I'm thinking that my 4 year old will probably like to spend most of the day at the zoo (no problems there ) however as a massive Fred Astaire fan, is there anything in Omaha to mark it as Astaire's birthplace that we could visit?

I'd also like some recommendations on where's good to eat
We're staying at the Fairfield Inn & Suites in downtown Omaha, anything within walking distance of there would be great!

TIA
The Old market is within walking distance. Blocks of resturants and shops. It's a must visit area. The Zoo is one of the best in the country. Here is a link with things to do during the time you'll be in Omaha. http://www.visitomaha.com/visitors/things-to-do/events/

Have fun
