My dealer sez: "Dude there ain't nuting hare at Cleveland!!"

haaa? Maaan, your dealer must be smoking some good sh*t! Nuttin' here in Cleveland? Well, I guess I he doesn't know about the
1. RnR Hall of Fame with original Robert Johnson artifacts (ever heard of the guy that sold his soul to the devil at the cross-roads in 1920's?) to name just one of few extraordinary displays.
2. Very cool hands on Science center with some kick-a** IMAX movies
3. Crawford Auto and Aviation museum with multiple Buggati-s, a Jaguar SS100 (first mass produced car to do 100mph), DeLorean serial number 1 (yes that is the first car off the production line!). Aston Martin Lagonda (first computerized car if I'm not mistaken). How about a 1903 Benz! Yeah I'm sure they have those all over US. A small collection of early teen Harley Davidsons and the list goes on and on and on . . .
4. The Severance hall (home of the best orchestra in US)
5. The USS Cod, WW2 submarine and William Mather (steam ship from 1800's) both in the Cleveland harbour and open for public tours
6. Little Italy (who wouldn't want to go and eat at an original Italian place and sit next to your local mafia boss? j/k) It's an aswome place to wine and dine!
7. Coventry area where the local artists hang out. A bunch of cool stores. Highest number of coffee shops per square mile!
8. The Flats, legendary Flats! Sit outside on the banks of the Cuyahoga River ( YES the same one that cought on fire few decades ago. It's much better now, I swear!

There are actually fish swimming in it!). Watch the river, the lake (Erie for those of you that might not be from US) and the bridges go up and down to let the ships and trains go through. Oh, sitting outside at the Fado's (a pub transported over from Ireland) eating smoked salmon and enjoying the lake breeze. Nothing like it! Also home to a number of famous (and infamous!) clubs and concert halls. Robert Lockwood Jr. (Robert Johnson's step son) plays every week even though he is 80+ years old. Some of the best blues north of the delta. Hard Rock Caffee, Agora (
9. Cedar Point! The number one amusement park in the world last three years in the row. 3 of the 5 best rides are located there. around 20 major rollercoasters in one park!
10. The Cleveland art museum. One of the nicest collections of paintings and artefacts in the world. here's a quote from them:
One of the world's great art museums. The Cleveland Museum of Art is a favorite destination for art lovers and casual visitors alike. The collection of more than 40,000 works of art ranges over 5,000 years from ancient Egypt to the present, and includes masterpieces from Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. It is renowned for its superb quality and cultural breadth. And check this out, IT'S FREE!
11. NASA Glenn Research facility with it's museum. Yeah, there are Apollo capsules and moonwalked suites on display all over the world, right? I don't think so
12. Numerous micro breweries and close by "wine country"

My relatives were here for two weeks and they left dissapointed that they didn't get to see everything!
