The Kentucky Derby

Last weekend, I went to Kentucky with some friends for the weekend. We went because we wanted to go to the Kentucky Derby. In case you don't know, the Kentucky derby is a horse racing event that happens every year and only happens in Louisville, Kentucky. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kentucky_Derby) <--go there if you want to know more about the Derby

The first day we got there we bought all kinds of Kentucky beer and liquor. When I saw that they sold a beer called "horse piss beer" I just had to try. You're probably thinking, "Does it really taste like horse piss?" Well actually no it didn't. Actually, it was the best tasting beer I had in Kentucky.ほんとうにおいしい。 I wish I had bought some more.
The next day was the big event. We were all excited to go the Derby and get drunk but there was a problem. It started to rain.あめがふりました Even though it was raining we still had to go because it was the reason we came there. So we went and sure enough it started to rain harder but even so there were a lot of people there and some still dressed up in summer dresses for the event.

We started to drinking a famous Kentucky drink called Mint Julep. It a sweet tasting drink mixed with bourbon. It was really good and after a few I was already started to feel a little drunk. I walked around looking for things to that pictures of but the heavy rain made it almost impossible so I gave up after taking a few more. This guy's costume was pretty cool.おもいしろい

This horse wasn't in the race but I liked it. うまですよ！
My friends muddy feet. lol It didn't stop raining the whole day until last race. It stopped and then the sun came out. A little bit too late I thought since I was soaking wet. Luckly I didn't get a cold.

After the race we all headed home tired and wet. Once we got home I took a shower and went to bed. The next day I had a huge hangover. We packed out thing and left. Even though it rained most of the time, Kentucky was a great time. I think I will go again next year. Hopefully, it wont rain next time.
