Chattanooga

The second half of spring break we spent on a mini vacation to Tennessee. We had considered DC but it was intimidating and expensive. My folks met us there and we did all the touristy things it had to offer. It was probably torture for Dad who hates heights and was finishing off a bout with vertigo. The Epley Maneuver has never been attempted so many times in a vacation rental.

Ruby Falls- This was the favorite of the grown-ups. 

 

Rock City- They had this sign when you walked in. At first I was insulted. They kind of broke their own rule by adding the garish glowing nursery rhyme scenes at the end. All attempts at art look pretty silly next to creation. The view and rock formations were really cool. This was the favorite of the kids.

  

 

Incline Mountain Railroad- Underwhelming. Also, accidentally paid twice because I am an idiot.

Cloudland Canyon State Park- Very pretty. Terrible map. We definitely got lost.

We stayed in a "treehouse" that was really just a tiny house on stilts with branches hung on the walls as decor. It was cute enough though. It had an outdoor shower and was pretty high so as to feel very connected to the neighborhood squirrels. Rory lost his other front tooth!
