Make history as a couple by revisiting some aquatic history when you both pay a visit to the SS Col. James M. Schoonmaker museum ship in Toledo. This vessel has been a vital part of Toledo's skyline as it is moored near the city's International Park. This impressive ship has been said to be the world's largest bulk freighter, and it is a mighty example of engineering function and artistic style. It has since been renamed the Willis B. Boyer Museum Ship. Its maritime heritage awaits you when you step on board and experience this symbol of a bygone era.

The Toledo Ballet has always had a good reason to dance. This entertainment group has been maintaining its impressive tradition of stunning, impressively choreographed performances for over 70 years and there is no sign of stopping. In addition to presenting works that are based on the classics, the ballet also incorporates modern touches to different presentations throughout their season. This includes elements of jazz, hip-hop, and musical theater that all work to not only challenge the dancers to new levels of performance, but also appeals to a wider audience who otherwise may not have ever thought of catching one of the ballet's mesmerizing performances.

Friendly and slightly trendy is the best way to describe The Distillery. This is one of Toledo's favorite places to hang out, enjoy some tasty pub grub and enjoy music. The nightlife venue always features an impressive lineup of excellent cover bands, but on the nights when there is no live music, there is an excellent selection of 80s, 90s and current music being expertly spun by the in-house DJs. The Distillery's casual atmosphere, great drink selection and young crowd make this a great place to hang out any night of the week.

If you are looking for a truly exhilarating hiking experience, choose the Oak Openings Hiking Trail. This is highly regarded as one of the best long hikes in the Toledo area. As its name obviously states, the recreation trail stretches out for seventeen miles and offers a spectacular selection of wildlife and foliage to enjoy on your trek.
