Our Route

Wednesday, April 14, 2010

Yesterday was a full day in Branson, in the morning we shopped, some pants for Paul and a blouse for Wendy. In the afternoon we went to a show "Legends"; singers imperonating singers of the past. In the evening we saw another show; a variety show, "Grand Jamboree". The the first half was Country & Western followed after the interval by 50's hits. The evening show was much better than the first!

Today we got off to an early start at 7:25am and drove for 11 hours, it was easy driving and the weather was warm and sunny with a high of 30 Degrees C for most of the afternoon. There were several slowdowns due to construction but otherwise the driving was easy. We lost an hour due to the time change when we entered Indiana so did not arrive in Auburn, Indiana where we are staying the night until 7:25pm. We
are now on Toronto time. Late this afternoon we have reached the point where the trees have yet to leaf out. Along the route today the scenery was beautiful with many flowering trees in full bloom. Below are some of the pictures we took. Tonight was the first night we have ruffed it, we were tired and Burger King was right next door so we eat there!

Tomorrow with an 8am start we should be home by about 3pm depending on the wait time at the border in Port Huron/Sarnia.
