Day 2 Sunday 12 June 2011
We gained an hour yesterday, so we put it to use by automatically waking up early and getting on the road sooner than expected. Last time we went this way we had to get up early to miss the Chicago traffic - today we missed the Chicago morning rush hour because it was Sunday - but we both wondered where so many people were going on a Sunday morning.
Sharon insisted that we stop at the outlet mall near Williamsburg IA, so we did - the biggest we have enver seen. We hit about 20% of the stores before we had to get on our way again; but we both enjoyed it.
We got to Des Moines in plenty of time, set up and got interent access (but it was sporadic). I went into panic mode when I could not get TSN on the satelite and could not find the hockey game on CBC; sent an urget message to both sons asking how to stream the game - got a quick reply from Jamie with a long explanantion with pointers and full instructions and a P.S. at the bottom: the games is tomorrow night...... DOH
