Wednesday April 9

Set off this sunny morning in the Kentucky countryside. First stop was the Keeneland race track (outskirts of Lexington), where we could wander around the paddocks and see the horses, and watch them having their morning exercise around the track. Then we had a scenic drive through the countryside, lots of horse farms.

Next we drove a couple of hours to Dayton, Ohio where there is a lot of aviation history. We went to the Wright brothers visitor centre and watched a half hour film about their flight attempts. They had a printing shop and a bicycle shop before they attempted to fly. Seems like they were very curious and clever guys. 

We moved on and stopped for the night at Bowling Green, Ohio.
