Stops in Kentucky and Ohio

Greetings,
From Missouri we drove a long way to Mammoth Caves National Park in Kentucky. I had to get out along the way to smell the Kentucky grass.We were really lucky and got 1 of the only 2 full hook-up sites in the  park campground. 

Mammoth Caves has more than 367 miles of caves and passageways and ranks as the longest known cave in the world. In the old days people used to take a train to get here.

Mom and Dad took a ranger led tour through the caves. Mom said it was an adventure she could have done without - they descended deep into the caves and the passageway got very very narrow and low, she even had to get down and crawl at one point. It was too dark to take any pictures,

After a few days in the park we went to Bardstown, Ky - the bourbon capitol of the world.  On the way we stopped at Lincoln's birthplace


and then got to Bardstown in time for mom and dad to take a tour of one of the local bourbon distillery's.



I had to stay in the car.

Lots of beautiful scenery in Kentucky - we are going to have to come back.











Our next stop was to visit Aunt Joanne and Uncle Bob who live just outside of Cincinnati. We parked our RV in front of their house.

I was on my best behavior so I was able to be in their house for the entire visit. We had a great time together.

 On to Gettysburg!
Adios, Yuki
