The last time we left the Yamadas, they were in Indiana. Lest you think we've been stuck there for a month and a half, let us finish this roadtrip!
Cincinnati. Yet another place I never thought that I'd visit. We visited the statue from the opening credits of "WKRP in Cincinnati",
drove by Paul Brown Stadium, home of the Bengals,
and then, not knowing what else to visit, we picked up a visitor's guide and ventured out to Findlay Market, Ohio's oldest public market.
What a treat! Farmers were selling fresh produce outside the main building.
And inside the historic market were butchers and fishmongers, flower stands, cheese-mongers, and bakeries.
There were delicatessens serving a wide variety of ethnic foods. It was so hard to choose!
My favorite, though, were the Belgian Waffles, prepared fresh to order. We ate them with fresh strawberries from the fruit stand. The batter was perfect - not too sweet - and the waffles were crisp on the outside, while the insides melted in your mouth.
It was just the pick me up I needed. (Fellow foodies, if you ever find yourself in Cincinnati, you now know where to go.)
We left Ohio on a high, and headed for a short overnight stay in Charleston. We didn't have time for sightseeing in West Virginia, but Kyle was excited to see this along the way:
Next stop: North Carolina!
