Tour of the USA – Week 13

Well, How Did We Get Here? Miles, Feet Climbed, Maps & Profiles.

Previous updates described how we travelled from Seattle in Washington to Red Wing in Minnesota in the first 12 weeks of our adventure. Now find out where we went & what we did in Week 13! Hopefully picking a single photo to represent each day will refresh my mind when it comes to looking back on my adventure! I cheated this week & allocated Lazy Monday’s photo to Friday.

Saturday was all about crossing the Mississippi river twice & getting caught it an electrical storm. On Sunday we finally moved into Wisconsin for a few days, having done day trips there on Friday & Saturday! Monday was a lazy rest day, so I’ve allocated the photo to Friday. Tuesday we cycled quiet backroads & saw a tank, as well as having our first navigational challenge of the trip. Wednesday delivered us to Fremont, where we met Lin, Pat & Mike, as well as seeing a brilliant water skiing exhibition. Thursday we picked up a glorious tailwind into Manitowoc & on Friday we took the ferry across Lake Michigan & met Anders, John, Glady & Ed.

Another great week with some sightseeing, getting off the beaten track & making more friends on our Coast to Coast adventure.
