Summer 2013 Adventure - Day 17

We woke up far more refreshed than the previous day and got ready to leave our super nice hotel.  We got Katy's morning coffee, then continued down the road to Columbus to meet up with our friend who attends Ohio State medical school.  Before we got to Columbus we passed a cool looking area near Cumberland, OH called "The Wilds," which is an endangered wildlife conservation area.  It looks like an awesome place to visit and tour, so we plan on doing that in a future adventure.  We had a nice lunch at a Mediterranean place in Columbus called Aladdin's Eatery with our friend.  The food was great, and the conversation was better as we caught up with a friend we hadn't seen since our summer adventure last year.  We stopped at Walgreens for some soda, then we were off toward Indiana.  We got to our hotel in Muncie earlier in the afternoon, so we had some time to drive around town and take a look at the area.  We drove down to the hospital and it looked fantastic!  The hospital itself was very nice, but the family medicine center looked modern and awesome!  There were lots of nice neighborhoods around close to the hospital too.  Muncie reminded us a lot of Conway because of how spread out it was and how there were not a lot of tall buildings.  The area had lots of good restaurants and shopping, and we had dinner at one of the local Japanese restaurants called Fuji.  The food was great and we went back to our hotel to talk about the city and what we thought about it.  Tomorrow we will explore Muncie some more and head northwest!
