On Sunday, February 20th, M, M & I headed out on an exploration of the Indianapolis Skywalks--not only to see some formerly unseen spots of downtown but to throw in a little exercise in honor of Heart Health Month. With the weather taking a turn for the better there was some hope we could explore the Canal Walk but Sunday was a bit nippy so we went back to Plan A.
We started at the Artsgarden and vowed not to stop until every skywalk had been reached. Two hours later; mission accomplished. The following phtographs are things that caught our fancy during the amble. Unfortunately no one thought to bring a "real" camera. The cell phone really doesn't do justice to the old rail road station.
It was the view of Victory Filed from the Marriott that first brought out the cell phone. Laurie wants to be invited to a swanky cocktail party to watch a game from this vantage point.
There were a few other things that caught our eye at the Marriott--one was that their signage needs a little updating.
Even though it was late Sunday afternoon, the Convention Center was in full swing with the 2011 Dealer Expo. This is another spot where the cell phone just didn't do justice to the machines.
Lucas Oil Stadium was serious about keeping random walkers out.
The Crowne Plaza wasn't interested in having random walkers on site either but since their door wasn't locked we went ahead anyway. Housekeeping probably wondered what we were doing wandering around but no one chased us out.
This bridge was our nemesis. Try as we might we could not find away to get to it. So we finally cheated and went outside, found the entrance to the Omni and back tracked to City Centre Mall. Of course at that point it became obvious where the Skywalk left the Mall. I think we were distracted by the Nail Spa when first searching for it.
