Visiting the statue of the French explorer Jean Nicolet required a U-turn as we were heading south along WI-57 north of Green Bay, Wisconsin. It gave us a chance to learn just a little bit about the history of this peninsula and even more than last evening’s adventure has whetted our appetite for a more extended exploration of the Door Peninsula. As a bonus, we found a geocache, too.
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
Big Repair, and finally the Mary Rose. All were incredibly informative and well presented.
