First on our trip down there we stopped in Corbin, KY. We ate at Sander's Cafe. For those of you not in the know, this is the very first KFC. It was super cheesy but the food was delicious. I thought of Odile and Claude while there...since they were my KFC buddies in NY.
Then we finished the drive to Pigeon Forge. Traffic was crazy, so it took a bit longer than expected. Once there, we checked into our hotel. Then we went for a walk, ate mushroom pizza, played Firehouse golf (putt-putt), and played in the pool before calling it a night.
The next day we went to church. Then we headed into Cades Cove to give Owen a taste of the Smokies. We saw bears, deer, birds, fish, etc. along the way too, which was cool. After that we went to Dollywood. It was a bit crazy at first because a rainstorm came in and all of the rides and outside shows were shut down. Eventually the sun came back out and we got to see some shows and ride a few rides. Warning: the train will throw soot at you and get in your eyes :( OUCH!
Overall the trip was a blast!!!
Here are some highlights...
