Question of the Week, "With fall quickly approaching, what is your favorite way to enjoy the fall foliage?"
Last Week's Question, "Did you visit any of the new attractions this year? Which ones?"
Jeannette writes, "We visited one of Glatinburg's new attractions this spring, we went to the Christ In The Smokies Museum while we were there in March, my 2 sons & I really enjoyed it. I am glad they were able to open this up where Christus Gardens use to be. We wanted to go to the Titanic Museum while we were in Tennessee, but it didn't open up until the next weekend by that time we were already back home. I am hoping to get back to Tennessee again soon am planning on going to The Titanic on a return visit."
Tom writes, "Took the whole family to the Titanic Museum....Had a great time! Also, saw the Black Bear Jamboree, good show and good food." |
