After our longest day of driving, we arrive in Nashville around 8pm to be greeted by the friendly staff of the Hunton Hotel. We are offered a vodka lemonade for the human guests and a gift bag for Zena. We retreat to our “guests with pets floor” to watch the DNC. A beautiful room greeted us! We were able to check all of our boxes in Nashville. After the beautiful vistas of the west, Nashville is a different more urban experience Many tourists taking in the music in the “district” which echoes from every bar up and down the street. I doubt there is another place where so many talented musicians come together in such a unique way. We walk the Vanderbilt campus (beautiful) and Centinnial park with it’s full scale replica of the Parthenon (odd). Zena is picked up by the hotel staff for her day at the spa to be bathed and groomed and we depart for lunch and the district. The Nashville hot chicken is the famous dish with the purported origin to have been a spurned wife who spiced up the chicken only to have her husband love it. The chicken is very tasty. We make our way to the district and listen to some great music at Tootsie’s. Fun times in Nashville. Headed for a quick stop in Asheville and then home
