Day 49 & 50 - Louisville, KY

We got up early and headed into town to visit the Louisville Slugger Factory and Museum and the Muhammad Ali Center.  Both were great to visit.  The center was especially well planned and informative.  We spent a couple of hours viewing the five floors, dozens of videos, and stunning exhibits on race and boxing.





Then it was baseball time with a tour of the factory and museum.  We even got a couple of miniature bats.  They will make great fish bonkers upon our return to civilization in many years.  Now where to start storing souvenirs we promised each other we would not purchase of collect!




The next day we spent time in the historical neighborhoods and toured a magnificant h ome followed by a nice walk through the myriad of historic homes.



This afternoon we toured the Louisville Mega Cavern.  This limestone mine is massive, was purchased in 1996 by the current owenr and converted into a wonderful activity center.  We decided to to the zip lines in the dark.  Six lines and two suspension bridges...none for the faint of heart.  What an exhillirating day.
