Welcome to our blog!

Next year, to celebrate being 30, Katy and Josie will be travelling across Tennessee and beyond. We've been friends for nearly 15 years and have travelled around California and Nevada together, where we had such a brilliant time we've been planning to do it again for years. This time we're going to see Dollywood and Graceland where last time it was Elvis lookalikes, and Tom Jones who were the big draw!

We're also swapping the Greyhound bus for a hire car, and doing a proper American road trip all over the deep south. As the planning for trips like this is always half the fun, we thought we'd include our friends and families on that bit as well as posting as we go along on our trip as well. We hope to post loads of photos and stories so we can really make this an adventure to remember. You'd think we were going for three months, but it's actually more like three weeks - that's a long time on the road!
