Vacation Friday

Friday started out with some boutique and antique shopping.

I found a couple of pretty horse head hooks and a riding shirt.

We got some Chinese food and then headed out to drive on some of the small historic roads.

In the evening we went to Churchill Downs to see some racing! I wasn't sure that we would be able to make it to Churchill for a race but our timing was perfect and last night was the first live racing of the season.

Today is the first day of Pony Dressage!!

Vacation Thursday

Yesterday was my first time flying. Despite what people were saying I thought it was not so different than driving. I don't tend to be nervous about that type of thing and it was just as uneventful as I thought it would be. Mostly I was really happy to not have taken 14 hours to drive here like I normally would have done with my family.

We flew into Lousiville so the first thing we did, of course, was visit the Kentucky Derby Museum at Churchill Downs.

It was beautiful and we are going back to see a race there tonight!

The landscape is just so incredibly beauitful. I've seen it in pictures but seeing it in real life is just so different.

Best Sangria I've ever had :)
