Food Scene

The seafood here is delicious and you can purchase the seasonings and salad dressings to take home. It's hard to live without Johnny's Seasoning.

The zoo here is the perfect size - as soon as you're getting tired of walking, you're done! The park outside of the zoo is great in the fall; definitely check out the dahlia gardens.
