Nashville Sights

We played typical tourist today and took a Gray Line tour of downtown Nashville. We went to the State Capitol, the Parthenon, and rode along Music Row where Studio B is (home of Elvis Presley). We browsed through the Country Music Hall of Fame and "sang" on the stage of the Ryman Auditorium (the "Mother Church of Country Music" and original location of the Grand Ole Opry). Although we had an hour at the museum, we could have spend all day looking at the costumes, cars, and displays that take you down memory lane from stars of the past to current performers. Our tour ended at Legends Corner, a familiar haunt of Opry performers, where we enjoyed a drink and live entertainment. Our driver, Sylvia, was a country music wannabe from the 60's who played us some of the cuts from her CD's and provided insights into the search for country music stardom.
