TN Vacation Day 5

Today we started the day off by eating breakfast at our condo. After all our bellies were full we headed out for a jammed packed fun filled day!!!


We started our day by going to the Ripley's Aquarium!



There was lots of different kinds of fish to see including ones that you had to look really hard for.



There was even a huge shark tank that you could look down into!









We all agreed that Carter had the best view while going through the Shark Tunnel; he was able to see all of the sharks swim right above him without ever moving his head!









Sawyer and Mason really enjoyed being right with the penguins as they were being fed their lunch.











Carter and Mason enjoyed the Aquarium so much that it wore them out; literally!



For lunch we heading to the Mayfield Dairy Bar for our foot long corn dogs!!! Sawyer's face when he saw what we were going to eat was priceless! After our corn dogs we walked down to Ben & Jerry's to get some ice cream for dessert.



Our next adventure was found at the Ripley's Guinness World Record Museum.



Sawyer thought it was pretty cool that he was able to do what the statue was doing!



And of course Daddy thought was pretty cool for acting like Elvis by his boat.



We then discovered a little place called Old Smoky Mountain Moonshine.



You could take a free tour to see how moonshine was made. Once we realized what the tour was we realized why it was free - what you see is what you get!


While Daddy checked out how moonshine was being made me and the boys enjoyed sitting back on some rocking chairs and listening to the band play!






As we were leaving Sawyer pointed out to me that this big guy had spilled his juice. We will continue to let him think it was juice.

On our way back to the condo to call it a night and to eat dinner the boys fell asleep. We thought it would be good for them to get a little break in so Tom and I drove around the Arts & Crafts Community and saw some great artist and some great TN scenery.
