We family of five 2 adults and three children 14,8 and 5 started up our trip in New Orleans to Memphis in the morning of the October 9 th , we had booked our hotel in Memphis months ago with Marriotts SpringHill Suites, ok this family didn´t drive after a satnav so we had only the directions from printout googlemaps with us in the car and trusted the signs aswell on the road, well after driving for some hours we should have been there , but ended up on the outside of Memphis so we had to ask for directions back to Memphis, so if I was Memphis I would put up big signs where it says Memphis City lol , maybe there where some signs that we didnt see , but hey how we found our hotel at last and got checked in and got a nice room with two double beds and a sleeper sofa for our teenagers in the other half of the room -good space and clean and in the middel of every thing , You can just walk out of the buldings and see alot we took a horse carrige since we didn´t have so much time and we got a lovely lady telling us about the city when she and her carrige horse drow us around in the city
We learned about the first elevator in Memphis that costed 1 dollar to get up , but people walked down since they didn´t trust it to be safe to take it down , This building where the elevator is , is right outside of the SpringHill Suites , oh well back to the hotel - swimmingpool outdoors with a hottbub a big hit for our kids it was pretty hot when we arravied so I am glad the outdoor pool still had open for season . Breakfast is good lots of healty optsions for the once that like that . Next morning we where heading for Nashville , but first we had to see Graceland, and with our sucess with driving we asked in the reception how to get there and that the explaining should be told in a kindergarden way for us sort of lol - well a very good explaining we got left out when driving from the parklot of the hotel and then next right which we did so happy we made it to Graceland without any stopping Great hotel and personal
