12 hours of driving today! Destination is along Lake Superior. Kids are excited to be on the road!
12 hours is long, though. So they took turns trying out music and audio books when they wanted something to do. Or looking at maps.
Yay! A gas station stop! We "run" as efficiently as possible through the bathrooms and then enjoy stretching our legs until Dad is ready. Then buckle up and off we go. Usually five minutes a stop, and rarely a stop sooner than every four hours...unless we are switching drivers.
12 hours are up. And we have a reservation! So happy to be out of the van!
I booked a site close to the playground. We quickly set up tents and the kids played while I made an easy dinner. Then we went for a walk while the daylight lasted. So nice to be traveling into longer days!
Yay, we can run!
We went for a walk on the beach as the sun set. Amazing.
A lot of driftwood seems to pile up here. We didn't make anything but enjoyed exploring what others had built!
Not hot enough for a swim, but nice to get wet anyways.
It was soooooo beautiful. Stonehenge replica in driftwood looked great against the backdrop. Lovely end to a smooth day of travel. Off to bed for an early start tomorrow. Hopefully.
