Tuesday morning, we ate the free breakfast in our Hotel, the Park Tower Inn... http://www.parktowerinn.com/ (just a street back off of the main drag and right behind the "Red Roofed" outlet mall). We really liked this hotel. It was reasonable, clean, and had 3 pools to pick from!!! Yippee!!! After breakfast, we loaded up, went to Dollywood, and wore ourselves out all over again!
While there, we got to go and see the Zoboomafoo show that the Kratt brothers were putting on during KIDSFEST at Dollywood! (They have an animal show on PBS for kids).We went and saw this show last year, but this year, one of the brothers wasn't there because his wife was having a baby! It was a really good show. The neat part is, is that evening, when we stopped at Bennett's BBQ to eat dinner, the brother that had done the show (Martin, I think...the one on the left in the above picture), came in with his two sons to eat also! Mark looked his way and said "Hey...Hey Brother...!!....You did a good job today!" Mr. Kratt was very nice and asked us which show we had been at...we told him the first one of the morning...he commented about how it was hard without his brother's help, and that he was glad that we had come and enjoyed it. Very nice man! I was star-struck!!! :o) I tried to get a pic. as we were leaving, but the camera wouldn't cooperate and I would rather have died than to have asked him for a picture! (That's just me!!!)
Anyway........
Nana & Paw-Paw drove down on Tuesday afternoon to meet up with us, so we left the park around 3 to go back to the hotel and clean up to go to the Comedy Barn that night with the Grandparents! It was FUN!!
After that, we went to Creston & Mark's most favorite place in Pigeon Forge...the TRACK! They like to ride the Go-Carts and the other little kid rides there! Here's Creston having a complete BALL!!!!!
This is my attempt at getting a good "Family Pic" at the TRACK in front of the "Old lady who lived in a shoe...." Paw-Paw took this one and I forgot to tell him to ZOOM in!! :o)
It was a good and quick trip! I took so many pictures, that I'm putting them into a slide-show for you all to look through!
If you've never been to Pigeon Forge before and you have little kids, you really need to tkae them sometime.....BUT....plan on going for 4 or more days.....too much to see and do in only 2!!!
