Titanic and celebrity car museums and Dolly Parton stampede

Thursday was a rainy day so we chose some indoor activities. First we went to a museum dedicated to the Titanic. This was very interesting as they had all kinds of facts about anything you could want to know about the Titanic including the names of everyone on board, their fate, and even a history on many of the passengers. They also had many original artifacts from the ship and it’s passengers. Unfortunately, they don’t allow any picture taking at all so I have no pictures from there.

After that we went to a quirky car museum featuring all kinds of famous original and replica vehicles from tv shows, movies, and celebrity owned. We had our doubt about this museum especially pulling up to it as it looked kind of lame from the outside but it really ended up being alot of fun. It’s amazing the vehicles the owner has been able to pick up. They also sell almost anything in the museum and because of that their inventory changes often enough that you could go a couple times a year and see new vehicles.

We finished the day with the Dolly Parton stampede. Yeehaw. Basically a dinner show where people get excited about eating a whole mini chicken and potatoes with their hands and watch a hokey western show with horses, cows, buffalo, cowboys and cowgirls perform. Not quite my thing but Jamie enjoyed it. Oh, and this is when we discovered that Branson doesn’t allow alcohol at any of their shows. Noooooo!
