Every year for Christmas, we make it a point to go to Opryland to see the Christmas lights. This year, we went with some good friends. I will just say that the trip wasn't as pleasant as it could be. First the weather was horrible, it had been raining all day. The traffic getting off the interstate was hectic to say the least. There were cops at every light directing traffic. After grabbing a bite to eat, we headed across to the street to the hotel. Typically we park at the outlets and walk over to avoid paying $20 to park. This year, because of the weather, we splurged. There were so many people. We didn't expect so many people to brave the weather and the threat of snow, but they did. A huge company was having a Christmas party and I think there were a lot of curious people to see the hotel since it re-opened after the flood in May. Then on top of that, it was really hard to navigate with a stroller. Last year when we went, I don't remember it being so difficult. The lights....well I wasn't that impressed. I think next year we will find a new place to see Christmas lights. If we make it back to Opryland, it will be to do Ice and that's it. The one thing that I can say was that we enjoyed the company.
