Our journey today began when we began searching for a Great Harvest Bread so that our breakfast would be provided by their delicious selection of baked goodness. We patrolled around for a goodly amount of time until we gave up and searched again on Google, only to find that the store we were searching for did not exist in the real world, only in Google Map's imagination. Failing to secure free bread, we went south in search of free cheese. We came upon New
Glarus, America's Little Switzerland. We managed to find some free cheese and wine samples and proceeded to head south toward Monroe, where we again had some free cheese. (Sorry we missed you Todd. We didn't see your note until we had already left town. Feel free to let us know how your trip goes though.)

Cheese cow in Monroe.
Pleasant
Prairie was today's highlight; we got to visit the Jelly Belly Factory, take a tour and we also got some free candy! (And free hats.)

We are now in Illinois, the land of Lincoln where we await the wonder that this new state offers.
Haha great hanging out with you guys this afternoon and hope to see you tonight... if I get my homework done :) We'll be praying for your trip and checking up with y'all on the blog till you get back home. BTW, had a HUGE nostalgic moment looking at the pics of you at the Dinosaur Park in Rapid City, spent a week there in 2005 and thought those dinos were the best thing there :)
