Allison's Spring Break was officially underway with our flight to Memphis, TN today to begin our southern road trip to see 4 SEC colleges.
We didn't land until dark, but had to see Graceland since in Memphis. No time for a tour, but can say we've seen it. The home and grounds were beautiful, but it sits on a very busy street next door to a Taco Bell and other commercial buildings. That kind of took the magic away!
We checked into the hotel and asked the shuttle driver for a good dinner spot at 9:30 at night. We quickly learned Beale Street is the "french quarter" of Memphis.
A lively street closed to cars and full of bright lights, loud jazz music and lots of Memphis BBQ!
We stopped in to Blues City Cafe and got a good sampling of some of the favorites...delicous ribs, baked beans, cole slaw, white toast and fries. Yum!
