Formerly my hometown (well, I guess it still is) as I was born in Louisville, Kentucky. Interesting place and went there on vacation to see my family. Had some good visits with them and did a lot of things with them, so not a lot of time for sightseeing with my girlfriend Debbie. However we did get out some, and visited some sights such as the George Rogers Clark Homestead. This cabin is a replica but much like what he lived in.
Very pretty at night is the bridges. You can see the old train bridge in the foreground. It has been turned into a "walking bridge" and you can now walk from Indiana to Kentucky (and back) which is pretty cool. It is really popular and has been for the past few years. Its a fairly new addition to the area.
In the background you can see the Abe Lincoln Bridge. There are four bridges that cross the Ohio River...two free and two toll.
This from the Indiana side of the Ohio River is Louisville. Always a beautiful photo by night and fun to see this location. There are many amazing things to see and do. Churchill Downs is in Louisville and Derby time (which this visit was not) is a remarkable time to see the many things Louisville has to offer. Fall is also wonderful in Louisville and in fact there is hardly a bad time to go there (well, maybe in the dead of winter...but thats another story)
