Yum! - a journey update

Here we are, so many miles from home, enjoying the endless bounty of breakfast sweets.  It doesn't rank as the best breakfast ever, but any place that offers this much sugar in variety is a hit with the kids.

In other news, we put 800 miles on the Ody yesterday.  The kids did really well for being cooped up for 13 hours.  They watched 2 redbox movies, sang to their favorite Skillet songs, and played Angry Birds on the Nook.

As for me, I drove for about 170 miles, from Kansas City into somewhere in Oklahoma.  I had my Droid X2 with google navigation mounted above the Ody's navigation, so how could I get lost?  I absolutely love technology, by the way.  As we drove, we decided we needed new music, so we downloaded Bebo Norman's Christmas album from Amazon mp3.  Not to mention my brother and best friend was tracking my every move on google latitude!  Cross country journeys are so much more fun than they used to be.  The last time we did a journey like this was in 2002.

I better eat my muffin.  Then it's back on the  road for just 3 hours!
