As a young boy i became an Elvis fan.When i was 16 I traveled 2 hours to Ohio to see him in concert. I always wanted to go to Graceland but never came up with the money.
Well in July of 2008, at the age of 55, my dream came true. I packed up my daughter, son, and mom and we left for Graceland. My oldest daughter and her boyfriend from Florida met us there. As I pulled into the Heartbreak Hotel they were playing Elvis music. We were so excited. Heartbreak Hotel was great--the heart-shaped pool,and the playing of Elvis movies.
The next moring it was off to Graceland.What a great experience, Graceland tour was very well put together. All the little shops around Graceland were great. Anyone who loves Elvis, I highly recommend visiting Graceland. I will definitely be back.
