On the Road

If it wasn't for the spotty internet connection in our hotel last night, I would have posted some of these yesterday. Rest assured, we are on the road and making speedy progress. On our first day we made it to Niagara Falls.

We made such great time on the road that we ended up in Niagara Falls before dark. We had enough time to walk around and see the falls at dusk AND the next morning in the bright sun.

Paul has been a driving maniac.
Current score: Paul - 1100 miles, Trinity - 0 miles.
He says that he should do all the driving because moving the drivers seat would upset the stuff that is jammed into the back seat. I think he might be secretly wanting to drive the whole way just so he can say he did.

The pets have been doing way better than expected. Fanny has been a champ. She complained a little for the first hour and has been sleeping and chilling out since then. We have sedatives for her but we haven't needed to use them. We've been giving the dogs nice long walks each morning. I'm not sure if they are so calm because they are tired or if they have just finally gotten used to being in the car.

All in all, we've had a smooth trip. I'm getting a lot of knitting done on my sweater, we've seen some great sights and all we have left is a few hundred miles. Then, we are HOME!
