things to do in Tenn?

[Indianavol4eva]

leaving tomorrow to go on a short vacation in tennessee with my girlfriend to visit family. we are both 18, and we will be in nashville for one day, and then in cleveland (right outside Chattanooga) for 4 days. anyone got suggestions for some fun stuff we can do while we are there?

i think when your in Cleveland your not far from Fall creek falls, and the Lost Sea. Don't really know what kind of fun you are looking for?

Phonolux record shop in Nashville if you are into that kinda thing.
Ernest Tubb record shop, or Third Man Records.

All close together and all fun to check out if you dig that sorta thing.

And being 18 you cant , legally, enjoy the beer in the joints as of yet.

Have a good trip.

haha yeah i figured a lot of ideas would be shot down just from the fact that we are under 21. i guess what im looking for are things we could go do that are fun, or places we can visit or what not. thanks for the suggestions..

Haven't been in decades but the Elliston Place Soda Shop always had good food for cheap. It's also in a cool area near Vandy and Centennial Park/The Parthenon.

Go tubing in the smokies, or rafting on the Ocoee.

Cleveland is so close to Chatt that you must drive down!! There's not much to do in Cleveland but in Chatty we have:

Lake Winnepesaukah (lake winnie for short) its an amusement park that's pretty fun.

The Aquarium and Imax 3D theater

The Riverwalk and downtown Chattanooga

Nightfall is a Friday night concert series in downtown Chatt (pretty sure Cleveland has something similar to it too)

There are a couple of 18 and up clubs in Chattanooga (or there were when I was 18)

There's A LOT to do in Chattanooga and Nashville as well!!!

Enjoy your time in our great state!

Btw you can choose the skill and difficulty level on which you raft the Ocoee. Most places will not take you down the rougher rapids UNLESS you're experienced. It's super fun!

And if you on the Interstate going thru Chatt, hit up Sugar's Ribs! Some great eating....makin my mouth water just thinking bout it.

VolGal is right Chat town is a pretty cool place. The Aquarium is nice and great hiking/mtn biking trails in the city. They used to have the biggest mall in Tennessee. Don't know if that's still true.

The only thing I would recommend not doing is Rock City. As a kid I always wanted to go because of the barns. After 15 years of waiting, I went and was severely disappointed. Still makes me sad.

Yeah. Keep your car doors locked and don't stray too far away from heavy pedestrian traffic areas if in downtown Nashville or Chattanooga.
