I thought that Macon would take me a bit off course but in reality it’s not too much. Although here in Macon I could see that it was totally worth the slight detour. I found a small little cottage where I could grab a bite to eat called the Sidney Lanier Cottage. The food was great and not too pricey, which makes Sean Zarinegar very happy, because he still has a lot of road to cover. I went down to the city center that has a convenient trolley tour of the city. I didn’t know much about Macon but it really is a very interesting little city. I decided to go to the Tubman Museum, and since the place didn’t seem too big I thought I’d be in and out. It turned out that I spent almost two hours there just watching the fascinating murals all over. This place is tops!
My last stop in Macon was the Museum of Arts and Science. I got to see a fossilized whale that is said to be over forty million years old. The science stuff for the kids was pretty good, but I would take children under the age of six, because I think it’s mostly focused on that demographic. Either way I still enjoyed my time there playing around with all the neat little science toys. I decided not to stay in Macon but rather drive on and go to Gainesville to get lodging there for the night. Right now I’m just finishing my coffee and then I’ll be heading out. This is Sean Zarinegar sipping some hot java and getting ready to hit the road. See you in Gainesville.
