Make sure you stop in at Toft's Ice Cream in Sandusky, yum yum yum. Much better than Cold Stone. As for food, check out The Weenee Hut (across from mall), Danny Boys (on corner of Rte 250 and Bogart), Parkertown (in Castalia), and Brass Lantern.

Are you looking at staying in the Sandusky area? Marblehead is really nice. They have nice beaches. What does your DD like to do? How about museums, shopping, etc.
