Tennessee Trip - Day 5

Breakfast at the hotel. Spent most of the day at the Chattanooga Creative Discovery Museum - kids had a great time. Ate a very light lunch in the museum (1400L). Finished our fun there around [1600L) and then explored the city for a while in the late afternoon. Bought souvenirs at the Carousel Christmas Shoppe (1730L). Later, went to the big event of the day: a minor league baseball game! The Chattanooga Lookouts were playing an evening game and we arrived around 0645L after a short walk from our hotel (another co-worker of mine, Ray, had recommended taking in the game while we were in town). We bought team shirts and foam "We're Number One" fingers and cheered for the team. They even hit a homerun - and it brought out the Chattanooga Choo-Choo! At the end of the game, there was a huge fireworks show - and we watched if from the grass on the outfield. Everyone was tired afterwards, but it was a great night! Luckily, our hotel was within walking distance...
