Nashville Vol. 2/ Bowling Green, KY

Well we are finishing our week here in Nashville,we went to the Jack Daniels Distillery for a tour and tasting, I learned lots of things I never knew about the process of making Whiskey as well as the valuable lesson to never kick a safe, considering thats what killed old Jack

, we also attended a show at the Grand Ole Opry the next evening in which there was a little boy of only 11 years old that not only composed his own music but played the fiddle like a pro and sang like an angel, his name was Carson Peters, we also got to see Little Big Town, Pam Tillis and a comedian named Henry Cho who was very funny.

Today we went to the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green,KY and saw not only their collection but also some of the cars that were lost in the sinkhole in 2010, they not only still had the dirt from the hole but you could actually buy a bottle of the sinkhole dirt in the gift shop, I passed on that.

That afternoon we went to lunch at place called the Tea Bayou, before going in I watched an entire line of old women crossing the street on their Jazzy scooters, just wheeling around town, I never laughed so hard, once inside we were greeted with the atmosphere of local art on all the walls and a selection of creole/cajon food and different types of teas and coffees to drink, which were all delicious.

After lunch we went to the Lost River Caves where we went on an underground boat ride, they had beautiful trails and what they called Blue Holes, the river is over 17 miles and goes through the caves underground, the saying low ceiling doesn't do parts of the boat ride justice.




All in all this trip has been really wonderful, from great food, great music to the great outdoors, we have really enjoyed it here and look forward to what else our Travels has in store for us. Until then be kind to one another.
