Day 20 ... Hello Memphis!
Hi Guys! We are in Memphis ;-) but we came to late yesterday to go to Graceland! So we will go today and we are so excited :-) Yesterday morning started a little bit stressful ... we had to do a few things before we could go to Memphis. The first thing was to send a package home to CT. We just had to much stuff and had to send home a few things …
Wait, No Graceland?
... ate my kettle cooked potato chips. We debated whether it was worth eating a (very) early dinner at a Thai / vegetarian place down the street from the hostel, but it was closed on Mondays so we just headed back to our room to decide on somewhere else to eat. Kelsey (seriously, crazy) went for another run in the heat, and once she was home and showered again we left for Noodle Doodle Do, a sushi and noodle joint literally two stores down from Pilgrim House. ...
The Road to Memphis
... back to the hotel to eat.
While we waited for the food to be prepared we pulled up to the bar and watched one of the many TV being played. It just so happened that tonight was the opening ceremony for the 2012 Olympics and our timing was perfect as the torch was being brought into the stadium at that time. Aria was fully engaged in seeing this. So, we got to see the Olympic flame get lit before we left the restaurant - excellent timing.

Day 21 ... Heart Break Hotel!
... audio tour. That was perfect because you had really time to enjoy and listen to his life! The house is beautiful just the inside is a little crazy ;-)! It's pretty sad when you see where he spend his last night, which car was the last that he drove and then of course when you stay in front of his grave! I can't really explain the feeling it's just sad that he died just 44 years old! After the house we went to the little shops and museums! ...
Elvis has NOT left the building.
... couple from Minnasota called Nick and Ashley. Nick and I danced the night away while Dave and Ashley rolled their eyes and took photos... We missed the last shuttle home and had to pay $25 for a cab. An hour later I was head down the toilet talking to God and asking Dave to not let me die... The next morning I was sat eating biscuits, boiled egg and gravy like a trooper and we headed for the open road.
We arrived in Nashville around 3pm ...
