In April 2021, I road tripped from Orlando, FL to visit Tennessee for the first time!

The first few days we stayed in Pigeon Forge then switched hotels to see what was happening in Gatlinburg.

We did things like:
Anakeesta: an outdoor playground on top of the mountains! We had to take Gondolas (or you could take a bus) to get to the top.

Ripley's Believe it or Not Aquarium: only takes a few hours to get through but they had some really unique exhibits. The moving walkway under the sharks was my favorite.

Alpine Mountain Coaster: definitely my favorite adventure. You just cruise up, over, and around a mountain on a little cart.
