Day 5 - 7 Top deck tour Memphis to New Orleans

Day 5 Topdeck - On to Memphis : The home of The Blues, giving us the famous Sun Studio with Elvis, Jonnie Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and the location of Martin Luther King's assassination.  First stop Graceland.




So much to see at Graceland ... Too many photo's to show here.  In the evening we went to a great restaurant called Kinky Kanook, famous for its huge burger which defeated Man v Food guy, it was just too big for him, the owner showed us the size of the burger buns for the monster meal ...


Luckily we just had a regular meal, no food competitions for us !

Day 6 Memphis - we went to the Sun studios to check out where Elvis recorded his first record, then we went on to the civil rights museum where the Motel where Martin Luther King Jnr was shot.





The amazing rack of ribs at City Blues Cafe Memphis.

Day 7 Memphis to New Orleans - On the way we went on a swamp tour around the outskirts of New Orleans, where we saw some Alligators close up.
