Time for a break......

Time for a break..
Having discovered that my time here only encompassed 1 holiday. This was not good news I have had pretty full on weeks with only a single day off thus no time to actually explore this part of the country.
So Easter, which here is only the Friday but true to form we met up at Atterbury , and I now have a memory stick full of information GOOD JOB DONE.
So Saturday and Sunday to explore , now I have a real interest in the National Parks which we have visited before such as Yellowstone ,Grand Canyon, they are great, a bit of research found Mammoth Caves a few hours’ drive from here in Kentucky.
 
Looking through the brochure of tours Grand Tour seemed fun.
 
And it was,
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Only here would you get a restaurant 35 feet underground, with a toilet as well!!!!!!!!
                                                                                
 
The guide described it as a 4 mile walk through the rock and it was pretty much but it was spectacular. 
                                                                            

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
So to Sunday and a leisurely drive back via Santa Claus, yes there is a village dedicated to Santa , with a variety of appropriately named areas, unfortunately for me Santa appeared to celebrate Easter so it was all closed ,but worth the  visit.
