It's time to start the weekend in Gatlinburg. What are you doing first?

I'm changing my mind.🤔

At first, I wasn't sure what to think of the new twigloo at Anakeesta, but I really like it NOW.😊

I think it only needs a sign on it to identify with the park, but guests will still flock to this area for pics, and some will mark the spot to pop the ultimate question.❤️
