Our sole purpose for going to Kentucky was to see the
Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter and we were not disappointed. The Creation Museum is beautifully done with
gorgeous grounds. They have a huge pond
and the landscaping is beautiful. This
is a museum where you need to take time to read as you go through it. The emphasis of the museum is creation versus
evolution from a Christian perspective.
The displays are very well done.
We spent 2-3 hours here. 
The following day we went to the Ark Encounter and that was
amazing. The is built to scale and is massive.
The grounds are gorgeous and it’s easy to move throughout the
complex. The Ark is a good distance from
the parking lot and they provide buses back and forth at no extra cost. All I could think about was how in the world
Noah and his family were able to build something of this size and the only way
was with God’s help. The folks who
designed the inside did a lot of research and did their best to display how
Noah may have designed the inside with everything from how to contain and care
for all the animals and his family to dealing with getting fresh water and air
and dealing with waste. They also had to
grow food. Noah didn’t know how long
they would be on this ship so had to prepare for the long haul. In the end, it was about a year. The whole thing is an engineering marvel and
only God could have supplied him with all that he needed to build and design
the Ark. They are planning to expand the
park with other biblical settings so this is something we will definitely want
to come back and see again. They have
numerous areas to get food on the property but we went to the cafeteria for the
buffet. For seniors the cost was only
$10 and that included your beverage. For
a place like this, I consider that a really good price. 
I highly recommend taking the time to come and see these
sights. The Creation Museum is up closer
to Cincinnati and the Ark is about 45 miles south of it in Williamstown, KY so
both are easy to get to. We visited them
both in the mornings and had the afternoons to relax. 
Today we started working our way back to Oklahoma and will
spend three nights at the Paris Landing/Kentucky Lake KOA near Buchanan, TN.
