Exploring Louisville

Today, Ian and I went to the Big Four Bridge, which crosses the Ohio river between Kentucky and Indiana. It was a pretty sweet little walk. The drive to the Kentucky side was pretty impossible because of the construction, so after getting to the Indiana side, we finally got to walk across...




After that, we drove to Historic Louisville. It wasn't super impressive architecture, so we did a drive by on the way to Churchill Downs. We got there 8 minutes after a tour started and another wasn't set until an hour later so we got lunch before heading back.

The museum had a massive room with a 360 set of screens, which they played a fifteen minute video on. It was amazing. The tour was cool, we got to see part of the grounds and track as well as the grave sights of some of the horses. It was pretty sweet tour.




After the tour, we checked out the rest of the museum and the gift shop. They had a great selection of expensive screwy hats...



After that, we spent a few minutes in our hotel room before heading out to meet up with Ian's instructor, Brent. We had dinner and Ian had his first test and welcome speech, but tomorrow is looking busier. I also saw Chef Becky, my former culinary instructor, so that was fun. We'll probably get a chance to hang out later this week.
