Nashville - #jamieturns32 day 4

We woke up to a surprise this morning.... The sun!  So excited to not have to layer up, everyone except Lola didn't even wear a jacket, and E even wore shorts.  It was a beautiful day, with blue skies and warmer temperature.






Our morning was a little more relaxed heading out just after 10 to get to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.  It was full of lots of artifacts, interactive exhibits and music!  Some of the highlights include Elvis' car that was plated with gold and diamonds.  There was even a TV and refrigerator in the backseat.  Lola enjoyed all the outfits and musical instruments, such a variety of shapes, sizes and colours. 













We took a break for lunch, where we headed to City Tap.  We enjoyed our lunch even though we waited forever for it. 





We then headed to the Hatch Printshop Tour.  It was very interesting and such cool posters are printed there.  They showed us how the printing works, and then we got to go to a classroom and make a print of our own.  It was very neat, and so cool that they don't use computers and people still want them.  Once going through the tour, we regret not purchasing the poster they had at the grand ole opry for Opry goes pink! 










After the print shop we headed back to the hall of fame to complete it.  We had 2 exhibits left.  J and Lola became certified country.  We did all the interactive boards, answering trivia, singing songs, mixing music, and designing our album covers.  It was fun, and we sure had a lot of laughs signing!












We then went and got Starbucks, and went for a walk near the water, trying to get on the pedestrian bridge but we over shot the entrance and ended up going under it. 



Then we did some shopping and Lola bought a pair of cowboy boots.  They are not black like she was looking for, but still pretty awesome.  I guess all the advertising at the Opry paid off as I purchased them at the boot barn.



Then for supper we went to Hard Rock Cafe,  AA had the famous fajitas and we got our souvenir glass!  Back to the condo we went after supper as all our feet are tired, and we wanted to put some comfy clothes on!






We are watching tv and enjoying the snacks and drinks we got delivered.  Tomorrow we are going home, so we will see what we can squeeze in before we have to leave.
