someone mentioning This. Nuttin fancy but they do have antique displays.
    An Art of Shaving on Peachtree Road. I think Ralph Lauren Health and beauty is near there but don't know what they have.
    All I can offer!

    Best!

    Nope, but there are many streets with the word Peach in their names.

    Are straight razors allowed on flights?

    As I understand as long as they are in your luggage it is ok. In carry-on luggage with you in the cabin nope. I'm flying non-stop so I think they will be ok.

    Cool. Other than the razors being an issue - I guess the only other rule is the 3 oz size limitation on toiletries? (and in a plastic bag) Seems ridiculous if you ask me :rolleyes:

    Yeah, safety razors are okay in carry on, but not straights. Liquids and gels in 3 oz. or less containers, and all in one zip lock plastic bag.

    And the AOS store near Lenox Square is all I know of. C&E and L'Occitane in the malls.

    Well today I realized a childhood dream of watching a real car race. What a spectacle it is, all of it. It is an experience that touches many of our senses Sight, Hearing, Smell, Touch I am at a loss for words. The smell of the race track and the cars, the speed, did I mentioned the cars, the noise. Everything you can feel it all the way down to your bones. Le Mans series is my favorite racing style and today a dream came true for me. I was so close to the track I could feel the wind wash from the cars as they passed my area. Road Atlanta is a famous track. I have driven this track many times in my XBox but seeing it in person was just awesome. Oh yes promotional car girls everywhere and I have a pic to prove it:D

    Today is a day I will never forget. After coming back to my brother's home I hugged him and thank him for making a childhood dream come true. Oh yeah I'm coming back next year.

    We are going to transfer the pics to a disc and then post them. It was just freaking awesome!!!!!!!!!!

    Actually, there really are quite a few roads with "peachtree" in their names, here. Peachtree St, Peachtree Rd, Peachtree Battle, Peachtree Corners Circle, and Peachtree Industrial Blvd all come to mind. There are more on top of this, but that is a good start. There is also the fact that the same road changes names many times in some cases and also the opposite where you must turn many times to stay on the same named road. I love this city, but it is anything but a simple grid pattern with logical road names. We also have the nasty habit of abbreviating road signs such as P'Tree Crns Cir for Peachtree Corners Circle or John Fry Rd for Johnson Ferry Rd. It must be truly maddening to a visitor.

    I spent my last day at the mall with my brother. We went to Nordstrom to find T&H creams only to find out that all the T&H creams had been pulled out of every Nordstrom in the Atlanta Metro area. In their place...Jack Black
    They still carry AOS.
