Wow! I knew Louisville was a great city but #1?!? Now I’m blushing.

Louisville is a great city with so much to offer. I never knew that it was the best vacation spot though. Gives me some ideas to think about.

This just out from Livability.com; they reviewed 500 cities and awarded Louisville, KY is a Year-Round Staycation! Sure, if you have deep pockets you might select Honolulu but who has money these days?

Rich history, modern culture, free attractions and deep discounts make Louisville, Ky., a prime vacation destination for families.

Home of the world-famous Kentucky Derby, Louisville prides itself in all things equine. Take a historic walking tour of Churchill Downs with admission to the Kentucky Derby Museum. Kids under five are admitted free, and AAA members receive discounts. Join in the citywide Derby Week celebration at the Kentucky Derby Festival and Thunder of Louisville, the largest fireworks display in America.

If this doesn’t make you proud of your city, I don’t know what to tell you. Share the news!
