Ready to roll!
"Hole-in-the-wall" would describe this little 24 hour restaurant perfectly. There was one cook & one waiter/cashier/dishwasher. It seemed like one of those places where "everybody knows everybody" and "everybody calls you friend!" It was fun to listen to the banter between the regulars & cook. This place had atmosphere & great food!
For perspective...behind Mom & Dad is the front of the restaurant.
Behind us is the back. There was a small room to our left & a couple tables outside for more dinning (if you could call it that!)
There was art EVERYWHERE. Pre-tty cool!
Cool old buildings & factories
Saturday morning was spent biking around downtown Indy. Sometimes you felt like you were down town,
and other times you didn't.
I have never seen a candy shop quite like this one!
I didn't get the memo that this was suppose to be a smiling picture!
Check out the GIGANTIC Whirly Pop!
It was literally the size of my hand.
I decided to flip it over to check out the price & nutrition fact. Unbelievable, I could almost fill up half a tank of gas in my SUV with $21.99! Only 60 calories & 12 g. of sugar in 1 serving though, not bad...oh wait, 1 serving is 1/47 of the lolly pop! For those of you wondering, if you would eat the whole lolly pop at one time you would consume 2,820 calories, 752 g. carbs & 564 g. of sugar and have the worst stomach ache you've ever experienced. RIDICULOUS, this thing should be illegal to sell!
They had something for everyone in this store! Jubes, mango flavored - "fibrous, cholesterol-free delicious dessert...especially suitable for the health conscious." It's your lucky day you health conscious, candy store stopping patrons!
I've never seen so many different kinds of pop! The whole store was lined with bottles! So cool!
Giant Smarties for the kid in all of us.
Candy Buttons were my favorite as a kid. I think if someone would have handed me Candy MEGA Buttons, I would have thought I'd died and gone to heaven!
Around noon we left Indy and headed to Caramel.
Beautiful is the word I'd use to describe the Caramel area. We didn't get any pictures of the million dollar houses we saw but we did snap a picture of this apartment complex.
We stopped at Bub's - Home Of The Big Ugly Burger - for lunch.
If you eat their 1 lb. Big Ugly Burger you get your picture taken with your empty plate/tray and it goes up on the wall. Some people ate 2 or 3 & one guy actually got 4 of them down! We decided the quarter pounders where big enough for us!
The bun on this burger was so good!
This place has been around for a while.
Caramel had different statues around town.
Of course we had to stop and take some pictures!
Our last stop was for yogurt at Huddles
We ate A LOT of food, but we burned A LOT of calories too. On a previous trip my uncle Rick said something like, this weekend isn't about losing weight to which my parents responded we work you hard and feed you well! Amen to that!
Loading up to go home.
It's hard to believe we rode 50 miles in two days. There were however, parts of our bodies that felt every 50 of those miles! Poor dad had some boring traveling companions on the way home. I think all 3 of us fell asleep for part of the trip!
Dad & Mom thanks again for a great weekend! We might just have to buy your trip at an auction so we can do it again!
Better watch out at that auction! You just might have some competition ;) SO fun...Lance and Sara
ReplyDeleteWe will either buy the biking trip again at the auction or maybe one where we sit around all day by a pool. It was really fun so it will be a hard decision, maybe ride our bikes to the pool :) I would go again it was a good time.
ReplyDeleteOh the memories. I love biking with Mom and Dad!
