Peabody Hotel Take 2

After seeing the ducks and how cool they had the hotel decorated I wanted Andrew to see and our only chance was Saturday. We left our ward party and headed downtown. We got there just in time and there was about 10 times more people than there was Tuesday. We still got a good seat though. The kids were really excited to see the ducks again!

 

 

They had an honorary duck master that day, I

don't remember her name but it was her 85th Birthday. They gave her a Peabody Duck, rubber duck and a duck cane like what the duck master

walks around with and a certificate. It was really cute to see, she went with him to get the ducks. The ducks came off the elevator and just as I was about to get a picture one duck freaked out and spread its wings and whacked Easton in the face! It was quite hilarious and I thought for sure he would freak out but he just kind of brushed it off and laughed! The duck master didn't notice what the duck had done either!

We then went and wandered around on the Mezzanine Level. We hadn't gone there on Tuesday. It was pretty to look down and see the lobby.



We went to the Memorabilia room and saw all the cool stuff they had!

I loved this menu they had in there from probably 60 or so years ago, Filet Mignon was $5!

One of the banquet halls, they were setting up for lots of parties for later that night!

We found the phone booth, the phone actually worked, there was a dial tone at least!

We went and saw the ducks in the fountain before we left since it wasn't as crowded by then. Sadly it was raining off and on that day so we couldn't show Andrew the roof!

Across the street from the Peabody is Kooky Canucks. They were featured on Man Vs. Food for their 7 lb burger. I had only been once with a some friends and Andrew hadn't been at all so we decided to grab some lunch. It was really good. We shared a burger and it was just right! It was such a fun day and a perfect way to spend our final Saturday living in Memphis!
