Mississippi and Gracelands, Memphis, Tennessee

Have been bouncing off the freeways so as to get a real taste of how these states differ.








Gracelands – home of the King. Its tacky with everything aimed at getting you into a shop. The house is fascinating and a real nostalgia trip for everything 70s and kitsch. The man was extraordinary and talented. But the place feels as though its had it heyday. But well worth the pilgrimage.


















Visited Sun studios where Elvis cut his first disc.




Memphis is pretty tired and rundown.




Headed off to Arkansas.
