Another Day in Tennessee



Didn't get to sleep in this morning, things to do being the last day here. We were in Gatlinburg at the Aquarium when it opened at 9am. It was beautiful and again was reminded at how much thought was put into each creature of the sea. Did you know there is a sea dragon? I didn't. It is similar to sea horse but it does look like a dragon. I had a hard time figuring out how to set the camera to take good pics through the glass in the dark but I ended up with some good ones but had to delete some too. I will post some pics of the aquarium. After the aquarium, we walked around Gatlinburg and I stopped at Ben & Jerry's and had a mid morning Ben & Jerry's banana split. Did a little more shopping and found some more special Christmas gifts. It was a day of pleasures, stopped by the creek and read USA Today completely while listening the water rushing over the rocks. Then we went to a new show called Miracle. It was simply the most awesome production that I have ever done. Besides the subject matter, which ran from the creation of the world to Jesus resurrection; the music, acting and special effects were outstanding! Then we went next door to Tony Romas for something to eat and all I could think of was the only other time I have eaten at Tony Romas's was in Honduras. Found myself missing Karen & Dorian big time.
After being totally full we returned to motel for some rest and relaxation. Having a quiet evening reading, snacking and relaxing. Tomorrow morning, will probably head to Cherokee, NC and then decide where to go after that.
