| Front of Graceland |
This is what I went to Memphis for. I didn't know it was so commercialized , but all the same I enjoyed it. It was about 1:30 or 2:00 when we got there and stood in line to ride the shuttles over to the big house. It didn't take too long and you got an audio player to tell you what you were seeing.

This is one of the planes the Lisa Marie. The other was called the Hound Dog II. The Lisa Marie was opulent. It had a dining table, a bedroom and office and the seat belts were 16 caret gold plated. Connor had never been on a plane but I told him this was not was the planes were normally like. We also got to see the car museum and really liked that. The Pink caddy was my favorite.This is Elvis grave. The Meditation Garden was very beautiful. They had a lot of costumes from his movies and even the blue swede shoes.
After we were done about 4:30 we went back to the hotel to cool off and rest. Dan wanted to go to Pete and Sam's Italian restaurant to have the bar-b-q pizza he saw on TV that was supposed to be the best ever. There was so much food. Dan ate half but no one else even came close. We drove in a downpour to the restaurant but it had quit raining by the time we got there. Unfortunately it was pouring when we were ready to leave. Dan and Connor went for the car. Connor didn't know Dan could run that fast. He said he only got two drops of rain on him. A good day.
