Dollywood, Part 1

This summer, we took a trip with the Bettridge clan to Dollywood. I'll admit, I wasn't too trilled with a plane ride with Rylynn, but she did very well. Here are some of the highlights.

The first night, we stayed at a hotel in Knoxville before going on to Gatlinburg to meet up with the rest of the family. Mallory and her family stayed at the same hotel, so we were able to hang out with them.

One of the things we did is go to the Titanic Museum in Pigeon Forge. It was a very interesting tour. Seeing all the various items they had was fascinating.

One thing they did have there was one of the violins that belonged to one of the band members on the ship. It was on loan to the museum. It was one of the violins that played as the Titanic was going down. Normally, they don't allow photography in the museum, but they were allowing only photos being taken of that violin.
