Greetings from Tennessee! (part 1)

This is my 100th post! I'm glad that for my 100th post I get to talk about being on vacation! Yay!

The road trip here to Tennessee went well! We are enjoying our stay in a beautiful cabin. A cabin that does not disappoint in any way!

Yesterday we went to see some of the sights. First up, was the very large aquarium. My favorite part was seeing the penguins. I love those little guys! Afterwards we went to eat, carefully choosing a place that Dallas doesn't have. We didn't come all this way to go to Burger King! We wound up at a shrimp place called Bubba Gump. A restaurant that has borrowed it's name and theme from the movie Forrest Gump. Obviously coming from AZ, my seafood exposure has been limited! Much to my surprise I kept sampling shrimp after shrimp. Who would've predicted this former AZ girl would like shrimp so much?

Before eating we talked of going on the sky lift that goes to the top of a mountain. After eating we revisited the sky lift option. I'm not a huge fan of heights. I wouldn't say I have an extreme fear of them but I'm not the type that would do things to go outrageously high up in the air. So most people that know me would likely be a little surprised that I would want to go on a sky lift that climbs a mountain. I'm happy to report I went on the sky lift! I had one tiny freak out moment soon after we got on but thanks to my boyfriend's calming words of encouragement I was able to refocus on the beauty that surrounded us. The sky lift was well worth it! Views from the top of the mountain were amazing!

I have taken plenty of pictures but I don't have the ability right now to post them so posts of the pics will come next week!
