Ohio – State #30 – part 1

When we left Niagara Falls Monday morning, we had a pretty strict timeline to follow. Classic MINI outside of Cleveland was expecting us at 1:00. We have put over 10,000 miles on the MINI and it was due for an oil change. Classic MINI was great! While we had a little picnic in their waiting room and used their wifi, they got the MINI’s oil changed, fluids topped off, tires rotated, and even washed and vacuumed. We’re good to go again! On to Cleveland!

The next morning we were off to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. It was fun to go through it and have some overlap of things we had already seen, like Elvis’ story and Graceland. And the recording studios that we visited down south.

After staying in Ohio for 2 nights, we are moving on to Michigan for 1 night, then returning to Ohio again, that’s why this is only part 1. But on the way to Michigan, we stopped at the National Museum of the Great Lakes in Toledo, Ohio. There we learned that there were many more shipwrecks besides the Edmund Fitzgerald. 😉 We also saw interesting exhibits about the history of the Great Lakes. And while in Toledo there must be a stop at the Mud Hens (AAA affiliates to the Detroit Tigers) stadium. I guess we didn’t look too crazy because they actually let us in to take some pictures of the field!

As I said above, Michigan will be next, but there will be more Ohio content once we go back.

More Spikes! They look lonely at the dealer.
The Mud Hens have a really nice stadium! It would’ve been fun to see a game if they were home.
And of course try the Holy Toledo Tavern!
