Opry Mills Dining In An Aquarium Exploring Around The Mall & Shopping Nashville Tennessee

[@romagifford8369]

Was that big flood in Nashville in 2010? My husband and I were vacationing from Canada. We went to NASCAR races in Bristol. We had plans to go to Nashville and Memphis but there was flooding. We went to Florida to visit friends.

I’m not a mall person but of course Tennessee never disappoints…..that mall I wouldn’t mind doing!!!…I’m loving this little road trip y’all are doing, y’all are more important to me more than ever..I lost my daughter 3 weeks ago and she was always the one who wanted to travel so now I’m gonna travel with y’all and I thank y’all so much for that!!😊💕😞

Will, let dawn speak for herself. I’d love to hear more of dawn’s own thoughts and opinions.

[@donnaturpin5995]

Love the mall but prefer rainforest cafe over aquarium. And usually we will just walk thru the aquarium. Go to the was museum and you can park at opry mills and walk to opryland hotel and ride delta flatboats!! Its beautiful at christmas! You will have to come back for ICE!!❤

[@gerryohara7656]

It wasn't Opry Mills that got flooded out. It was Opryland Theme Park, (March, 1975) . Opryland run from 1973- 1997 with 46 million visitors Gaylode Entertainment torn down Opryland First day of 76.It was said because the city of Nashville put in monies for the area downtown. We real miss Opryland.

[@lindablair919]

I loved Opryland. I have been to lots of theme parks but think it was my favorite. It had so many great music shows.

[@donnaturpin5995]

Yes the mall did flood out, i forgot what year, but i went before the flood and after. They use to have a stingray lagoon but didnt put it back after flood!!

Another great video. You guys were walking on sacred grounds. It was once the site of the long gone Opryland, USA theme park. We loved that place! I saved the pamphlets, map, & souvenirs books from there.

Scott and I love going to all the different types of malls. We will definitely have to stop here when ever we are in town. I love it Will I always tell Scott I am just gonna look and then 30 mintues later I buy something. 🤣 The food and restaurant look pretty cool inside. Happy Valentine's guys! ❤️

We went to Opry Mills quite a few times in the years we lived in middle TN. We lived in Cheatham County just north of Nashville for years. Yeah the flood was in May 2010. The Cumberland River flooded and the Harpeth River. We were living up the hill in Ashland City so we were fortunate our home wasn’t affected but our small town got some flooding near the Cumberland River. Thanks for sharing!

Do you have Shrek feet Will? lol Is there still a music instrument store there? maybe Gibson? Also did you guys get your Smokies parking tag? i ordered my annual pass online, had to pre order as they were out! keep the great videos coming!! be done in the Smokies next week to sign for my apartment at the Villas!
