Buford dam park near Lake Lanier - Address and hours

This is a really good park. Most of the information about this park can be found online. However, two pieces of information are missing -

1. There is not precise address for the park. If you are driving on buford dam park rd from north, keep an eye on the left side. The board for buford dam park is pretty small and could be missed. The board also reads Lanier Park management in bigger font.

2. When we enter the park a wall on the right hand side reads that the park closes at 4:30pm. However, this is not correct. If you go inside to buy the parking permit you will know that the park closes at 10pm. The good thing is that the beach is pretty much empty after 4:30pm. (based on one visit to the park in August.)

First time experience with Greyhound

Last week we traveled from Atlanta to Greenville and back by Greyhound bus. We had heard many different things about greyhound and were a bit worried but the experience was quite pleasant.

The bus from ATL arrived 70 minutes late for no good reasons, though ATL was the first stop. We were standing in the queue for a long time with no information about the status of the bus. The station was very crowded with people from all around the world. The customer service was working at its slowest, boosting frustration.

However, after we got into the bus everything went smooth. The crowd was good and quiet. Bus was clean, even the bathroom was clean. The driver was friendly. And we arrived at Greenville sharp 70 minutes late.

While coming back, the bus was on time and the journey was even better. It was raining hard and we felt good that we did not have to drive.
