Nashville to San Antonio (Texas) 2018

We visited in April 2018 for a 12 day road-trip. The climate was perfect for travelling. Nashville was alive with a great buzz. We managed to get tickets for the Grand Ole Oprey on Saturday night, with eight wonderful performances. On then to Memphis where we visited Sun City and got a guided tour of the Gipson guitar factory. Really impressed with Gracelands, which conjured up lots of fond memories of the Elvis days. Lots to see in New Orleans from ghost tours at night to enjoying the on-street music. Attended the opening day of the New Orleans Music Festival, with Sting putting on a wonderful performance as the closing act.

Headed to the Houston Space Centre and then on to a few days stay in the amazing Mayan Dude Ranch near San Antonio.
