OHIO- Put In Bay

Once we got to Put-In-Bay we headed into town by way of school bus :)




While waiting for another cousin to arrive, the boys headed to check out Perry's Monument...


The girls went shopping...




Once the cousins arrived we rented golf carts for 2 hours to explore the island!








Our first stop- Ohio State Fish Hatchery. We did a 10 minute stop here, checking out all the fish of the Lake Erie region.







Then we headed to South Bass Island State Park. Daddy touched Lake Erie for the first time and we had fun throwing rocks!









Then onto the Lake Erie Islands Visitor and Wildlife Center where we stopped for a quick photo op!




We had snacks on the golf cart... they girls learned how to drink pringles :)


Stopped by an "amusement center" for a photo op and to cut a geode in half. The geode was from South America but it was still cool to see what was inside of a rock!








In exploring Put in Bay, Ashley found her house :)


Our last stop on the golf cart was at Perry's Monument. Here we walked into and around the monument, and got to see someone shoot a musket gun while explaining what the battle of 1812 would have looked like on the island. Then we hit up the visitors center to find pout a little more about the monument...







As we were walking to lunch at Frosty's in the pouring rain, Abby feel asleep and slept most of lunch. Frosty's is a cool memory to revisit since I remember coming here with my Grandma.




And then we headed back to Gipa Larry's trailer via the ferry!



So much fun!
