Today we headed into downtown Nashville for some on foot exploring of the city. We returned to the Country Music Hall of Fame to visit the Gift Shop and pick up some souvenirs. Then we walked over to Broadway to get some lunch and check out the shops and entertainment. We ate at Jack's Bar-B-Que; some good pulled pork, and beef brisket with an array of bbq sauce choices and some southern comfort sides. After the hearty lunch we wandered over to Ernest Tubb Record Store for some country music. Then we perused the shops lining Broadway and looked into the numerous bars. Emily found a new pair of cowboy boots and Marilyn got a new cowboy hat; officially outfitting them in true country style. :) After some shopping we headed back towards the campground and stopped at Opry Mills, the large shopping mall right near the Grand Ole Opry. We checked out the inside of the Gaylord Opryland Hotel, a massive complex with spectacular indoor gardens. They even have a boat that you can ride through the hotel.
