Little swim, big breakfast and ready to start the road at 9am.

Only a 4 1/2 hours drive today – first part through Smoky Mountain

Going into Tennessee and gaining an hour!


First impression of Nashville: growing city with lots of construction and high cranes
Second impression of Nashville: whoa such a chaotic music (and noise) when walking Broadway!! Every bar has their own live country music and needs to set it loud so they are louder than the neighbor bars ….

Happy hour at the Wildhorse Saloon, which I visited too in 1998 with Veerle, summer kid # 15

Of course we did a live country music show: at The Nashville Palace (where Randy Travis has even been a cook and dish washer …). We saw him in the bar in a wheel chair (couple years ago he got a stroke) . The performers gave us a Journey if 60 years country music born
