Smoky Mountains - Wednesday, April 8, 2009

Wednesday, April 8, 2009 | |


Today was a big day! We drove two hours to Asheville, NC to visit the Biltmore Estate. The 250 room house is 175,000 square feet. It was built by a Vanderbilt in 1895. We toured the house and saw over 50 rooms on 5 different floors. We saw the large dining room and the impressive library as well as many bedrooms, the bowling alley and the indoor pool.

Then we walked through the garden area. The tulips were really pretty! We drove to the winery and got to try close to 10 different wines. On the trip back to the cabin we took a more scenic road and saw some good views of the Smoky Mountains. We relaxed for a while and then went to the Smoky Mountain Brewery for dinner. Now we're back at the cabin enjoying another relaxing evening.
