We had a room right next to the front desk. When we went out to the continental breakfast, it seemed like we were just walking into our own dining room. We ate lightly and started driving west. We decided to stop in Columbus and visit the Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens . We enjoyed the tropical rain forest and the butterfly garden, and we took more pictures. Notice the picture of Bill with the butterfly on his hat. There was a display of bonsai trees and also some glass sculptures by Dale Chihuly, whose work we are familiar with.
The rest of the day was filled with driving and stopping for snacks. The sunset was spectacular. Too bad it wasn’t over Cape Cod Bay, where the sunset was not very pretty.
We got as far as Effingham, Ill, where we had stayed our first night out. We were careful not to stay in the same hotel, though. This time we picked a Country Inn and Suites. We really enjoyed our stay at the one close to Rochester, NY.
