Southern Lights - A Lexington Christmas Delight - November 18 - December 31.

Southern Lights in Lexington at the Kentucky Horse Park - A Great Value for a Grand Evening of Lights and Entertainment.

My wife and I took our daughter and two of our grandchildren to the Southern Lights show at the Kentucky Horse Park last Friday night. On Friday and Saturday nights the cost is $10.00 a carload. Sam and Caroline are 4 and 2 and they had a great time identifying the lights and just being silly.

At the end of the show you can park and go inside to enjoy other activities. There is a petting zoo that is free. The pony rides are $5.00 and there are also rides on camels. I did not catch the price but I could not have paid anyone in my car enough to climb on one of those beasts.

Photo shots with Santa, a train ride and various vendors of ornaments, trinkets and an assortment of sugar laden snacks are also available for a price.

While not a fan of all the activities offered, I can testify that overall the night was a huge success and we are likely to make this evening at the Kentucky Horse Park an annual event with our grandchildren.
