Hello all. I'm back from my vacation. It was great. It was relaxing and fun and I saw a ton of cool stuff and I'm going to spend the next four days going over some of the cool stuff I saw while I was gone.

I want to start with the first stop of the trip, Indianapolis. We spent a day and a half there. I had never spent any extended time in Indy. I always drove through or stopped for one night in a hotel. I never did any sightseeing or touristy stuff. This time we did. The Indianapolis Children's Museum was recommended to us by many people, including RD himself. I knew nothing of this spot. I did some research the night before we went and everything online made it sound like a perfect spot, especially for my kids. My son is ten, obsessed with sports and is very, very smart. My daughter is six, just as smart and loves pretty much any kind of toy that she can get her hands on. The Indianapolis Children's Museum was a perfect fit.

This place is four stories high full of all kinds of different activities that we all could partake in. Along with me, my wife and kids, my mom and dad came with us. We split up into two groups, boys and girls. Miles wanted to go with me and his papa, and Audrey wanted to have, in her words, "a ladies day". It was perfect. Miles, myself and my dad instantly made our way to the outside sports area. This was dope as hell. When you walk outside there are about a dozen different basketball hoops, ranging from five feet to ten feet. It was awesome. You could shoot, dunk and they even had shot clocks so you could get a quick one on one game in no time. Miles and I spent a good amount of time here. My dad also got some shots up. It was great. Right next to the hoops they had a football area. You could throw passes, kick field goals and run a "gauntlet". It was excellent. Not to be outdone there was a soccer field, a baseball diamond, a mini hockey rink, the biggest treehouse I have ever seen, a go kart racetrack and two mini golf courses. It was amazing. We were at the museum for about five hours and my three man crew spent about three and a half hours outside. It was truly wonderful.

My wife, daughter and mom all had a blast really checking out the exhibits at the museum. They went to an area that had a whole entire Greece exhibit. They made olive oil, rode a fake plane and saw some snacks. They went to the American Pop and Barbie exhibit. They were filled with so many toys I think my daughter's head was spinning. She got to make her own Barbie too. They saw a ton of artwork. They got to do some math and science experiments.

We all went to the dinosaur exhibit and that was truly amazing. I am a dinosaur fan so this was a big deal for me. They had some of the coolest rebuilt dinos. They had them in real life situations. They had a fossil digging spot. They had real fossils mixed in with the fake ones. They had dinos all the way from the floor to the wall. It was so dope. I didn't want to leave this spot, but my son kept begging to go outside and my daughter wanted to spend more time with her mimi.

We went back to go to the outdoor sports area, but we stopped to check out the stuff inside before going back out. There were a ton of cool paintings of athletes in motion. They had a pitching machine where you could pitch virtually. They had Lego Nascar's. They even had a TV where you could make your own sports segment on the news. Both my kids loved this. It was also hilarious. My son had a green t-shirt on, and since there was a green screen behind him, all you could see was his head and arms. It ruled.

Hell, even the food court had solid food. This place was so worth the price. I simply cannot recommend it enough. We had some rain during the day, but that did not stop us at all. We went and hooped in the rain. I raced my son on the go-kart in the rain. We mini golfed in the rain. And it didn't slow us down one bit. The Indianapolis Children's Museum is a must stop for anyone going to Indy. It was wonderful.
