Smokey Mountains Adventure

This past week we traveled to the great smokey mountains of Tennessee. We had a blast! The first day we drove to Chattanooga, TN and spent the night. While we were there, we went to Lookout Mountain. We rode the Incline Railroad up the mountain. It was a scary ride the last little bit up because you were steadily climbing. The going down was a lot better than going up. After we finished our ride up the mountain, we drove the rest of the way to our destination. While in Townsend, TN we were able to see some amazing wildlife at Cade's Cove. We saw more that I took pictures of because of my crazy camera, but oh well. We also went to Dollywood Splash Country and to Ripley's Aquarium. The aquarium was awesome. There was also a river that we all went tubing on behind our cabins. All the way home yesterday, Coop would not stop talking about floating down the river on his raft. He had a blast. All in all we had a wonderful week with the whole McGuire clan...
