Stuck in Wall

So today is day two of our trek out west. We are currently residing in Wall, South Dakota for the night. Our first night we stayed in Des Moines, Iowa which is funny because that was the same night I watched the US gymnastic athlete, Shawn Johnson, win silver...and I got to watch that from her hometown! I thought that was pretty awesome. We didn't see much yesterday so it was kind of boring but we did get good gas milage. haha.

Today though we did stop and see a few things. Our first sight to see was the Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota. That place is awesome! The whole outside of the building is decorated with corn! It's really cool because they create multicolored murals with it. Our second stop was in Wall, which is where I am now, to see the famous Wall Drug pharmacy store. It was pretty cool but all of the gift shops ended up being the same stuff. We also ate at this little cactus cafe place and the food was basically...horrible to say the least. It probably wont sit right with us tonight. :/
