Chugganooga

I have been wanting to take Major to Chattanooga for at least a year now and last week we got our chance. We just spent one night, but had so much fun. We there on a Sunday mid-day and checked into our hotel and then went to the aquarium. We had a ton of fun, even though Major ran through most of it. That night we walked to dinner then back to the hotel for swimming. On Monday, we had a difference of opinion about where we wanted to go but because we were there and it is harder to do Rock City and Ruby Falls in a day trip, we went there instead of the Creative Discovery Museum. I am thinking we may make a day trip on M's bday for that one. Anyway, we were the first ones at Rock City and pretty much had it to ourselves. It was a perfect and beautiful fall day and a great way to spend the day together. After we left Rock City, we went to Ruby Falls. Neither Josh nor I had been there before. It was different than I thought it would be, but still really neat. The story behind Ruby Falls was the best part. Major was a little restless during that trip bc you are 1100 ft underground, in a cave, for an hour and a half. You have to walk in a straight line and there isn't any room to run which is not Major's style! After Ruby Falls though, I really wanted to grab a quick lunch and take it to the river front for a picnic. I am really glad we did that. Chattanooga, or as Major called it, Chugganooga, was so much fun. The city was very kid friendly, it was easily accessible, and very clean. 2 days really wasn't enough time to really enjoy all of it, but we will definitely be back. Here are a few highlights of our trip:

All in all, a great little getaway. We will definitely be back Chugganooga!
