DAY
14

A very long day driving to Gettysburg

Sorry today will be a slow news day. We broke the journey with a Burger King lunch.

Yep another gratuitous picture of Ian eating, a cornetto this time!

We covered in excess of 400 miles today, 296 of which were on Interstate 81.

We passed Woodstock, unsure if this is "the" Woodstock or one of the many Woodstocks dotted around the states,

This blurry on the move snap, bears testiment to the fact that temperatures soared to a scorching 100 degrees!

Finally a glimpse of the light at the end of the tunnel, after a shade under 7 hours on the road, not including stops.

The second blurry pic of the day, from our waitress at O'Rourkes Restaurant, right across the street from our 1863 Inn at Gettysburg.

Well goodnight dear reader, Ian is shattered from his mamouth road trip, we have a tour tomorrow, followed by another gruelling drive, sleep well... We will xx
