Indianapolis Adventure: A Solo One-Day Road Trip ππ¨
Drove from Chicago to Indianapolis (~3 hours) through endless cornfields π½βso Midwest! Started my day with a minor mishap: coffee spilled on my white shirt βπ , so first stop was Circle Centre Mall ποΈ (49 W Maryland St). Pro tip: The giant skylight here is insta-worthy! πΈ Fueled Up @ Slapfish π¦ (345 Massachusetts Ave) Their lobster roll was buttery perfection! πβ¨ Fresh side salad balanced it nicely. Afterwards, strolled past quirky muralsβthe painted eyes kinda followed me... creepy-cool! ππ History Pit Stops ποΈ: Indiana War Memorial & Museum (Soaring & solemn) Depew Memorial Fountain (Perfect picnic spot!) Soldiers & Sailors Monument (Climb for skyline views!) Indiana Statehouse (Gold-domed beauty) Sweet Detour π«: South Bend Chocolate Co. (30 Monument Cir) grabbed a hot cocoa with a chocolate-dipped spoonβgenius! Missed Opportunities π’: Indianapolis City Market (Paused ops) Tomlinson Tap Room (Permanently closed) Nature Break πΏ: Wandered Central Canal + White River State Park (801 W Washington St). The riverside trails scream "slow living"βkayaks, bikes, and lazy strolls. #Indianapolis #SoloTravel #MidwestVibes #RoadTripDiaries ππΈπ«
