Family Trip to Nashville
November 18-20, 2007
| One of our favorite things in Nashville is breakfast at the Cascade area of the Opryland Hotel. Darla with Elyse, Jordan and Ashleigh. |
| Having driven to Nashville on Sunday afternoon, we went to the Christmas program at the Grand Ole Opry auditorium. The girls liked the bear dances with this young girl. |
The girls are very much into bears, so this sequence of bear dances was right up their alley. I always like the Nutcracker Suite music set to dance. | |
| They had a precision drill of whiteclad "toy soldiers" to Nutcracker music, like last year. It culminates with a firing of the cannon to take down the column of soldiers. |
| After breakfast on Monday morning, Jeff and I stood around and watched the fountains next to the Cascade restaurant for a while. It's a relaxing place, and the jumping fountains are fascinating. |
We walked around the gardens at the Opryland Hotel to see the plants and the Christmas decorations. Brenda sits with the girls at the poinsetta tree in the Delta area. | |
| The decorations for Christmas were well underway, and added to the natural beauty of the gardens around the canal. |
I was impressed with the number of beautiful orchids that they had attached to the trees, and the generally high level of care for the plants.
