Driving Crosscountry 2020 : Inside Elvis's Graceland

"There's a pretty little thing / Waiting for the king / Down in the Jungle room / When I was walking in memphis."
Entryway.
Surreal mirrored staircase.
The media room. SIX TVs! At the time, that would have been unheard of!
Pool room.
" Now security they did not see him / They just huddled around his tomb…""
A pic that needs no explanation. 
 Everything about this house was absolutely surreal. The traditional look of the outside versus the the flamboyant inside where every room was different with a different theme. There is an air of sadness in the house. Elvis did die here, of course. And the whole thing felt like he was just a poor guy who didn't know what to do with all of his money.
