Pigeon Forge traffic between Dec. 27 and Jan.3
Been there numerous times, but never during this time of the year. What is the traffic like? Are the Christmas shows any good?

RE: Thanksgiving in Branson
It may be a good day to head over to College of the Ozarks. The museum is worth seeing and cheap. The food is great. We enjoy looking at the grounds and talking to the students.

RE: river plantation cg in tn
We stayed there two years ago and didn't care for it because there was a lot of truck noise very early in the morning that kept waking us up. We prefer Clauboughs. We have stayed there at least 12 times. We also prefer that location. It is close to Krogers, library ( to check our emails)and several restaurants are close and you don't have to get out in all the traffic. Our favorite thing to do is the Roaring Fork Motor Drive, also, take some chairs to top of mountain and sit and enjoy the view. We like to go to the shows. If you want info about any of them let me know, we have been to most of them.Do a search and you will find all kinds of info. This location has been discussed many, many times.

RE: Smoky Mountains in April-May 2010
Shouldn't have any trouble. People take much bigger rigs to the area.May be a little slow going up some of the hills, but other than that have fun. If you need more info, just let me know.

RE: Claustrophobia in inside cabins on a cruise to Alaska
Bigred, do you know if you can request a cabin right by a stairs or elevator when you take a cruise? I am really having trouble dealing with this but don't want to hold my husband back on a trip and he won't go without me. That is why rving has been the answer to our problems. But now, if we want to venture out farther, we are going to have to do some flying and cruising. I am trying to picture the situation and then telling myself I can handle it. Nobody, with claustrophobia has really responded much so I don't know what to do. Don't want to spend thousands of dollars and be crazy. If that is the case, we will just drive west for a different type of trip.

RE: Claustrophobia in inside cabins on a cruise to Alaska
Ok, maybe I need to be more specific- I am not trying to decide between an inside cabin and balcony. I am trying to decide if I can even go. I don't get bothered by small places in our RV because I know I have complete control to walk out when ever I want to. I can not go in any caves any more because of having people walking behind me and not be allowed to leave if I want to. I have trouble flying because I start to panic that I want to get off the plane. How long would it take me to leave an inside room and get out to a lighted area up on the deck if I start to have a panic. Could I sleep on the deck if I had to? It is going down the stairs (elevators) walking in the hallways that are concerning me at this point. I don't plan on spending any time in a room except to sleep (maybe) and shower. Will it be too cold in June or July to be out on a deck all the time.

RE: Smoky Mountains in April-May 2010
We go each year the last week of March during Spring break. Never had snow when we were there. You will need jackets but we enjoy this time of year if you want to do any hiking.May would be my first choice. Not as crowded because kids aren't out of school yet and trees have leaves. Try to go during the middle of week. Weekends have a lot of traffic.

Claustrophobia in inside cabins on a cruise to Alaska
If you have trouble with claustrophobia and have been on a cruise, can you tell me how you handled it. Presently, we are only considering an inside room because it is so much cheaper. Did you feel the hallways were very narrow? What about when you were inside your room.

RE: Mid March near Chicago
Go in the summer and stay at the Indiana Dunes and take the train in. Works out very good and you can see the dunes also.

RE: Disney World RV Parks
We stayed at Tropical Palms for a week. We found it to be close to Disney and the park was fine. Nothing fancy but definitely would stay there again.

Where to go in Alaska
We would like to see Alaska. It would be pretty far for us to drive. Thought about a cruise. Never been on one, don't know what is the best ship to take or what ports to visit. Checked out websites and feel overwhelmed with information. Would have to go between mid June to end of July. Maybe 10 days or so. Could anyone give us advice on what ship is best to take, and what ports are best to visit. What city is best to fly into. What would the weather be like at this time of year? Someone told us we could go for about $2000. for two people without airfair. Does that sound about right? Any help would be appreciated. We need "Cruising for Dummies".

RE: rv resort, Nashville, Tn
If you stay at Two Rivers be sure to ask to be as far away as possible from the bus repair area next door. Other wise you will hear peeping of backing up buses all day and late into the night. For that reason we have started staying at Jellystone. Cost a little more but we like being away from the beeping. It drove us nuts the last two times we were there. If you go to the opry, check at the cg, they may have buy one get one free tickets. We sat in the balcony and they were great tickets. Also, you may want to drop by John A's bar right up the street. Good food and great music on the weekend. No cover charge. They often have up and coming stars sing or play music. WE have been there 10 or so times and had fun every time we have been there.

Where to stay by Mt. Rushmore
What is the best cg to stay at if visiting Mt. Rushmore. Are the other things to see within an hour driving time from Mt. Rushmore or will we need to change locations. We have a couple weeks and would be willing to change locations after seeing everything in that area if there are other things to see within a couple hours drive.

Is Graceland worth the trip?
We have been considering going to Graceland to see what it is all about. Some people we have met said there is plenty to do in the area and we would really enjoy it, others tell us it is "cheesey". What is the opinion of those who have been there? We are baby boomers, but not over the top fans of Elvis, enjoy his music and some of his movies but don't worship the ground he walked on.

RE: Two Rivers Campground in Nashville question?
We stayed there twice and didn't have any electrical problems last
year. Our complaint about the cg is the noise that comes from the bus garage next door. ( I am sure they can't do anything about this problem) Everytime a bus backs in the buses give out a beeping noise. This goes on all day and to about 12 or 1 at night! It just about drove us nuts. When we mentioned it to the front desk they said that the next time we come down to ask for the sites in the back area. So last week we called and asked for one of those sites. We were told that those are for the monthly rentals and we couldn't have any of those sites so we decided to try the Jellystone. While it may cost a few dollars more, we were very happy there. They got us half price tickets to the Opry, and gave us four free tickets to dinner and a show at the Nashville Palace. They gave us discount coupons to John A's (our favorite bar to visit) so all in all, I think we got a bargain and the people working at the front desk couldn't have been any nicer. The bathrooms were immaculate and sites were well-mantained. They had great country music entertainment on Saturday night at the picnic area. There were some nice activities for kids to do (we didn't have any kids with us) but I think kids would have enjoyed them. And no beep beep beep all day and night!
