For a change of pace, nearby historic downtown areas and a regional zoo and museums provide additional cultural and educational outings." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.
