Today was wonderful (not that any other day wasn't) mainly because we only had a three and a half hour drive. Suddenly the drive from Athens to Leesburg doesn't seem so bad. Ha!
We stopped in Lawrence to see the University of Kansas. By far, they had the smallest bookstore we have seen so far, but downtown Lawrence is very similar to downtown Athens. It really had that college town feel.
Then we drove into Kansas City and toured the city while we waited for Bryan's friend Jimmy to call.
We checked out this little square called the Power & Light district. It was this really cool little block of restaurants, bars and stores.
When we saw this, we knew where to send Mr. Edwin for is next vacation . . .
After that, we met up with Jimmy and he took us to a local hotel & casino and treated us to an all-you-can-eat buffet of Alaskan snow crab legs. It was unbelievably good!
We're about to hit the sack. This will be the first time in eleven days that we are sleeping in something other than a tent or a cheap motel, so we may not wake up until 12. Tomorrow we're going to head towards St. Louis to see the Arch and check out Busch Stadium.
Later.
