Before leaving Nashville we visited the Opryland resort - just to look. What an amazing place!! www.gaylordopryland.com When we were there we got the distinct impression that the Air Force were trying to spend the defence budget on their own - some sort of convention or something like that.
Headed off east on the scenic route mainly US70 until we eventually ended up at Sevierville for the night.

This was the last open day at Dollywood before they closed down to put up the holiday decorations. So we had to go didn't we?? We really enjoyed a full day there, riding on the roller coasters, a trip on a steam train, and listened to a Bluegrass concert Yee-Hah.
It was a lovely sunny day but quite cool mid 50's I think.
Stayed overnight in Pigeon Forge.

Spent most of today visiting the Smoky Mountains NP. Beautiful day and great scenery, but too many cars and people for the narrow roads. In that sense it is a bit like the Lake District in the UK. We took the scenic tour out and around Cade's Cove.
Then headed over the Smoky's, through Cherokee and ended up just outside Asheville for the night.
