Legs 4 & 5 - staying in Lawrenceville

We did a "fly by to continue" at the end of leg 4 so we did not stop in Kalamazoo. Thanks to all the volunteers in Kalamazoo. We are now in Lawrenceville, IL and have decided to spend the night here. Team 15, our friends from Eastern PA 99s are also here. We are going to go out to dinner.

Started the day with some Fruit Loops!

Took a last minute photo of the stop chairs in Jeffersonville. Thank you ladies!

The terrain is looking a little different on these two legs.

Some of the teams pose for a photo for the local paper in Lawrenceville.

Teams 15, 35 and 52 went to dinner at Applebes.

While we were there,three more team came in. That makes six teams staying here.

On the way home from dinner, we found three more teams. That makes 9.

As we approached the hotel, we found one more team. So at least 10 teams are here tonight! Good night everyone, have a good night and safe racing tomorrow.

Leg 3 - Connellsville, PA to Jeffersonville, IN

No inflight pictures for leg 3

Lots of food in Jeffersonville, IN. Yes, that is a chocolate fountain! 

They are close to Louisville so there was a big Kentucky theme.

They even had airplane cookies with our numbers. Note that #35 is on top, just like,we will,be at the end if the race .

Even decorated snack bags!

This is Louise from the Kentucky Blue Grass chapter of the 99s. She gave us a ride to and from our hotel. Thanks Louise!!
