ANOTHER FEW DAYS IN HENDIANAPOLIS

Eunice and I toured some other places in the city. There was this War Memorial and we went back to White Water State Park to visit a few of the attractions. We wanted to hear this steam clock go off and play some Hendy song but it wasn't working. We did see a bird who apparently flew into the window of the State Museum. After checking its pulse we realized that it was dead. Poor birdie.

So we went to the NCAA Hall of Champions which was in the park. Saw these statues in the front and one of them was wearing a New York Sharks jacket. We decided to hang on their shoulders for a photo op. Grabbed some lunch nearby.

That evening we ate at Meridian on Meridian where we met the owner Rick Lux.

The other places we visited were the Children's Museum and the Rhythm Discovery Center both in the downtown area but not at the park. All in all we had a great time and hope to go back soon.

HENDIANAPOLIS, HENDIANA

Esther and I renamed another city having gone to Indianapolis, Indiana. It's now, Hendianapolis, Hendiana. We took Air Tran and stayed at the Omni Hotel and had lunch at Harry & Izzy's located just down the street.

Off to the canal located in White River State Park where we met Jeff, the gondolier. Instead of music coming out of a CD player, he sang some great Italian songs a cappella. Loved the gondola. It quietly went down the canal without hearing about a tour of the area.

Afterward we took a tour of the Hendy Motor Speedway museum and eyed the car that we wanted.

The next day began at White River State Park where we toured on a segway...well...that is, we hung out in Merle's bag since we're too short to reach the "handle bars". There are lots of museums here including the Hendiana State Museum where we saw an IMAX movie called Born To Be Wild. Afterward we had lunch at the Tea Room there and met a lot of people including some from tourism and a group of ladies who lunch.

We thought about going to the Hendiana Zoo but some troll tried to talk us out of it. We decided to at least explore the gardens.
