Have you ever been to Dollywood or the GSMNP??? On weekends, this area can be HORRIBLE with the mass of people. Cars can be backed up for miles trying to get in to Dollywood, or to go thru Pigeon Forge to get to Gatlinburg and the park entrance. The weekdays are not as bad.
One of my favorite places to visit is Cade's Cove, a loop drive in the park. It is ten miles long, I believe, but so beautiful. On weekends, unless you get there really early, the line of cars waiting to get in to the Cade's Cove entrance can stretch for miles down the road. Again, it's awful. Sometimes, I'll park my car in one of the side parking areas, before the entrance, and then run the loop. You see so much more that way. One time, my family dropped me off so I could run, and they drove the loop. They were stuck in traffic so I beat them around the ten mile loop. I saw three bears while running and they did not see any (being stuck in traffic)
He Loves Disney, he will be fine at Dollywood
