On Friday morning we went to Cracker Barrel cause Papa has to have his biscuits and gravy. Then we hopped in the car and started to drive across Tennessee to Pigeon Forge. This seems to be a very unorganized place with a lot of construction workers not doing anything. We finally arrived at our hotel!
The first thing we did was go to the pool.The pool had a blue swirly slide and then you drop into 5ft of water! Caleb went first, then Kirsten then Ryan. We kinda forgot that Kirsten can't swim in the deep water, so Granny jumped in and grabbed Kirsten and took her to the shallow water. If Granny wasn't there, Ryan was already telling Kirsten to grab onto his back. So, she was in great hands, her two brothers and her Granny were there!
We got very hungry and decided to go to the Mellow Mushroom. We recognized this restaurant cause we went there in North Carolina. It was gooooood!
Next morning we got dressed, ate breakfast and drove a couple of miles to Dollywood! Caleb says his favorite parts were - going on his first roller coaster called Thunderhead. He also had a lot fun on a yellow ride called the SlideWinder. Kirsten loved the Rough Waters when all of us could ride in one big circle raft! She got soaking wet! She was dripping! It was very funny! Ryan's favorite ride was the Mystery Mine. It was really fast and had a big loop on it and when you go down, a big fire starts to happen! We all loved the River Battle. We jumped in boats and each of us had a water cannon that we shot water at other boats and people on the outside of the ride. We all ended up soaked to the bone! Papa liked it the first time, but didn't want to go the second time. He squirted us from outside the ride!
We had a blast and it was awesome! We went back to the hotel and the pool and had leftover pizza for dinner!
Next day - Sunday, we drove home and Uncle Paul and Aunt Brenda were already at the house. We unpacked our bags and told them about our trip.
So, stay tuned - we will have more tomorrow!
