Enjoying the Opryland Hotel

Jason and I have had a wonderful time rejuvenating in Nashville! The Opryland Hotel is breathtakingly beautiful. We have walked around enjoying all the views as well as sat on a bench, table, and gazebo while eating or sipping coffee.
After checking in, we walked around until we found a nice place to eat. Opryland has many restaurants and shops. We spent the afternoon shopping, walking, and having ice cream. We ate dinner at a great restaurant, and then headed to the outdoor hot tub! There is something incredible about relaxing in a hot tub while it's 26 degrees! Steam rolled off the water as it hit the freezing air, but we stayed nice and toasty! We ended the night sitting at a table with Godiva and coffee.
This morning was perfect.... coffee, muffin, gazebo, and garden waterfall views. We shopped at OpryMills and had a fantastic BBQ lunch at Neely's!!! You know.... Down Home with the Neely's on Food Network. It was sooo good. We had delicious pulled pork sandwiches, Memphis style with coleslaw on top. Tonight we got in the outdoor hot tub twice as well as sat by the Delta river enjoying Godiva and coffee...again! Today the pedometer registered 22, 125 steps, which is over 6 miles! Perhaps that evens out the ice cream and Godiva!
Tomorrow....... coffee, muffin, and another great view.
