two of us are planning a trip at the end of April. We will spend April 24th in Cuba Missouri, then down to Memphis for 1 to 2 days. What would be the MUST SEE areas here? Also going next to Nashville, same thing here for 2 days. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Is the American Pickers worth seeing down there?
for Cuba to Memphis, you might want to go through Sikeston, MO for Lambert's Throwed Rolls, The Glenn Restaurant between Charleston and East Prairie, MO, Boomland and Azalea Festival (April 20-23), Charleston, MO, and Cairo, IL and visit the Civil War Museum but they are managed by volunteers so limited hours.
Dixie Gun Works and Museum (black powder) in Union City, TN
Also Dorena Hickman Ferry over the Mississippi River in SE MIssouri.
For Memphis-Bass Pro in the Pyramid, Carter Young district for shopping, Peabody Hotel (ducks), Rondevous Restaurant, Beale Street entertainment district.
For Nashville-Prince's for Hot Chicken, Ryman Auditorium, Gaylord Opryland Resort, Puckett's in downtown Nashville, downtown entertainment district, Loveless Cafe, Natchez Trace, Vanderbilt University campus, and the Catbird Seat Restaurant if you want to spend $400.
American Pickers in Nashvillle is primarily souvenirs and t shirts, but they are in an interesting location.
