Vacation Day #12

We started our day with plans. Since Dollywood isn't open today. (They close on Tuesdays and Thursdays this time of year.) We planned to eat breakfast and go over to Pigeon Forge to do some shopping.

We ate a delicious breakfast at our favorite pancake house. It's getting cute because Jeremiah is a celebrity now there and they all come over to say Good morning to him. It's a Hi Honey. Here Ya go sweetie. Kind of place. When we got ready to head over to Pigeon Forge mom started to not feel well. Her diabetes isn't appreciating all the activity and not just walking but hard up hill mountain walking. So she decided to rest instead of walking more today and irritating it even more since we are going back to Dolllywood the next two days.

So Jeremiah and me snuck out so mom could rest. Jeremiah really likes this restaurant chain called Johnny Rockets. It's like a 50's diner. They play oldies on the radio and sometimes the waitresses dance. We've been to several different ones across the US. Jeremiah even has a Johnny Rocket t-shirt. We saw there was one in town while on the trolleys...

They make cute faces and other things in the ketchup dish. Too cute to put your french fries in. The waitress flirted with Jeremiah and I mean really sweet hey cutie type of flirting. It was fun to watch and yet I can't believe he is old enough to be flirted with. Jeremiah and me got to talking I'm pretty sure this is the first time we've ate at a restaurant just the two of us. We had a really nice time. We stopped and did some shopping on the way back to our hotel. Mom is feeling a lot better since she rested so hopefully we can have a great day tomorrow back at Dollywood.
