On New Year’s Day we drove I-80 the rest of the way to Johnston, IA.
On the second day of a three day drive we made it from DuBois to Chesterton.
Saturday we said goodbye to Dentel’s and left Stamford to begin our drive to Des Moines.
Woke up, it was a Cracker Barrel mornin’!
Merry Christmas!
Camilla was anxious to get home to her cats.
We drove south and found a Bruegger’s Bagel store on the way for lunch.
We got an early start on our drive so we could make a 9:40am Frank Lloyd Wright Fallingwater house tour reservation.
We ventured out to the falls again for a Behind the Falls tunnel tour today.
Camilla was tired of swimming so the morning of our checkout from Great Wolf Lodge we played in the arcade before going to a hotel by Niagara Falls.
We spent one full day at Great Wolf Lodge swimming, sliding, and playing MagicQuest in the hotel.
It took most of a day to drive from Montreal to Niagara Falls.
We spent our third full day in Montreal at the Biodome de Montreal.
On our second full day in Montreal we walked to the underground city and a tourist section of town.
On our first full day in Montreal we made two visits to the Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal.
We drove to our first international destination Montreal, founded in 1642 as Ville-Marie, or “City of Mary”.
The Stamford Museum & Nature Center is where the wild things are – or at least where the farm things are.
Nav computer issues meant our shorter driving day wasn’t that short after all.
A long day of driving meant rest stops and fast food.
We began our summer road trip after a Ballet Camp Recital of Nemo’s Adventure.
The last stretch of our trek home started north of Atlanta.
Today we drove from Mount Vernon to Atlanta.
We started our three day journey back to Oviedo today.
We drove the rest of the way to San Francisco today and ate wood fired pizza around the block from our hotel.
We had a long drive from Oceanside, OR to Arcata, CA today. Arcata was a change of plans from our intended stop in Klamath Falls since there are fires in the area. Since the coastal road to Arcata had potential closures, we took the long way through a national forest.
Driving from Keokuk to St. Paul with a stop in Des Moines completed the final day of our three day trek from Oviedo to the Twin Cities.
A full day of driving brings us to Keokuk, IA.
One day of driving complete and two more to go on the first stretch of our journey.
