Today we went on a Greyline historical tour which meant an early start, 8.30am pick up.
The first stop was the Hermitage, home of Andrew Jackson the 7th president of America.
“The Hermitage is a historical plantation and museum located in Davidson County, Tennessee, United States, 10 miles east of downtown Nashville. The plantation was owned by Andrew Jackson, the seventh President of the United States, from 1804 until his death at the Hermitage in 1845.”
After the Hermitage we stopped for an early lunch at a southern buffet.
In the afternoon it was Belle Meade plantation where they bred race horses, amazing property. Huge wooden veranda of rocking chairs, a winery and exhibit about the slaves that built and worked on the plantation.
“Belle Meade Plantation represents various architectural styles of the 19th century. General William G. Harding, master of Belle Meade Plantation, enjoyed a penchant for architecture and design and typically choose the latest trends in building design for his beloved plantation.”
Dinner tonight was downtown on 2nd Avenue at the Spaghetti Factory. The food was amazing and inside was beautiful, chandeliers and even a tram!
