Heading To Cleveland For 3 Weeks - Anyone Have Some Suggestions

[eaglesaquarium]

Hey folks...
 
I am heading to Cleveland for business, and will be spending a good amount of evenings and two weekends with very little to do and a lot of down time.  I'm looking for some suggestions based on first hand experience on places to go, things to do and/or places to eat.
 
Any and all suggestions are appreciated!  I am looking to take in some 'local color'.

Even though I have not been to Cleveland for myself (only the suburb in Brisbane

 ) I think some of these ideas may appeal.
1. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

2. The Museum of Natural History ( ok that's more for me because I have never been to a natrual history museum, but they seem fascinating to me), and you can pretend your in your own making of A Night in the Museum.

3.Great Lakes Science Centre, unless your already seeing it for work.

4. Clevland Botanical Gardens (ok its another one I would visit)

5.Walk along the Ohio and Erie Canal, take a camera we want to see pictures

6. Explore the Cemetery at Lake View (dont know about you but old cemeteries can be fascinating)

7.Cleveland Greenhouse, its free and being summer or there abouts many of the plants should be in fine fettle
8. Visit Hale Farm and Village
9. If your not taking family with you than this is a MUST go to the Cleveland Aracade and buy them bribery (sorry missed you gifts),

 
10. Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railway

Hope some of these give you some more inspiration than just things to fill your belly.
