Explore the Noah's Ark Encounter in Kentucky
Since its opening in 2016, the Ark Encounter has become quite the popular attraction and the local hotels have jacked up their prices accordingly, making it difficult to find a hotel for under $100 per night in Williamstown. For that reason, I’d recommend booking something in nearby Dry Ridge where we stayed, which is about 15-20 minutes away from the Ark. There are plenty of affordable Airbnb options like this farm stay or this one in a B&B. Everything is so green and I know you will enjoy the beautiful rolling hills of Kentucky as much as we did!

Trade one Hot Place for Another this Summer With your Family - Florida
As soon as I got off the plane, I could feel the humidity. No, it wasn’t Austin, Texas. That really isn’t humidity. I grew up in Philly and know what real humidity is. The humidity I’m talking about is the humidity in Orlando, Florida where I flew out earlier this week. Temperatures were in the 90s this week with occasional rain in the late afternoon or evening to cool off the temperatures a little.
