Well, the good times continue! We got movin' this morning and left Palmyra headed out west. Our final destination today...Findlay Ohio. We're still not sure what's in Findlay other than a clean hotel room but we're happy enough for that. Since Palmyra is only an hour and a half away from Niagara Falls we decided to stop off and enjoy the sights. We had to stay on the US side since nobody had a passport and we didn't want to get stuck in Canada...but it was still fabulous! We knew we had a long drive ahead of us so we didn't spend a ton of time there but we took a quick ride on "The Maid of the Mist" and got a nice taste of the falls. Everyone loved it--Aaron was super excited to see the water and they were all thrilled to see rainbows and get wet on the boat. Good times, it was a quick visit and then we were on our way again! Our planned path took us right past Kirtland Ohio so we decided stopped off for a rest stop and took a quick walk around the temple. We didn't see any of the city because we needed to get going on the road but it was still nice to say we've been there...maybe we'll come back another year when we can see more. Today was the first day that the kids really didn't travel well. Nothing major just some of the stuff that we have (miraculously) avoided thus far. We had some "they're touching me" and "are we there yet" moments. Since we're more than halfway into our trip and today was the first cranky travel day we've had we are doing really well. And they weren't that bad, you could just tell that everyone was tired. We're all ready to snuggle up in these comfy beds and enjoy the beauty of hotel black out curtains (I really need some of these for my house!) Okey dokey. I'm pretty tired, no real exciting stories from today...sleep well everyone!
Looks like you've been packing in so many fun stops along your route. Glad everything is going well. Can't wait to see you at the end of the month.
