After a good nights sleep we packed up and headed to the grocery store to pick up some cereal and milk for breakfast. They had bananas on sale too, so we got a bunch of those too. There were nice tables in the grocery store so we got to eat inside again. Afterwards, we headed to the visitor center for a while. We walked around the sign forest for a little bit. It was really neat because we saw quite a few signs from places around the country that we had ridden through either on this tour or on prior tours. Joey got a flat tire at the end of the day yesterday, so he worked on fixing that too. We spent a good portion of the day at the rec center again. It was only $3 each for a shower and use of all the facilities from 5 pin bowling to Squash. It was a lot of fun. I enjoyed the bowling because I have never played 5 pin before and it was a little weird using the tiny bowling ball. We tried calling our host again just by the chance that they were home today. Joe was able to get a hold of them, but they said they had just gotten home that morning and wouldn't be able to host us after all because they had too much to do. It would have been easier if they had just said they wouldn't have been able to host us when we first contacted them, it would have saved a lot of time. We were able to watch another episode of Breaking Bad before we went to the store to pick up some things for dinner. We got some steak and stuff to make noodles and then headed back to the picnic table outside of the community center. We had a very relaxing rest day and I was happy that the funny pain in my chest was starting to feel a little better. We headed back to our little camp spot in the woods again and played some more games on the tablet before bed. By the time we rode around town to the different places all day we ended up riding 2.44 miles. Our next big destination is Whitehorse, but we plan to take our time getting there because we are still so ahead of schedule.
