TV room
I love the monkey!
Bar
The bar just off of the TV room.
Other side
I don't know how they make a turkey in there when they have Thanksgiving. Maybe they bring it in.
Kitchen
Lots of modern features in here for the time. Elvis paid thousands for one of the first microwaves (middle of the picture). You can see the security monitors so he could see what was going on outside the house. The door at the back of the kitchen leads to a secret bedroom where his Aunt stayed for years, even after they started giving tours of Graceland.
Dining room
The family still celebrates Thanksgiving here every year.
Nope
You can't go upstairs. Our tour guide said Elvis didn't even let people go upstairs unless they were super close friends. He felt that was the only place he had his privacy so, no one was allowed upstairs unless they were invited. Not even the staff at Graceland can go upstairs without permission from the family.
Blonde Elvis
His natural hair color.
Pink clothes
You can see the pink theme in her clothes as well.
Gladys' bathroom
They told us this bathroom, right off of the purple bedroom, was specifically decorated for Gladys. The wallpaper is a poodle playing with a ball. She loved pink!
Gladys' bathroom room
Elvis' Mom's room. It could have been his prent's room but the tour guide told us it was his Mom's room. Also, you'll see the bathroom was done specifically for his Mom and only his Mom's clothes are in the closet. That could be for show but, I'm unsure, it could be just for tour purposes.
Painting
The painting was Elvis' last Christmas present from his father. Below is a picture of his parents, Gladys and Vernon.
Living room
They told us that during the holidays everything in these rooms would change. They woud take out the sofas and take down the curtains and replace them with red versions.
Panoramic
The whole house.
Elvis' room
His room are the two windows on the top right.
Stained glass
After Elvis bought the house he made a lot of changes to suit his family's needs, including this stained glass transom.

Crowded
You can see the other tour waiting to get in to the house, there were so many tours. We were there a week before the 40th anniversary of his death. 80,000 people showed up the anniversary week!

Graceland!
They took us in a shuttle across the street to Graceland. We watched a short movie that encompassed Elvis' career and then we started walking around to the front of the house.
