Sunday Hubby and I decided to go to the Nashville Zoo. I've lived in TN 5 years now and I've never been to what is a diamond in the rough. It actually felt like we were somewhere else, outside of Nashville enjoying the beautiful 65 degree day. I've decided this is the perfect temperature for me. It was great! They had many benches to sit and observe the animals and I loved the Bamboo area where you can actually rent and hold parties. Most of all Hubs and I got to have a "fun" day. It was a great stress escape!

So if ever in Nashville, I highly recommend the Zoo. Something not Music City Related, but very cool.
