We are going to take a little break from the zoo and go to downtown Indianapolis to see a few of the sights.
Indianapolis is the home of the NFL team the Colts, this is their "home" where the games are played
You can read the story behind "Lucas Oil" here
Here is an inside picture
Your Aunt went to a ball game there, the Green Bay Packers vs the Colts
The Packers lost that game, but your Aunt still enjoyed the game.
Another site downtown is the Soldiers and Sailors Monument
It was erected to honor Hoosiers (that is what people from Indiana are called) who were veterans of the American Revolution
We took some pictures
During the holiday season they decorate the monument with thousands of lights to from a Christmas tree
It is very pretty and attracts thousands of visitors downtown.
I hope you enjoyed this little diversion from the zoo.
I will be taking a little trip this weekend so I won't be blogging in the next few days. Check back next week!
Your friend
Flat
