After dinner Russell and Addison headed back to the hotel. Trey and I decided to go check out the action on Beale Street. We stopped and listened to a band at Wet Willies.
Saturday morning we woke up and went downstairs at the hotel to enjoy a complimentary breakfast. We had to rush to arrive at the famous Peabody Hotel by 11:00 AM to let Addison watch the ducks walk down the red carpet and into the fountain. My parents took my sisters and I, as kids, so I wanted Addison to see it for herself. Although, I'm sure we will have to do it again for her to be able to remember it!
After watching the ducks walk down the carpet we decided to avoid the crowd and take the elevator up to see the ducks palace!
Afterwards, we went back down to let Addison get a closer look of the ducks.
While strolling back to the hotel after dinner Friday night, Addison told granddad that she wanted to ride the "train" AKA trolley. So riding the trolley was our next Memphis adventure!
Addison loved hanging from the handle and went back and forth between her dad and grandad!
Then we were off to one of Addison's favorite spots in the world! She wanted to see animals! So to the zoo we went...
After roaming the zoo for hours, we decided it was time to eat again. We were famished, and Addison was extremely tired. So we took off to Houston's. The food was delicious! Russell and Mary used to frequent the restaurant when they lived in Memphis.
After dinner, it was time to say our goodbyes, which is way to familiar these days! Trey only has one week left of training! After four weeks of training, we are so ready for him to be back home!
We cannot wait for another visit to Memphis, TN only next time we expect Mary, Angela, Carter, and Reese to join us!
