Starting off on a much chillier note, we headed to Mammoth Cave for the New Entrance tour. Not bad, not recommended if you aren't in decent shape or wider than a foot & a half due to stairs & how wide they built them. Overall, a pretty fun experience, walked through the Frozen Niagara, two hours of walking through the cave. Afterwards, we took a ferry to get to the backpacking trails in the park. Took Sal Hollow to Turnaround bend to Horseback (?) trail, pretty flat, nice for walking on though because it's nice soft ground so your heels don't hurt that much. Definitely recommended for the fall, not really much to see in the spring unfortunately. As always, great for reflection & whatnot.
For dinner we went to Sahara Steakhouse in Cave City. Although a little heavy on the seasoning on the steak, excellent place to go! I go the ribeye steak sandwich & I couldn't have been happier. My Dad loved his New York Strip Steak & my best friend got the fried chicken sandwich. Delicious.
Onwards to Cumberland Gap National Park tomorrow!
