Day 8: June 28th, Independence Missiouri and Salina/ Lindsborg, Kansas
 |
| The day began with one last visit to the Visitors Center with Mom & Dad, then some farewell froyo in downtown Independence. Addie, Dad, Niles, James, Rich, Mom with Ammon, and Heidi at the FroYo Place. |

A Happy-Sister moment
(we had several of these, which was one of the aims of the trip,
but shhh, don't tell the girls we noticed) |
We said good bye to Grandpa and Grandma and left from the yogurt shop and headed to Salina, Kansas around 11am. We stopped for lunch at the mall in Topeka, KS, then drove down to Lindsborg "Little Sweden" Kansas for about an hour before we checked into our hotel in Salina and let the kids swim. Below are some pictures around Lindsborg, with their awesome little Dala Horses.

| Love this one! |

| The girls with St. Lucy |

| We rented this cute little quadracycle to explore Lindsborg and the kids LOVED it. |
We stayed the night in Salina, then drove all the next day (Sunday, June 29, Day 9) through Nebraska to Custer, South Dakota where we stayed across the street from the Flintstones theme park. Monday (June 30, Day 10) we drove across Wyoming and Montana and got home around 5pm. It was so nice to be home...I don't think I've been so excited to back in my own house and routine since we went to Europe! What a relief. It was a WONDERFUL but draining vacation.
