1. Watch Ducks March Through the Peabody Hotel lobby
Make plans to visit the historic Peabody Hotel, with its elegantly appointed lobby, cocktail bar, shops, restaurants, and...ducks? Every single day at exactly 11 a.m., this adorable team of waterfowl waddles from their hotel rooftop penthouse into the elevator, making their way to the lobby’s marble fountain via red carpet. The Peabody Duckmaster guides these feathered friends on their journey downstairs each morning and back up again at 5 p.m.
