Day 28: New Ulm to Owatonna: 73 miles

My family came to the first rest stop today to see me off. Remember Em, no exciting news until after I get home!


Last night Sam won the sauerkraut eating contest at the festival in New Ulm!!! And then he made the front page of the paper!!!! 1 pound of kraut. 36.8 seconds. Zero farts.


He was kind enough to let A.C. wear his crown for the day.


All of the kraut must have made Sam extra fast because he was clocked going 51 mph!


Jethro's Soda Shop. What a great name for a store.


A classic car at the drive in.


Tim taking a break on the menu.


A sweet ride!


Chacko found this cockroach. I told him to put it in someone's helmet but he said that would mean big trouble...for him.


We stopped and played miniature golf...but none of the obstacles moved properly. So Chacko and Suzanne helped with the manual labor.


The castle was no match for Tim.


The most awesome mural ever. Why didn't I learn in Sunday school that after Noah built his arc the animals all had recess. That panda has an awesome attack.


Frank got a break from his regular support role today and got to ride. He looked a little tired at the end of the day...


We ate supper at Hy-Vee and on the reverse side of the fortune cookie a quick Chinese lesson. I feel like this could actually be a really useful phrase.
