More of Day 13

So the rest of our day wasn't too exciting. We stopped along the side of the road in Idaho to watch the sunset and take pictures. However, we were not aware that we would be attacked by a legion of flying ants! They were everywhere! On our backs, in our hair. Kind of gross. We brushed ourselves off and once in van, spent a couple of minutes swatting at the few stragglers that made it inside. Little jerks.

We ate dinner at an okay restaurant that had TV's so we caught up on a little Olympic watching. Food and a chance to run around outside (just a little) seemed to lift everyone's spirits, and we drove a few more miles to a Motel 6 where we slept. Pretty relaxing day off. I think my favorite thing about sleeping in hotels (besides waking up feeling refreshed) is watching TV at night with Nicole, Meg, and Rob and making fun of it all. My roommate always laughs at me because I'm always laughing at/making fun of things on TV that were never intended to be funny, so it was fun/hilarious to be in the company of like-minded TV viewers.

So yeah. Relaxing day. drive. eat. sleep. repeat. But it was nice none the less.
