For the Derby, we decided to stay at the historic Brown Hotel.  (I do love the historic hotels).  I treated myself to a delicious fried green tomato to get into the Southern spirit and J got me the perfect Derby hat.  The Boy loves everything green and purple and both colors are associated with good luck.  Sadly, we did not win any money but it was my best memories of Kentucky.  We had a fabulous time at the Derby and then had a lovely dinner plus a bourbon tasting (a bit too much for me!)  Afterwards, there was much dancing and fun downtown.  Louisville isn't a rollicking town but this is one of the best events for a Kentucky experience.
