It is, of course, the only thing I thought there was to do in the city. Josh and I were surprised at how un-interactive the exhibits were. Most were simply clothes, cars, notes, posters, or records sitting in glass cases. Well, the cars were not in glass cases. It did have quite a lot of exhibits, but since we&#8217;re not very well versed in music many of them amounted to, &#8220;so who&#8217;s that?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/72.233.35.22\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/img_1600.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/72.233.35.22\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/img_1600-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"La Strada\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-913\" srcset=\"http:\/\/liryon.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/img_1600-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/liryon.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/img_1600.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Afterwards we went out to dinner. We were surprised to find a pedestrian only street lined with all sorts of restaurants, Mexican, Vietnamese, Mediterranean, Irish, American. We gave the Mediterranean one a try. It was called La Strada. We started with a free fried eggplant appetizer because they were out of the one we actually wanted. I had a chicken and cuscus dinner. Everything we had there was excellent. However, after dinner they kept offering us all sorts of things. Desert, coffee, complimentary fruit, then later tea, and a wet hand cloth. It was a little too much, made me feel sort of bad that all I wanted to do was pay and leave. Actually, I didn&#8217;t have to pay because Josh owed me a dinner since the Red Sox &#038; Yankees tied the season series last summer at 9 games apiece (we decided due to extenuating circumstances that I would win ties).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m blogging from the Friday awards ceremony at the FIRST Buckey Regional, but when I arrived in Cleveland on Wednesday my first stop after the hotel was the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
