Memphis - day 2

Today we visited Graceland in the morning and were lucky enough to get there really early to beat the crowds. A huge property with some interesting history of Elvis Presley's life. We wandered through his house and used iPads to watch and listen to his history and stories about his family. 

After some lunch we found Sun Studios. It was packed with people and we would have had to wait over an hour to get on a tour. We had a look around and headed back to downtown. I have always been really interested in two very famous men, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King jnr. We found the Lorraine Hotel where he was killed in 1968. It's now the National Civil Rights Museum. I was really impressed with the place and learnt heaps. I also felt really sad there too about how people have been treated and this still happens here in many ways. 

Tomorrow we head to Dallas.
