After our business trip to the West Coast and the stop at REV to pick up the RV, we were heading back to Indianapolis, IN as we did not have enough time to see the sights on the way up.
Summer months are just too busy to sightsee and there is not enough time to do so properly. Worked the week, cleaned up the RV, found that they did not do as well a job as the first time around. Is that because we were not there to look over their shoulders?
So, headed into Indy on a nice morning. Nights have become slightly cooler and are in the mid 40’s, but the days are still all the way up to low 70’s. Exceptional weather to explore.
Not knowing what to expect, we started with the city. Found a parking garage and walked into the downtown area with the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial at it’s central axis.
Down Washington Street to the Indiana Statehouse
and the Eiteljorg Museum
the NCAA Hall of Champions on the White River Trail
and back past the Convention Center
Up Meridian Street to the Indiana World War Memorial
past Obelisk Square
and the Scottish Rite Cathedral
at the American Legion Mall we turned around and headed back
The car was parked at the City Market and we were hoping to get some food before heading home. Unfortunately they only serve breakfast and lunch and were closed.
So we headed back to the Campground but had to stop at the Heidelberg Haus for some Leberkaese
Tired but happy we went home. We did not think that Indianapolis has so much to see, positively surprised that there is and everything is within walking distance.
