![]() I'm taking a ten day road trip with my boyfriend next week from Chicago to southern Georgia. We won't be staying very long anywhere, but I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations of places to see, the best place to stay, etc in these cities... I've got a good idea of what to do in Nashville, as I've been there before, but Atlanta & Louisville are mysteries!
Louisville, KY Atlanta, GA Nashville, TN We are also planning on spending a day at Mammoth Cave in Kentucky- has anyone been there and has any advice for what to see / not to see? |

![]() where in georgia are you going? i've driven from cleveland to columbus, ga, a couple times. as for mammoth cave - make sure you get there early enough in the day. when i went there this summer, we got there in the afternoon and they told us it was too late to take a tour. bummer.
i haven't done much sightseeing in atlanta, but my mom was there last weekend and said the aquarium was disappointing. |

![]() Ooh Atlanta...are you at all interesting in Gone With the Wind? I've heard there's some great stuff relating to that to see out there....and as that's one of my favorite movies of all time I've always wanted to go there...
Other than that I don't really know what's there...CNN? ha...but anyway have fun on the road trip! |

![]() My family went there a long time ago. I remember LOTS of walking uphill and stairs. Take good, comfortable shoes and a jacket. Enjoy your trip!

![]() I love atlanta. I think georgia has to be my favorite state
![]() anyway. I've been to mammoth cave, but it's been so long(15 years maybe), I really can't remember. Louisville is nice. I wish I had a little more notice because my boss' wife is from there and she would have some adventures for you to do ![]() ![]() as far as places to eat-Joe's crabshack is on the water and is good from what I hear (I don't eat seafood) and if you want to get a little more ritzy, I recommend Kunz's fourth and market http://www.louisville.com/entertainment/dining.aspx. They have great pork chops!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() obviously, Louisville is home of the Derby, but there won't be much going on. I'd still try to see the sights if you get a chance. Hope you have fun in the great state of Kentucky. (please come back and tell everyone we aren't that bad ![]() |

![]() I remembered this thread from a few years ago, just because of Josh's awesome pics at the end.
http://ledge.fleetwoodmac.net/showthread.php?t=22025 Also, on the way through TN, you'll see hundreds of billboards for Rock City in Chattanooga. It's nice as a lookout point (you can see 7 states from the top of the ridge), but pretty cheesy otherwise. It's pretty up there, but don't plan for a lot of time up there. Maybe lunch. |

I think we'll be there early enough! You can make reservations for tours on the website so I think I'm going to do it to be safe. I am NOT a spontaneous vacation person! Thanks for the advice! ![]() |

![]() Thanks for the advice! We actually both want to do the super long 6 hour spelunking tour they offer but they don't do it in February- if we can want to do that I think that the longer walking tour won't be a problem! In fact, it might be nice to do that much walking after sitting on my ass in the car for so long.

I've driven through Kentucky once before and it was such a beautiful drive- you won't get any knocks from me. I grew up in KANSAS and people do not like to let me forget it! ![]() |

I want to go to Hatch Show Print. I think that'd be worth it? And maybe the Opry or the Hall of Fame ? Last time I was in Nashville I was there to see the Mac and I didn't do anything but walk around a bit, be drunk, and see the show. |

![]() I remember going there when I was like 10 (1986) and then, my dad and I went back not too long ago. It's a really beautiful little place. It's neat to see at least once. Yeah, it's kinda corny and aimed at kids for the most part, but I think you guys should go check it out. Oh and Fat Man's Squeeze...
