Thanks Walker! Thats the kind of stuff I was looking for. The science center followed by eating at Lennings then top it off at the theater will definetly be my next outing.

I highly recommend the Speed Art Museuem. It is not about racing, Speed was the guys last name...internationally known museum. Also, the Falls of the Ohio is really fun, lots of fossils and cool other stuff to look at.

I have never been to an Art Museum, definately on my list though. I have fished in front of the Falls for sauger, im assuming the fossils are in the rock around there, does the river have to be low to see them or are they in the big rocks on the bank?

They're in the flat rocks that extend a little ways offshore near the Interpretive Center. The river doesn't have to be all that high to cover them. It's one of the largest naturally exposed Denovian fossil beds in the world; really cool to walk around on.

Ditto on the Slugger Museum. If you like baseball you gotta see it. It's also their factory, so if you go, take the tour. And Slugger Field is a great place to see a ballgame. The Bats' season runs from early April 'til around Labor Day. It's a beautiful ballpark with a great family atmosphere.

Hey Parker, if you are into the party scene 4th. Street Live is pretty cool on the weekends. Slugger Museum is cool as is the Fireamrs museum practically across the road. The Ali center is areally cool as well and you can spend most of a day there. As for food, Mike Linnings is a good deal with a great atmosphere. Also Porcini's has a special that involves aged snapper stuffed with 15 second Italian Sausage!

Went by the ALI center on the way to the BOAT. Never heard of Porcinis"s though. Snapper and saugage sounds great!

Can you tell that louisville folks eat out more per capita than almost any city?

For Italian, I like Ray Parella's on Frankfort or Rocky's across the river in Indiana or Come Back Inn at the corner of Breckinridge & Swan. CBI's meatball sandwich is frickin' AMAZING!

Pizza -- I'm not sure what the place is near Shogun because I'm not in that area too often. sorry.
