Part 11. Nashville Day Two. Museums!

It did rain the second night at our Boondockers Welcome in Nashville. It was a night of little sleep. We had gotten in late from the Opry show and tour, and there was a fierce thunderstorm that passed over us. It was a little spooky!

We got up early and headed back downtown, where we took in museums! Three museums: the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Johnny Cash Museum, and the Patsy Cline Museum. We ate lunch at a place recommended to us by a lady I met at a bourbon tasting back in Bardstown.

The Country Music Hall of Fame
So cool! I love early country music, Americana/American roots music. I don't know much about the 80s-90s-2000s, except Americana. 

Anyway, it was very fun to see artifacts and videos, and listen to music. 

I took short video clips, but the sound didn't come out as well as it was coming in to my own ears, so I edited them way down just to share a bit. Apologies for the sound quality.


And photos!
