After a really long haul (about 34 hours in transit) we
arrived at the Peabody Hotel last night, ate room service and crashed into bed.
Up this morning at the reasonable hour of 8.30 am for a leisurely breakfast - omelettes, coffee and juice. We checked out
at 10 and got a cab to the storage yard. The RV was waiting for us, a bit dusty,
but in good shape. We had her looked over by Town & Country RV a day or two
ago, so she was ready to go, batteries charged.
Steve got the outside ready and Ros checked over the inside.
We were missing both the GPS devices, and with no cell phone yet we had no navigation.
We spent an hour or so turning the van inside out until we decided they were actually
missing, not just put somewhere odd. The kind people at the storage yard desk
called us a cab, and we followed him to a Walmart Super Store where we were able
to get a new Garmin and stock up on groceries. Ros even got a pot plant for the
kitchen bench to brighten the place up and give us mint sprigs for drinks. Then
we headed to Graceland to check in to the RV park and get settled.
It took us most of the day to get all that done, unpacked, and
the van cleaned. Tomorrow we have to get a sim card for the phone and look into
WiFi hotspot devices. We’ve still got to decide where we go from here – we are planning
on Tennessee, Kentucky and maybe some other states if we get time.
