We got off to a late start but that didn't stop us from getting to our destination we planned.
They were ready for a break when we crossed the first state line.
Once we were settled in our room, Carson went looking for the bible.
He found it with an unfamiliar book.. AKA.. phone book.
He also investigated an empty refrigerator, only to find another thing that he had no clue what it was..
He filled them with water, so he would have ice in the morning. We tried to make our trips both fun, and a learning experience. He did some learning before bed time.
We were up and going early the next morning. Carson was excited to use his ice.
Our first stop was the capital in Little Rock.
Before heading out we took a detour and added a stop to our trip.
We gave the kids a history lesson, and they completed some activities to earn their junior ranger badge. We arrived too late to go on a tour of the school, so if we pass through Little Rock again, we would like to do that.
Central High School
Taking the Junior Ranger pledge
Next stop TENNESSEE...
Memphis has a neat visitors center as soon as you enter the city.
Next stop.. Memphis Zoo
Some of your favorite animals...
We left the zoo and headed to the Peabody Hotel to see the ducks. Well.. our GPS took us to the wrong place, so we barely made it before show time. Luckily the kids were able to get closer to see and were responsible for taking pictures....
Not the best picture but at least they were able to see the duck parade.
We try to find local places to eat at when we travel.
If you like spicy chicken, then this is a place for you.
This chicken was so yummy!!
After dinner, we were on the road again... up next Nashville..
