Aquarium Restaurant

Assalaamu Alaykum world.  This blog post is of when my mother, grandmother, Alexus and myself went to Nashville, TN July 19th 2015.  It is of an aquarium restaurant which was really nice but you have to make reservations ahead of time.     I think Cinn would like it, if he came here to the USA and we decided to go to Nashville for the weekend.     We stayed at the Quality Inn and Suites on Elm Hill Parkway.


























The next four pictures are of our journey back to OH.   It was at Maghreb and I like to think the pictures I took from the backseat of the car were nice.

Tennessee State Museum

Assalaamu Alaykum world.  My mother, my grandmother, my teenage sister and I went to Nashville July 18th to July 20th 2015.  We went to the Tennessee State Museum after attending the Tennessee State War Memorial on July 18, 2015.     This post is about the Tennessee State Museum which was nice.  It was divided into different time periods throughout USA history.

The below picture is an oil painting of General George H. Thomas and below that is the sign next to the painting talking briefly about him.










This has both a mummy and a mummified cat in it.
The mummy is 3,600 years old and brought to TN in 1860.

The above picture I had to darken to eliminate the glare from the sunlight but this is what the sign says.

AMERICAN MASTODON
(Mammut americanum)
The American Mastodon was commonly found in the forests of North America during the Middle to Late Ice Age and became extinct about 10,000 years ago.  Usually it attained a height of about ten feet at the shoulders, had a long massive body with short, stocky legs and fed on plant life.   The mastodon had a flatter head, heavier and larger tusks and longer hair than the modern elephant, which it resembles.
