We went to Gatlinburg, Tennessee with the whole gang aka ( hubby and our daughter) last Saurday June 25,2011. Well there's nothing going on we want to see the place. Having an itchy feet sometime is hard to stay at home. So we packed our things and drove going to Gatlinburg for almost 3.5 hours.Our first stop is in Welcome Center at Pigeon. The welcome center at Pigeon is really nice and the road heading to Pigeon is under construction because they are adding some lanes.

Hubby told me we will just play by the air, but he really want to go to OLE SMOKY TENNESSEE MOONSHINE, which was featured in Travel channel thats what we know this distillery. We are not familiar the place so we stop in the Welcome center at Pigeon and we saw a lot of brochure. We got one of the brochure we want to visit and hubby saw the Inn at Christmas Place and the place is beautiful. Its looks like a castle and very attractive.

Hubby immediately look in the GPS and we found it and we went the Inn at Christmas Place.I stayed at the car and hubby went inside to checked how much per night. Hubby came back and told me it's his treat to us ( me and our daughter) to stayed in christmas Place.Actually the place is amazing, once you are there you don't like to leave the place.

Inn at Christmas Place is really captivating from the hotel architecture and decorations you will feel immediately the season of christmas joy and happiness.Christmas decorations are everywhere from the entrance,the lobby, at the bathroom, christmas pillows atop our bed.

The best in Inn at Christmas Place is you fell christmas every day if you stayed there. Complimentary breakfast is included and wi-fi. They have some activities for kids in the evening and morning.

I took some photos for the Inn at Christmas Place.

The landscaping you can see at Inn at Christmas Place.

Little "m" had a great time running around in the first floor in Inn at Christmas Place.

Storytelling at the Inn at Christmas place around 8:00-8:30 in the evening.

That's right every ten minutes the World of Coca-Cola tour starts. Guess how many people will be joining the tour? It's 200 people during our tour. I don't know if we stayed for 2 or 3 hours in tour I forget. Don't get me wrong the World Coca- cola tour is very smooth and manage properly. They make sure that everyone is safe especially who had a children or infants. They announced to starts the tour all stroller will go first and family that has a kids, isn' t that nice right?

The tour starts in the lobby and end in the Coca-cola store. The best part I like is the "Taste it" yeah! you can taste all the 60 beverages around the world. Since Coca-cola is celebrating 125 years we had a complementary bottle of Coca-cola that has 125 years marked.
