We had heard about the Peabody Hotel's Ducks and decided to see them for ourselves. The Peabody is a couple blocks north of Beale Street.
We had some trouble finding the entrance, it was in the parking garage. See the duck?
We found ourselves a place to watch. But there is one problem, we can't see the elevator.
Nice ceiling.
Getting close.
Not seeing the elevator was a problem, the ducks were fast and we missed getting a photo or video of them heading for the fountain.

Next we went to Beale Street and toured a bit.
One store had a nice museum in the upstairs. This is one example of the displays.
We had a very nice lunch at Miss Polly's Soul Food Cafe on Beall Street and moved on to the Gibson Guitar Factory a couple blocks away.
This factory makes acoustic electrics and semi-acoustic electrics and no photos were allowed. It was a good tour.
