We made it to NY

By Kate, 30 May 2009

We’ve arrived in NY! Below is the route we took. (If anyone every tries to convince you that driving across the country is “not that bad”… DO NOT LISTEN!) It was quite the haul.

We had two friends with us to help with the driving and to add to the good times. Aside from the absolutely no sleep, good times were had by all.

Itasca State Park

Neil’s favorite state, Wisconsin.

Lake Itasca

We rented bikes in Minnesota’s Lake Itasca where the headwaters of the Mississippi are.

Best part of the trip was visiting with Neil’s parents. Having great food & fun times. Neil even went on a shopping spree with his Pops. Nothing like shopping in Fargo!

    i agree with you. it is that bad. it really, really is.

    we’ll be doing the trek with a 2-year-old and a 7-month-old pregnant lady (that’s me) in a couple of months. can’t say i’m looking forward to it!

    glad you made it safely!

    Hooray! Welcome to the East!

    (Apologies if I was one of the ones who led you astray. I suppose this is a literal YMMV situation . . .)

    This is a pretty sneaky way to visit the state with the best cheese, Neil.

    I’m so glad you got to hang with Joel and Patty – they are pretty great human beings!

    Now try not to get mugged in The Big Apple.
