Recently, my 'Dad' had to take a trip to Tennessee for a few days one week. So, we all went along. It was new for me, and I had a LOT of fun!
This was our ride. Not ME ... the CAR! I got to sit in the back. They set me on a pillow so I could see out the window. There was a lot to see.
|
I've never been to a hotel before! I was trying to find something to watch on TV. There wasn't much on.
|
Everyone was working, so I amused myself by looking out of the window. People-watching can be a fascinating hobby. You'd be surprised the things that go on in a parking lot. |
'Mom' was getting tired so I thought I'd make her some coffee. It looked easier than it was. Apparently, you are supposed to take the coffee out of the packet. 'Mom' didn't like the cofee. |
I tried to help 'Mom' set up her computer in the hotel room, but wound up getting all tangled in the cable. Oh well. |
On our way back home, we went to Ruby Falls. I've never been in a cave before. I was very excited about this new experience. |
Me waiting for my ticket to get in. This was a BIG chair! |
I found this hat in the gift shop! It was so cute, I couldn't resist trying it on. They said I wouldn't need a hat in the cave, though, so I didn't get it. |
Me and my souvenir ticket, waiting to board the elevator. I've never been in an elevator before. |
Walking into the cave. 'Mom' lifted me up so I could touch the ceiling. It was dark and cold in the cave. But, I wasn't scared. |
Me and one of the neat formations in the cave. This one was called the "Onyx Column". |
There is a lot of water in the cave. People have to be very careful. |
This is what we walked through the cave to see ... Ruby Falls. It was spectacular. Who knew such a beautiful waterfall could be found hundreds of feet below ground! I was happy to see it. I didn't like it when they turned the lights out, though. |
I liked the colors in the cave ... they matched me! |
Me and another one of the formations, this one was called "The Candle and the Cactus". The rocks were sooooo smooth. |
It was good to sit down. |
Waiting for the elevator. I was soooo tired. All that walking wears you out. |
On the observation deck at Ruby Falls. You could see for a long, long way. It's located on top of Lookout Mountain. |
I was in Nashville! What a nice city. |
This was really neat - we stopped at the Parthenon! I never thought I would get to see something like that. It was really beautiful. |
There's me on the steps of the Parthenon! What a beautiful building - and sooo big, too! I really liked the horse sculptures across the top. This was a great trip! |
