Have you ever wondered what it would be like to pack up 2 adults and 4 kids for a 12 day adventure on the road? This summer we decided to try it out - my girlfriend and her 2 kids joined my 2 kids and myself for an adventure to Florida. We started out a couple days ago and the car-top carrier was SO loud we could hardly hear one another talk, much less think! The kids were so well behaved and got along great!
We stopped for lunch at a SONIC along the way to Nashville, TN. I must have deprived my children of so much - they'd never been to a Sonic before this!!! They ended up falling in love with the slushies, root beer floats and corn dogs! I have a feeling we'll be stopping at a few more Sonics on our way to Florida and back!
We stopped for a few days in Nashville, Tennessee and boy was it HOT! One of the coolest places that we stopped was the Parthenon. It's a real-life replica of the Parthenon. The kids thought it was pretty cool, too!
We enjoyed a night out on the town in downtown Nashville and went to the Wildhorse Saloon for dinner and line-dancing.
Being that I'm a teacher, we had to work in a little bit of history! We stopped for an afternoon at the Tennessee State Museum. Which reminds me, I should take the kids to the Minnesota State Museum sometime, too!
On our last day in Nashville we headed back to the main streets and visited a yummy candy store and a fantastic ice cream shop.
We all picked out some fudge, chocolates and a tin of yummy candies!
I loved Nashville and would love to come back and explore...maybe an adult-only trip?
Until next time, Nashville!!
Check back soon to see how our trip is going!
