Day 7 – Charlotte, NC & Charleston, SC
Another day and headed to another city, but first breakfast. I LOVED the citrus french toast. The baked egg also was cooked perfectly. The game plan was to make it to Charlotte, NC (2 hour drive) around lunch time and stop by the Ostrich Ranch. Well, the website...
Day 6 – Asheville, NC
We started our day with breakfast at the B&B. As I said yesterday you can sit and eat when you want and since we had an early tour at the Biltmore, they where kind enough to make us breakfast 30 minutes earlier then the usually start time. Our tour time was set up...
Day 5 – Smoky Mountains & Asheville, NC
Today we where up early to spend the day in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Top on my list was to see a bear. Well, I did get to see a momma and 3 cubs, but they where in the thick forest so I couldn’t get a good picture of them. Oh well, I did have plenty of...
Day 4–Knoxville, TN & Gatlinburg, TN
It’s Easter Sunday, but we’re spending the day in the car. The drive from Memphis to Knoxville, TN is about 5 1/2 hours then another hour to Gatlinburg, TN where we would be staying the night. We stopped for lunch at White Castle. We don’t have these down in Texas so...
Day 3 – Memphis, TN
In the car bright and early today headed for Memphis, TN, which is about a 3 hour drive from Nashville, TN. We stayed at The Peabody Hotel $18 for parking $209 room plus taxes. They have a daily duck march at 11am and 5pm, totally worth seeing if you stay there or...
Day 2 – Nashville, TN
Today we had tickets to visit the Grand Ole Opry House for their first tour at 10am. Once we went into the building we got to go by some of the dressing rooms. Each of them have a different theme and she talked about the different starts who had used the rooms we saw...
Day 1 – Lynchburg, TN & Nashville, TN
Our flight landed an hour late due to weather so we have to get in our rental car and book it from Nashville to Lynchburg. We had 1:00pm reservations at Miss Bobo’s Boarding House. There’s only 2 available times (11am and 1pm, there’s also a 3pm on the weekends) and...
Cinco Ranchos Mexican Grill – CLOSED
There’s a space in the strip center that seems to have a destination fail to it. Nothing last long in this spot so I was a little hesitant to try Cinco Ranchos Mexican Grill. We went on a Saturday late afternoon. Always note that if there’s no hostess and you have to...
McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood Restaurant (Town and Country Location)
We always love going to McCormick & Schmick’s they never a let down when we go. While we looked over the menu we snacked on the bread and butter and ordered a bottle of 2010 Nautilus Sauvignon Blanc $39. Not usually the wine I would pick it’s a little more sweeter...
Tree House – CLOSED
Hubby and I decided to try a new place that opened up in our area called Tree House Mexican Baja Grill. We mainly went because we had a coupon, I hate paying full price on a place I’m not sure if it’ll be any good. We went a Monday night after getting back in town so...
T.G.I. Friday’s
I honestly can’t remember the last time I had been to a T.G.I. Friday’s. I know it’s been at least 8 years, but could be longer. They’ve really tried to make a comeback in the last few years, updating their menu, look and specials. If you have been to Chili’s they are...
Oceanaire
We usually don’t like going in town to the Galleria area because there’s so many people and the traffic is a nightmare, but since it was a Thursday and we where going for lunch we took a chance. We also figured the prices for lunch would be a little better than the...
