Cape Cod Trip - Day 4
Started the day north of Nashville, so that meant we didn't have to worry about a lot of traffic... Ate breakfast near the hotel. Didn't get on the road until around 1130L. On I-65 all the way into Kentucky. Stopped to visit Mammoth Cave - a nice break from the heat! After that, we pressed north againn on I-65 - trying to avoid the traffic jams in Louisville and Indianapolis. We were pretty successful, too. After getting through Indy, we got on US-31. Stopped for dinner (KFC - an old favorite stopping place) in Kokomo, Indiana (2015L). Got gas soon after that. Made it to South Bend around 2145 and drove over to the Notre Dame campus. Nicky had never been there but has always wanted to see it since she saw "Rudy." Before looking for another hotel, we drove by the Morris Inn to see if they had any rooms. I would never have dreamed they would, but school was out for the year! We got a nice room that had a beautiful view of the Golden Dome. Nicky is VERY happy... (!!)
