Introducing Cara to the Indy 500

We took Cara to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the first day of qualifications. We had been talking a lot about the race, the process at the Speedway, what the flags mean, etc and she was really excited to go see what it was all abut in person!

Sitting between turn 1 and 2 to watch the major qualifiers! We also were sitting at the site of 2 wrecks that day!
Umm...thought there was a car in in this shot :)
but there is definitely one in this one :)

Once we were getting too hot and the action on the track slowed down we headed to the musuem! I used to work at the museum gift shop for several summers when I was in college, so I could go to the museum any time I wanted. But this was Scott and Cara's first time!

After the museum we walked over to the bleachers by the pits to watch the action in the pits! What a fun day we had! Cara was pretty excited about the cars and everything about the Greatest Spectacle in Racing!
