Strike out for a truly excellent time when you go bowling at Southwyck Lanes. This is the largest bowling recreation center in Toledo and offers an impressive 64 lane state-of-the-art facility. There are also sixteen regulation size pool tables, a pro shop and fully-stocked snack bar.

There's nothing quite like getting up close to some of the world's most fascinating animals, and the kids will love doing that at the African Safari Wildlife Park. This is not a typical zoo-type experience. This is an actual breeding animal park which offers a completely different and unique way to see some of your favorite wildlife. Kids will enjoy feeding the animals, seeing the hilarious pig races, and even being a part of the various animal shows. Plus, don't miss the incredible alpaca and llama exhibit, which is the largest exhibit of its kind in the United States. Also, make sure to see the rare giant eland, the biggest antelope in the world, is quite possibly the park's most popular exhibit.

The Toledo Botanical Garden is a benchmark against which similar gardens are measured throughout the country, and with good reason. This is considered to be one of the pioneering gardens because of its dramatically beautiful visual and natural presentation. Fragrant meadows of sunflowers and wildflowers, rose gardens, herb gardens and sharply manicured walkways make spending time here something special for the entire family. Also, the kids will especially love visiting the recreated pioneer garden which many consider to be one of the site's main attractions.

Even though its name may suggest something low key and quiet, Frankie's Inner City Lounge is anything but sedate. This is one of Toledo's premier nightlife venues for new and alternative rock and features a powerful combination of live bands and DJs every night of the week. The mood changes from night to night depending on what band or musical theme is on the menu, ranging from guitar bands on Tuesdays, open mic night on Wednesdays and industrial and Gothic music on Fridays. A cool, happening and loud place, Frankie's is not for the fainthearted.
