We arrived in Gatlinburg around dinner time. We first went to our hotel which was surrounded by trees and mountains. The view was amazing. After checking in we rode the towns trolley down to eat dinner. We were planning on eating at the aquarium but the restaurant they had there was only open for lunch. So we made our way down the main street of the town and found a place that claimed to have homemade Italian food. This was the worst food we had eaten during our entire trip. But hey one bad meal isn’t so bad. After dinner we just walked around town and went to several of the little shops they had around. This town is very much so a tourist trap. Good thing Brandon and I caught onto that, lol. The next morning we ate at the wonderful Pancake Pantry. After that we made our way up the mountain and rode the Aerial Tramway. This was very fun and again had beautiful views. After this we drove to the Smokey Mountain National Park and drove around, played in the creek and enjoyed the great outdoors.
