Our 1 Chance: Biking In Indy Day 1

My parents enjoy biking, and Indianapolis is a great place to bike. They have several different trails that take you all over the city. Dad & Mom enjoy it so much that they started taking different people to Indy with them to bike. We got the chance to go on Friday & Saturday of last week. They knew where to go and what shops and restaurants were fun to stop at, so we just relaxed and enjoyed the ride :)

In true Ryan & Jamy fashion, we took lots of pictures so here's a recap of the first day.

We arrived at the Monon Trail around noon on Friday.

We biked about 5 miles to Broadripple where we stopped to eat lunch at the Petite Chou.

Such a cool restaurant!!!

The food was AMAZING, and very GAPS friendly (for anyone interested)! Those omelets were made out of free range eggs, Mom's salad had fresh ingredients & the pile of fruit that came with my chicken salad...we've never seen a restaurant quite like it. Too bad it's not located in Ft Wayne!!

This was the water they served!

Later in the afternoon we happened upon this old watch tower type thing.

Dad said that on a previous trip he had climbed to the top of it.

It didn't take much persuading for me!

Didn't expect to see this on the other side of it!

We talked Ryan into joining us.

See where Ryan's hand is? Dad climbed up on one of those to take our picture. His idea, not ours!

The Best Chocolate In Town...we decided we must see if this was true!

Dad LOVES Priceline. He got a really great deal on a 4 Star hotel in downtown Indy. We were a little out of our element! No thank you, we will park our own vehicle. No thank you, we can carry our luggage to our room. No thank you, we don't need our shoes shined for $7. No thank you, we don't want to spend $14.95/day on wifi for our suite. I think you get the picture!
