 we love our horses! by Krumlovgirl Lexington has an airport, the Bluegrass Airport. There aren't that many non-stop flights, but the prices aren't bad. I find them a little cheaper than Cincinatti. When I fly international I usually do Delta and connect either in Cincinatti (which is about a 25 minute flight) or Atlanta. The website usually has some good deals posted on it. Leave a Comment

Bluegrass Airport is in Lexington. You can also fly into either Louisville (I64) or Cincinnati (I75). Man-o-war Boulevard and New Circle Road are the two main roads in Lexington. Both basically circle the city. There is public transport in the shape of Lextran buses but, although they are working on improvements, this is not really an option for most things.

Its easy to drive around Lexington (except for the inept drivers). The city is circled by, appropriately named, New Circle Rd. Major Roads go out from the center like spokes in a wheel. Alot of these roads such as Richmond Rd, Nicholasville Rd, Winchester Rd, Versailles Rd, and Georgetown Rd actually go to the cities they are named after. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Somebody forgot to tell this little thoroughfare that Lexington is a small town. This road is absolute chaos! For one thing, its seven lanes wide, and depending on the time of day different lanes head in different directions. In order to figure out if you're heading the right direction or not be sure to look for the x's above the road (like a stoplight). If you're in lane with a red 'x'- MOVE! Another problem is the traffic with the road. If you're on it during rush hour you might as well pull over and find somewhere to sit because thats what you'll be doing on the road.

 Mirror Horse, part of Horse Mania by Krumlovgirl With its tranquil setting and lovely stone fences and buildings, this national historic landmark is one of the most beautiful racetracks in the world. Live Thoroughbred racing takes place April and October. No racing on Mondays or Tuesdays. My ex boyfriend and I were here with about 300 others to pose as extras in the movie "Seabiscuit." They used Keeneland to act as one of the tracks in Maryland because since it hasn't changed much it looks historical. Tour Time:Varies Group Rate:Yes (for races); grounds tours are free Hours: Open year-round. During race meets, first post time is 1:15 p.m. Grounds are open for visitation from 6:00 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily Leave a Comment

by Krumlovgirl The Kentucky Horse Park is a working horse farm with 1,200 acres surrounded by 30 miles of white fencing. It features two museums, twin theaters and nearly 50 different breeds of horses. You can see all sorts of horse-related activities, from horse shows and competitions to plowing. You can also take rides, including ponies for the little ones, and horse and buggy rides. You really need to check out their website for an updated schedule because there is always something going on. During Christmas they have a whole Christmas light extravaganza that’s a pretty big deal around here. So big, in fact, that the local radio stations give out tickets as “prizes.” OPEN March 15 - October 31: Open 7 days a week, 9 am - 5 pm November 1 - March 14: Open Wednesday -Sunday, 9 am - 5 pm CLOSED Monday and Tuesday, November 1 - March 15 Thanksgiving Eve & Day, Christmas Eve & Day, New Year’s Eve & Day Leave a Comment
