We took a day off from our home assignment work on Friday. What did we do? We bundled up (well, my parents and I did anyway…) and headed off to Red River Gorge!

The Gorge is one of my favourite places in Kentucky, and we’d been talking about going pretty much since we’d arrived in the US. Personally, I’ve always wanted to see the Gorge in all of its autumn glory. All the trees change colour! Fortunately, we chose a week when there was still a bit of colour left.
We were also blessed with great weather!
We began our day with a walk out to Gray’s Arch, where we stopped for awhile to have lunch. Leon also decided he was going to climb to the top of the arch!

A family photo was also a must.

Then we continued our walk and enjoyed all of the autumn colours along the way.

| There were so many bright red leaves! |
After our walk out to Gray’s Arch, we decided one more short walk was the perfect way to end our day. So off on a short walk out to Princess Arch we went. I thought this particular natural bridge was very pretty.

We then ended our lovely day out with dinner at Miguel’s Pizza! Seriously, you must visit this place if you ever go to the Gorge…
