Day 3

We were up early again and on the move. Our first stop was Churchill Downs... Home of the Kentucky Derby.

This is the final resting place of the 2006 Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro.

We went through the museum, and then out to the track where the races happen.

The current triple crown winner American Pharaoh.

My favorite jockeys...

and the hats... OH MY!!!!  

Trying to horse race

And then the grounds... such beauty

Luckily the day we visited, some horse were practicing.  We also caught two of them racing.  Just the sound of those two was amazing.  I can just imagine how it sounds when 20 horses are racing.

The guide told us lots of history about the Kentucky Derby.  It makes us want to go there during the Derby.

So glad we decided to tour the race track.  If you are ever in the area, it's a must see!! 

Then we were off to our next adventure.  First stop was lunch in Cincinnati.  We tried a local joint called Skyline Chili.  It has a slightly different taste than Texas chili,

 There is a hot dog with chili under all that cheese.

We decided to camp for the night and stayed in an amazing KOA campground.  The weather was beautiful for camping.  Once we were set up, we headed over to the next town for a fireworks show.

We will be up early in the morning and off to our next adventure...
