I only stayed in the area overnight. I saw the sights at the Bob Evans next to my hotel

I was not in any pain my first week out of surgery, but I found that activity-wise, I could really only sustain a good energy level for about 2 hours at a time for the last week. If I was doing a lot during those two hours, I would need to nap. If I wasn't doing a lot, I would at least need to lay down and rest my eyes.
Not trying to dissuade you from getting some fun travel ideas, but that first week IMO and others that I have read, does not sound very conducive to sightseeing or similar activities.
