My first thought for the day was that today is the last full day of our holiday and my second thought was that the last of the Arkansas gang would be here today. No time to be laying around in bed so up and getting organised as usual.... tea made in the coffee pot and downstairs to pick up some food and take back to the room so we can get ready for the day. First thing on my list is to go to the park across the road for some photos as we've been here so many...

Are you singing the song yet? The day started out as usual... I went down to the lobby to get some breakfast for us to eat in the room. While we were slowly getting ready for the day there was a few texts between Lena, Ginny and I making plans for the day. I mentioned we had been wanting to see the Peabody Ducks but hadn't managed to get there yet and the others said they'd love to see them too so the plan was to meet in the lobby around 10.30 so we coul...

I'm one of those people that just feels sick if I don&#...

We are staying at the Sleep Inn @ Court Square which is right on the trolley line and very reasonably priced with breakfast included. Lena and Dan - our cruising buddies from Arkansas - suggested this place and it was definitely a good recommendation. Nothing fancy but certainly had all we need including the much appreciated coffee maker for me to brew a cup of tea at all hours of the day and night and a fridge! This is the first time I've really had no set ...
