Here’s my Grand Rapids travelblog entry, I know, I don’t need to state that this is a travelblog, but for me, this is almost the same as showing slides to all your friends and thoroughly bore them to death. So, here is my writing slid-show, and it will bore you.

One place I visited is the Fish Ladder, this is where the salmon and stellhead’s find their first hurdle upon their momentous journey to spawn upstream from Lake Michigan to Lansing, which is located in mid-Michigan. Another place of interest is the Grand Rapids Children’s Museum. Inside, there is tons of activities for children; I wish I had something like this when I was growing up. The Grand Rapids Public Museum, which has an old-fashion carousel indoors and 3 stories of interesting things. The Grand Rapids Art Museum, which not only carries some famous painting, but also features local artists as well. I only toured the Grand Rapids Symphony, I didn’t have time to see a concert, but the Symphony includes a ‘Lollipop’ series for young children, which the tour boast to be extremely popular and successful.

I found, which I didn’t think possible, that Grand Rapids really does have a lot to offer travelers and visitors. I’m a little spoiled when it come to the arts and entertainment, coming from Chicago, but I was totally pleased with the amount of things to do here. I only spent two days here at this really nice hotel that I found on-line: hotelgrandrapids, which was conveniently located in the downtown district.

I really liked the Meijer Gardens, it really is worth a visit if you ever come to Grand Rapids, there was quite a lot to do and see. As I reflect about my two days visit, Grand Rapids really does offer a great deal of culture for children. I think, if I wanted to raise a family, I’d choose Grand Rapids.
