The grand ole opry

We're officially in Nashville, TN!

Unfortunately, I've been out of touch for two days now for two reasons, the first being that after my last post, I used my mobile as an alarm signal. Unfortunately, the battery completely drained during the night. The good thing was that we only overslept by five minutes, but after that my phone has refused to charge. When I plug it in, it just blinks. I tried leaving it there for quite a few hours, but all it did was blink.

I would have loved to post an entry last night, we spent the night at this amazing B&B, the Clearview Horse Farm (horrible website warning). It was a massive farm where they had a ton of horses, dogs and even two Llamas. We had a pool and everything. Nature even treated us to a beautiful, distant thunderstorm late at night.

Today we checked in at the hotel which is connected to the Grand Ole Oprey. It has the fantastic name "Gaylord Opryland Hotel & Convention Center" and it's absolutely massive. They love to tell you over and over that this is the largest non-gambling hotel in the world. Walking across the hotel is nothing short of a trek. We were even given maps and even though we had those, we still got lost (both me and
skrufsan as well as her father and her brother). As if the massive hotel wasn't enough, it's adjacent to an even greater mall. We spent an hour there and we still didn't even see a thrid of it.

Tonight we'll be joinded by Christine, Rose and Tom. I'll try to update again sometime soon.
