Home Sick?

Friday 30th November 2018

We had a late afternoon flight home, so after a last breakfast at the Frothy Monkey we left our bags in the good hands of the hotel and headed down to the Honkey Tonks.

After listening in at a couple we ended up in one of our favourites, Roberts Western World, more traditional style of country music.

One artist had only just started their set, so we had their company for 3 hours, with some hot dogs and grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch.  What a great way to spend our last few hours.

Some great pedal steel, my favourite.

Unfortunately all too soon we headed back to the hotel to reclaim our bags, grab a cab and off to the airport for our flight home.  On the flight home we were treated to this very unusual and special sun rise.

Cowboy Boots

Monday 26th November 2018

First stop Frothy Monkey and pancakes for breakfast followed by a quick pit stop at the Ryman giftshop for Wendy.

Then it was time for some shopping.  Purchased a teal  top and black hooded cardigan with Nashville skyline in silver and sparkles.  Tried on boots in a couple of shops but very expensive.

Next it was a tour of the George Jones museum on 2nd Avenue where I go to try out a wooden rocking chair, followed by lunch in the downstairs restaurant.  Sweet potato fries and coleslaw with live music.

Afterwards headed back up broadway but only as far as Bootleggers Inn which had a great singer on stage before heading back to hotel.

This evening we took advantage of the hotel shuttle, as it was so cold, to get to the wildhorse saloon for live music and line dancing.  Cola was only $3.20 with free re-fills – cheap evening!

We had dinner in a pizza place off broadway and then stopped in at Roberts Western World for some more traditional country music before calling it a night.
