It is quaint and very busy, we had a buffet lunch and drinks. The food was delicious and plenty of choices. Everyone had at least 3 courses which pleased our guests.
From here we went over the Mississippi river to get a feel of the river!!!!. We stopped to look at the hotel where Martin Luther King was shot which is called the Lorraine Motel that closed on the day he died and has never reopened. Here we also met a lady called Jackie who's protest is well known and has now been active for almost 27 years. We called at the visitors centre which is informative and has statues of Elvis and BB King. A lot of famous people came from Memphis such names as Sybil Shepherd, Kathy Bates, John Daly the golf player. Leaving this area of Memphis we did a quick tour of our location around by the hotel which is The Double Tree by Hilton and the main areas such as Beale Street etc
We are very excited to be here and will be going out to check out the sights later!!!!!!
Tomorrow we visit the Sun Studios and Graceland!!!!!!!!! look out for more pics.
