Day 213 - Are you ready for the country?

Memphis to Nashville

Next stop Nashville and the drive from Memphis isn't that long, so we managed to be checked in and ready to start sightseeing that afternoon.

It was a beautiful day so we drove into town and parked near the river, then walked up Broadway, you could say it's Nashville's equivalent of Bourbon St. and Beale St. At 5pm on a Tuesday there was plenty of live music already going on at numerous venues, and lots of places for eating and drinking.
We want up to the roof top of one of the more famous bars in town, Tootsie's Orchid Lounge, and before long we were joined by a family from Alabama that were in town for a nursery/gardening convention. They were able to give us some good advice in many areas, and were able to enlighten us as to why everyone speeds - it's because they generally don't get pulled over unless they're more that 5mph over the speed limit.
