Day 5: Kansas, but not our Kansas!
December 22, 2014 But then, only one Kansas is our Kansas ;)
Tough day! But it also seemed to go by most quickly. Every other day I was falling asleep after only a few hours of driving - but today, we went from Denver to Tulsa in one shot.
It's around a ten hour drive in theory, but somewhere in this trip our dear dog has developed a case of diarrhea. So we stopped. Often. All in all our drive time was around 14 hours, counting some hiccups with tolls and getting briefly lost in Oklahoma.
Still, it went by quickly, and a hotel bed has never looked so good!
Denver was amazing, I think most all of my favorite people would love it there!
Kansas, by contrast, is flat. Really, really flat. But! Big bonus points for the surprisingly awesome burrito, and the truly excellently maintained freeways.
Oklahoma, from what little I've seen of it in the dark, is very not flat, and seems nice! Although the Toll Road situation could use work... We were blindsided by one automated booth that required exact change, in coins (!)
My eyes are crossing, so I'll cut this short, tomorrow is our last day with the U-haul, and our last snippet of this mad journey. We're very excited to be relaxing with family starting tomorrow night!
