3 days and 30 hours of driving

Thursday:   Woke up at 4 am. Drove 13 hours. We slept at a truck stop in Wawa.
Friday:       Woke at 3 am. Drove 14 hours. We slept at a Walmart in Kenora.
Saturday:    Woke up at 7 am. Drove 3 hours. Sleeping at a campground in Winnipeg.

After driving for 2 days, our campground feels like paradise. The beast is not so difficult to drive after all. John was really tired on Friday so I finally got a turn. Yesssssssssss...It was really exciting!

Like any trip, there are always disasters. We didn't realize the bottom compartments were not water proof. All the boxes of books were wet. We quickly aired the books and cut off the soaked parts. We manage to save most of the books but 100 were thrown away...not so bad!

Funny thing about being over tired and all cooped up together in the beast...everything and anything triggers endless laugh attacks! Laughing so hard feels so great!

A trip of a lifetime - a trip we'll remember forever - thanks to everyone for making it happen!
