Memphis

Well we made it back! The game didn't go quite as planned, but it was still fun to watch. Craig and I left the kids at Grandma's and grandpa's house Tuesday night. Our flight left Wednesday the 31st at 6am. We arrived in Memphis around 9:30 (memphis time). We got our rental car and swung by Graceland to pick up our Sun studio tickets. We took the first tour of the day at Sun and really enjoyed the museum. Where we are standing with the Mic, is where Elvis stood!
We spent the rest of the 31st walking around downtown Memphis. We went back to the hotel for a nap, and then went to supper at O'Charley's. That evening we went and looked at the Graceland lights (walked there from the hotel). We lasted long enough to watch Dick Clark, and then passed out.
On the 1st we woke up around 8, and spent 7 hours at Graceland. We really enjoyed the VIP tour. We went through the house twice, and the 'bonus' room twice. We did every museum on the other side of the road; my favorite was the jumpsuit museum. That evening we had tickets to a "pirate" pep rally, on Beale street. We enjoyed all the live music.
On the 2nd we got up to go to the "pirate" tail gate. Both Kentucky and ECU were in the same building and there was a very fun battle of the bands. Great food, good fun! At the game we had a great time, but the end result was not what we wanted. After the game we went to a local diner for ribs and bbq nachos. Yummy!
