I Wanna Be Sedated Research Paper
The Ramones have this fantastic song "I Wanna Be Sedated" that most moms of teens can relate to.
Twenty, twenty, twenty four hours to go
I wanna be sedated.
Nothing to do, no where to go
I wanna be sedated
You would think just by the idea of traveling with a 15 year old, I would be screaming "I wanna be sedated" from the mountain tops but lucky for us, the kiddo and I had a fantastic trip to Memphis that was specifically customized for teen travel.
Memphis is about a five hour drive from Shreveport up I-49 N to I-30 E through Little Rock to I-40 into the city. It is best known for Beale St, the National Civil Rights Museum, and of course Graceland. Since this was our first time in the city, we decided to do what Memphis is known for and some …show more content…
extras. After it was all said and done, the kiddo proclaimed that he had a great time. If you are a parent of a teen, you know how profound his statement was. Our trip was a success!
So what did we do?
Here's my guide on navigating Memphis with a teenager:
WHERE TO STAY:
The Guesthouse at Graceland
3600 Elvis Presley Blvd
Memphis, TN
800-238-2000
The Guest House at Graceland is a 450 room full service luxury hotel located a few steps from Graceland.
I mean would Elvis settle for anything less than luxury? This property is absolutely gorgeous! You see the property before you even get to it because it is that expansive. It houses a piano bar, full-service restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating, sports themed restaurant, 464-seat theatre and more. In addition to the "standard" (We're talking Elvis standard here) rooms, the property also features themed VIP suites with design supervised by Priscilla Presley.
Our room was absolutely beautiful and it faced the courtyard and pool area. The kiddo and I both enjoyed our stay although for different reasons. I loved the comfort of the space and he the fact that we could access Netflix from our TV. Because of that, we were able to binge watch Santa Clarita Diet and even watched the Jungle Book. He also checked out the gym and let me know that it was pretty legit. The Guest House at Graceland is definitely where you want to stay with teens in Memphis.
By now you all know that I travel to eat. My perfect trip includes eating, drinking, eating, a little shopping, and more eating. Although this trip was not that, we did find some pretty delicious eats in
Memphis.
