We survived day 1! All the kids were great little travelers, including Megan! We left Mandan by 8:30 and arrived at Livingston, MT at 9 pm. We took our time, stretching our legs at New Salem (for a geocache), Medora, and Billings. The boys got t-shirts in Medora, thanks to Eric's bloody nose-it was easier to buy a new shirt than dig through the back of the van for the suitcase. We were all excited to go to Zoo Montana in Billings, and were disgusted to learn in the parking lot, outside of the zoo, that the zoo closes at 4 pm (it was 4:15). Thankfully a local who was also with disappointed children directed us to a fun playground, where the kids burned energy for an hour before dining at Denny's. The boys were super excited to see mountains for the first time on the way from Billings to Livingston. Megan was thrilled to see cows. We are all tired and ready for bed, and excited for what tomorrow will bring!
