After going to the Pink Palace Museum, we went downtown to eat lunch at Silky O’Sullivan’s on Beale Street. From there, we headed to the Mud Island River Park on the Mississippi River. Amazingly, this was the first time we had gone there in the five years we’ve lived in Memphis. We’ve tried a couple of times, but it was always closed during the times that we went.

The park has a full scaled down replica of the Mississippi River. It’s about a half a mile long and the kids had fun wading through it as we walked down to the end. At the end of the river, they had paddleboats that the kids and I went on. Tamara poked fun of me afterwards because my side of the boat was nearly all in the water, while the kids’ side was almost completely out of the water.
