TOP OF CHAPTER
Cincinnati
Cincinnati splashes up the Ohio River's banks. Its prettiness surprises, as do its neon
troves, its twisting streets to hilltop Mt Adams, and the locals' unashamed ardor for a
five-way. Amid all that action, don't forget to catch a baseball game, stroll the riverfront
and visit the dummy museum.
