Day 30 29/07/09 Cologne > Madelia 78miles

Left fairly early as i was nearby to a busy road so no point trying to grab extra sleep! Not much en route, 7miles between each town - the distance old steam trains on the railroad had to fill up water with. Wrote a few postcards which i am yet to send.. and grabbed lunch in the town of gaylord - probably filled with a fair few homophobes! Carried on battling with the wind until i reached madelia. Very odd guy in the motel wouldnt let me stay for the night only for the week. Wierder thing was that he wouldnt let me pay for the week knowing that i only wanted one night. Not sure what planet he came from. Ended up paying for quite a nice place to stay as there were thunderstorms due!
