Review of Big Splash Adventure Day 2

We slept great in our room at Big Splash Adventure. Although we heard some noises from rambunctious children above us, this all stopped at around 8pm and we slept well.  We awoke and made some in-room coffee and enjoyed some morning cartoons.  We took it slow because the breakfast did not begin until 8am.  My daughter was up at 6:30am, […]

Review of Big Splash Adventure Day 1

Note, this post is from 2011 Day 1:  We left Louisville at around 11am and arrived in French Lick at around 12:30.  It took slightly longer than our last trip when we visited French Lick Resort because we had to take a different route due to the closed bridge.  But, it was a nice drive. The drive from Louisville to French […]

Restaurant Review- The Cottage Café

The unsuspecting little yellow house on Main Street in old Middletown is one I had driven by plenty of times. After asking a local shop owner where to head for a good lunch with my family, she told me all about the ‘Cottage Café’ and I was surprised that I hadn’t noticed it before.  Nestled between some wonderful antique shops […]

Review: Thurman Hutchins Park

Always on the lookout for new and different parks in Louisville, we were happy to stumble upon Thurman Hutchins Park on River Road, just east of Zorn Avenue. The park is right across the road from Carrie Gaulbert Cox Park (and the boat launch area) but it has a completely different feel. Our first impression was of beautiful, wide open […]

Review of the Kentucky Derby Museum

I took my daughter and “horsey” lover to The Kentucky Derby Museum.  I will start off by saying that I am completey appalled with myself that in all of the hundreds of things I have written about, it has taken me this long to visit the Kentucky Derby Museum.  This museum is incredible!  It should be on your short list, if not on […]
