Canada & USA 2017 - Part 12

Put-In-Bay

Thursday - September 21st 2017

For today our friends had planned to take us to an island in Lake Eerie called Put-In-Bay. So after breakfast we hit the road and about an hour later we arrived at the ferry dock. Unfortunately we just missed the ferry by a few minutes, but we didn't have to wait too long, because half an hour later the next one departed. It took us about 20 minutes to reach the island and once we arrived, we rented a golf cart to get around on Put-In-Bay.

Our first stop on the island was Perry's Victory and International Peace Monument and then we just drove around the small village and checked out the shops. Since it was already around noon, we decided to eat our sandwiches we brought along in a nearby park. Afterwards we visited Put-In-Bay Winery, where we sampled some white wines and then we headed to the Massie Cliffside Preserve. Before we drove back to the village, we checked out the second winery on the island. On the way back to Put-In-Bay we came across an outdoor bar that sold Stiegl Beer from our hometown in Austria. Unfortunately it wasn't open, but it was cool to see an Austrian biergarten in Ohio. Before we had to return our golf cart, we got some drinks at a pub and soon we were on our way back to our friend's house. For dinner we stopped at a Taco Bell. Although it is definitely not the best food, but once during each USA trip we have to eat there.
