Our Honeymoon - Friday and Saturday

Friday morning we packed up our belongings, took some pictures of the cabin, and wrote in the guestbook (or whatever it is called). We drove down the mountain for the last time and headed back through the Smokies to make our way to Deal's Gap, which is the end/beginning of The Dragon. The Dragon is a very twisty, windy road that motorcyclists love to drive on (and cars too). Some motorcycles tip over with all of the turns (sad!). It was fun to go on (in a car, not a motorcycle!), and there were some pretty views.

Writing in the guestbook.
Where we ate lunch.
 

Then we drove to Knoxville, where we stayed Friday night. After much wandering around, we finally ate supper at the Mellow Mushroom (the least sketchy of many restaurants we went by). Then after several attempts, we finally found a real movie theater and watched Cars 2!


Like the decor? It's fitting.
We had talked about coming part way home between Saturday and Sunday, but we decided to just come all the way back. We drove through a crazy, but very short rainstorm in Indiana, but otherwise it was an uneventful trip home. We had turned off the GPS when we got to "familiar territory," but we turned it back on when we were just a few blocks away from our new home, so that we could hear, "Arriving at destination." :) And of course, my wonderful husband carried me over the threshold of our new home.

The End

Well, at least of our honeymoon stories. :)
