Day Twenty Three

Breakfast at 8.30am and then a leisurely morning until we left at just before 11am.

We set off, stopping for fuel in the US bike capital, Sturgis, before heading northwards. Roads were pretty empty apart from one interesting set of roadwork where we sat still for what seemed like half an hour before we eventually got to move.

I pulled over at 12.55pm in order to make Ann drive. The only reason for this was Everton were kicking off at 1pm Mountain Time. Had problems with 4G so only got to listen as the picture kept freezing but eventually got it to work.

We crossed into North Dakota for the first time ever shortly before stopping for lunch at Subway in Bowman. Managed to watch the final twenty minutes of the game whilst we sat inside.

With the game finished I could get back to driving and we headed north to I-94 before then following it east to Dickinson.

Checked in and had some rest time before heading out for dinner at Country Kitchen. Food was good as was the old fashioned chocolate milkshake.

Back now for an early night before a busy day tomorrow hopefully starting with an early morning swim as there is a waterslide with the pool!
