The Peabody Hotel in downtown Memphis has a tradition with the march of the ducks. For over 80 years they have been keeping ducks on the roof of the hotel in the "Duck Palace" and each day at 11:00 am they ride down the elevator to the lobby of the hotel and walk across the red carpet and up the steps to the fountain. They then stay there until 5:00pm where they then head back up to the roof. We thought it would be a fun time of year to go check out the ducks since the hotel would be decorated for Christmas time.
We got their early enough so that we could walk around the hotel and check out all of the decorations. They had a huge 30 + foot tall Christmas tree that was beautifully decorated. We then watched the ducks. I was surprised that Brooklyn didn't try to crawl after ducks. She did like to stand at the fountain and watch them swim around.
We then headed up to the rooftop to check out the Duck Palace. Their was a great view of the city and the river. It was a great little family outing and I'm sure that we will go see the duckies again when Brooklyn is a little older.
That looks like so much fun! you have such a cute family.
