Christmas (on New Year’s Eve) at the Opryland Hotel

Don and I are fortunate to live just minutes from one of the largest hotels in the country, Opryland, which also happens to be a great place to do some walking. It has 3 huge greenhouse/atriums with walking paths throughout that anyone may use at no charge (parking is free if you park at the Opry Mills mall and walk over). At Christmastime the hotel goes all out to decorate. We have been over there once before during this season, and there were mobs of people there, but we went back last night when it was much less crowded and I was able to get a few pictures. We stopped in at Rusty’s Sports Bar & Grill for dinner and to watch the last quarter of the Music City Bowl (Congratulations Vandy!!) and then went home and were in bed by 10:00 p.m. Fear not, though; we were awakened at midnight by the neighbors’ fireworks.

Happy New Year, Everyone. Click below to see my Opryland pictures.
