Well, no trip to Chattanooga is complete without a trip to the train station, and the iconic Choo Choo made famous in 1941 by Glen Miller. "Pardon me, boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?"
"Track 29!"
"Boy, you can give me a shine." Is the start of the song that put this city on the map.
Last night Lars & Erja, Susan and I went for a dinner, and western singing at a local tavern. It was a great way to end our stay in town. Ambica heads upriver this morning to an anchorage for a few days of R&R. They have friends flying in from Sweden for 10 days of adventure cruising the Tennessee River. With a tear in our eyes we parted this morning heading downstream. I am pretty sure we will have future adventures together!
Tonight we are anchored behind an island, all alone on an incredibly scenic area. After a week of being alongside a dock, we are happy to be swinging on our anchor again. So much more peaceful.
The picture today is of the famous train. Check out the photo gallery for some more pictures, including the incredible sunset tonight.
