D&R Canal Trekkers Biking With A Good Groove



This morning we had breakfast at the Homewood Suites hotel that included waffles, oatmeal and fresh fruit. After our safety check, we hopped back on the path for a hot, sweaty ride toward Pennsylvania.

Even with the hot weather, we're beginning to bike with a good groove. Not even the few LARGE hills we encountered, could keep us from biking to the top. Still worth it for the ride down :) just ask Eian and teen Trekker Jamie who rode down twice just to ride back up!

We've noticed some changes on the trail from dirt paths to gravel to pavement. Today the path passed by a cute little town as well.

When we reached Yardley, PA, we shopped at a local store for lunch taking our time and enjoying the air conditioning.

Moving onto a nearby park, we ate lunch and jumped through the sprinkler. Reaching the Hampton Inn Hotel, we rested for a bit before jumping in the pool.

After deciding on Indian food at a nearby restaurant for dinner, we parked our bikes and walked to the restaurant. The food was delicious and Isaac used his charm to get an extra basket of naan...

Back at the hotel, we appreciated the countryside and lack of lights to see the stars. After reviewing the day, we decided to go to bed early in order to wake up earlier for our big 29 mile ride tomorrow.
