We had just driven 700 miles and were within 10 miles of Nashville. Regee checked on the nearest hotel to us on the I-40 and came up with the Gaylord Opryland Resort. Not exactly in Nashville but we just needed a place to crash. I had no idea what a Gaylord Resort was but it turned out to be a vast 3-acre hotel totally encased in glass with endless restaurants, gardens, waterfalls and in excess of 2,000 rooms (no kidding)!! Just the quiet, intimate little place you need after a long drive.
A quiet refuge
Waterfalls everywhere
The lobby had cleared out after midnight.
Earlier, it was like Union Station.
The next morning we had an early breakfast and looked around. The other 10, 000 people were not up yet. But, sadly, we missed the Grand Ole Opry. Next time!
