Nashville :)

You may remember that I went to Nashville a few months ago. Because that was just for a school conference though, I still felt like there was so much of the city that I hadn't explored, so I jumped at the chance when my summer roommate invited me to go with her and a friend to Nashville for a day trip! I finally was able to see more of the city, and since I'm not going on any big trips this summer, I'll take any chance I can to do a day trip :) My roommate used to live in Nashville and acted as our tour guide. 

We started out downtown, which happened to be when the CMA festival was. Never in my life have I seen more cowboy boot and hats! I'm really not a country music person myself, but it was certainly an interesting experience to see - haha. 

After lunch and walking around downtown, we headed to the Parthenon in Centennial Park. Pretty cool! 

We also went someplace outside of Nashville (I'm not sure of the exact location) for frozen yogurt. We then walked around a bit more, which is when this picture was taken. My blue shirt, by the way, is from Francesca's Collections, and the white cardi-vest is from Forever 21. 

The day ended with what was my favorite part - exploring the Opryland Hotel! I had no idea how big it was. I was thinking, "Hmm, we're going to look at the inside of a big hotel. I guess it has a neat lobby and such?" I didn't know there were gorgeous gardens and fountains and shops - very fun :) I'd love to actually stay there someday. Who knows? It could happen. 

And that was our day. On a completely unrelated note, who's excited about the Bath and Body Works Semi-Annual Sale this week?? Can't wait to stock up.
