Exploring Memphis: Music, History, and Adventures

“When I was walking in Memphis I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis But do I really feel the way I feel?” 🎶🎶 . I do so love this song! . In our two days in Memphis, we 🎸Walked down Beale 🎸Listened to live music 🎸Found Elvis 🎸Ate fudge 🎸Ate barbecue (twice!) - Central BBQ won for taste, Rendezvous for cool factor 🎸Saw the Peabody Hotel ducks 🎸Explored the Bass Pro Pyramid 🎸Drove by St. Jude’s and talked about the awesome work they do there 🎸Said hi to real-life besties in Memphis 🎸Drove over the Mississippi River 🎸Did the Pink Palace Museum 🎸Saw so much history… . And did so safely! My parents, who lived here years ago, were nervous about our visit for sure. Memphis is a rocky downtown - if you don’t do well with homeless people, it might not be your place. We went downtown mid-day, stayed in a hotel outside of the city, had talks about awareness and safety, and did just fine. . Did I miss seeing the best of Memphis - other than the zoo? ❤️
