So, the first one is Chicago, IL. It is the closest big city (except Indianapolis), and the best choice for those who are missing the big city life. The trip takes a little more than 4 hours and is not tiring at all. I have put the route below, so that you could see it in details.
The next destination is Washington, DC. This one is much longer but still not so difficult. I suggest that you go there in night time because it is much easier to drive when there's almost no traffic on the road. Washington is the best place to walk around and take some pics (especially the way between Capitol and Lincoln Memorial, which is also quite tiring).
The last one, is Cincinnati, OH. It's not the best choice to hang out but if you want something new, go ahead. Moreover it's only two and a half hours from Bloomington. And shopping malls are a little better than in Indianapolis.
I've never been to Cincinnati, maybe I should give it a try sometime!
回复删除I really like going to Chicago, but it's hard to decide where to stay! The hotels are kinda expensive.
