Road trip

So after an amazing day on Sunday we had a bit of a lie in before checking out of our hotel in Richmond. It was a nice room and the hotel staff again were very nice.

We sorted all the cases and loaded them in the car before heading to a nearby IHOP where we had a delicious breakfast. I had bacon, egg, sausage, hash browns and toast.

We needed a good breakfast as we had a long journey today. It would be a 4 hour drive to a place called Bedford in Pennsylvania. We were merely using this as a stop off on our way to Buffalo,New York.

We drove through some amazing countryside onto some rural roads. We were in the true American heartland. Wooden houses with pickup trucks and white picket fences. It was very idillic, especially as we had Brooks and Dunn blasting from the radio,made it even more authentic.We fueled up the car for the first time half way into the journey which was good going considering we had done a good few miles so far.

We only stopped once more for a coffee,we arrived at Bedford at around 5pm.

Once all the luggage had been taken up to the rooms we headed to a steakhouse which was conveniently only a 2 minute drive up the road. I had a lovely crispy chicken and fries with a free salad bar, harvester style. No alcohol was available sadly so I had to settle for a coke.

We got back just in time so Sam and I could watch WWE Monday night raw in preparation for Wrestlemania this weekend.

Tuesday is another travel day as we move on to Buffalo,NY just a few miles down the road from Niagara falls. Travel distance will be the same as Monday but it will be well worth it if the scenery is anything like it was then.
