A weekend trip to Lexington, Va

To get away from the city for a long weekend we headed to the mountains in the southwest of Virginia. The small town of Lexington, Va had a bit of history, a bit of southern atmosphere and quite a few things to check out.
Our first stop was the Virginia Horse centers were we watched a barrel horse competition



 After watching the riding for some time where even a 1/100 of a second counted Mia checked out the stables and petted some horses

 Then we checked in in our hotel that was in an old manor house not to far from the historic center


 The evening concluded with a pizza at the porch of a little pizza parlor

 On the next morning right after breakfast we waited for the horse carriage tour. Mia had brought her teddy along



Mia didn't care too much about all the history we learned about at the one hour tour but she liked the remote control that allowed to turn a traffic light green for th ecarriage
