Day 65 St Louis-Memphis, USA

Friday 12th August 2005

sunny 36 °C

I spent most of the day driving before finally arriving in Memphis late afternoon.We headed down to Beale Street where all the blues bars and clubs are and had a meal before sitting outside the restaurant listening to a blues band for a couple of hours.
BB King has a bar here and occassionally he shows up to put on a performance although the price they charge is pretty expensive.
What alot of the clubs do here is charge you $10 and you get a wristband which then gives you access to about 12 clubs that have live music playing.The heat here at the moment is pretty unbearable though and its making it feel really uncomfortable spending to much time out in it.Even late at night its around 28 degrees but its the humidity thats the killer.
