Day 66
August 6th, 2007

The best days are often preluded by the best breakfasts. For breakfast we returned to the campus dining center and had a spectacular buffet breakfast. Once on the road it was a quick and beautiful 45 mile ride into Roanoke Virginia. For a lot of the ride we followed a small river as it wound its way through the mountain side. In Roanoke we are staying the the Hotel Roanoke which is possibly the nicest hotel I have ever stayed in. Once into town a few of us headed to the bike shop. I picked up some tubes to be prepared for the last stretch of the trip. In the evening we headed out to a local roller skating rink to skate it up with some fun people from the Down Syndrome Association of Roanoke. I quickly realized that I never really learned how to use roller skates and it showed. After making a fool of myself I headed to the ball pit to have some fun with the kids who decided not to skate. It was a lot of fun.
