Today started early with a stroll through Gaylord Opryland. I really think it'd be possible to spend an entire day there roaming around! There are several different wings, each with several hundred if not a thousand rooms. As part of the convention center, there were four different areas, each that was like an enclosed garden. It was so calming to be in each one of these, with the steams and waterfalls, the beautiful plants and flowers, and the enclosed yet spacious feel. We then went into downtown Nashville and wondered around looking into different bars and clubs. We went to a brewery for lunch, and then we had a beer at Tootsies, the place to be in Nashville. A complete dive bar that holds so much history. We went into Ryman auditorium, which is the former Grand Ole Opry, and I learned about all the history that has been made there.
We picked up Ruth, a friend of my dad and Chip, and went to Wildhorse saloon- there were horses scattered all over that place!
I even tried to have a beer with one of them. Then to Legends for another beer, and to another brewery for dinner. I was able to soak up (and drink up) so much of what Nashville has to offer but I know there is so so much more. In Legends we heard an unbelievably good band, and I can only begin to guess how many more great artists frequent this place. I can't wait to come back and spend more time wondering.
