Driving to Iowa!

Yesterday was not very eventful, but we made it just past Des Moines, Iowa at a little before 11 pm. We spent most of our morning and early afternoon in Oshkosh getting some memorabilia and visiting the museum! We learned a lot about Dick and Burt Rutan, and the picture below is of their racer!


got a really cool vintage poster and Michael got a poster of his favorite aircraft at the show, the Gee Bee Super Sportster (which was just as cool as it was massive), and two patches for AirVenture 2014 :)


And then we drove, on and on and on for 7 hours to get to Iowa! We passed a lot of corn fields, and we learned that gas is very inexpensive in places with corn! (The picture shows it was $3.28 per gallon)


We ate a great dinner at Legends Bar and Grill in downtown Des Moines. We were originally going to Fongs Pizza, which was featured on the Travel Channel, but we arrived around 8 and it had an hour and a half wait for a table :( Legends was great though! Wings and a chicken wrap, and some more fried cheese and salad :) however, some stuff on their menu didn't make sense, like Chicken Fried Chicken haha


We camped in a small town half an hour outside of Des Moines, where we were able to freshen up a little bit and go to sleep at midnight. Now we're on our way to Enid, Oklahoma!
