Good morning! This morning I am in a hotel in Michigan WI. This is where we landed after out 10 hours in the car yesterday between stopping and checking out small towns and shops and driving to our destination.
I slept A LOT.
I told my friends I felt like a baby in the car seat… the car starts moving, I fall asleep. 😛
Our morning had started out with a stop in Clearwater Minnesota for breakfast…
Ok… we didn’t actually eat that but what a picture right?
We traveled all day – I read (unfortunately) little. We stopped at a few cool shops to check out local fare… and its funny how small towns have these giant “photo-op” spots such as….
There was also a giant chicken, a mouse house, turtle, mermaid, the Mousehouse, etc…
I think these large statues… tourist attractions are hilarious! Do you have any where you live? In Brainerd all we have is Paul Bunyan… 😛
(Hopefully back later today with a review…)
Book Journey 
ZOMG Where is that elephant??? We’ll be driving up to northern Wisconsin later this summer – maybe I can stop by and get a photo too!!! 😀
East of Oseo – on 94 😉 That would be awesome!!!
He is so cute. We have a Mickey Mouse, really huge, in front of our art museum. Of course, they might have changed it, but I loved it. All those pastries look really yummy.
A Mickey – ooh!!!
Safe Travels!
Thanks Meg 🙂
In Northern California, there’s a town with Babe the Blue Ox…I wonder if it’s still there? It was something we loved seeing on road trips back in the day.
Great elephant!
That elephant is awesome!
Love the giant elephant. I can’t think of any giant tourist attraction where I live, but people love to come here still. I mean, I live in CA, I think the great weather is considered a tourist attraction here. Lol.
Enjoy the rest of your trip. And remember, rest is good after a huge injury. Your body needs to recover! Don’t push yourself too hard.
If you stop in downtown Chicago be sure to get a photo with “The Bean” in Millennium Park.
Your friends must be so understanding to let you have your laptop with you for blogging! I hope you are feeling ok 🙂
No crazy giant statues in my town, that I know of. They’re fun to see and stop at, though! :p
