Day 2 - Council Bluffs, IA

Day 2 is kind of a repeat of day 1, except that when we stopped to eat lunch in a rest area, I made tuna salad, which had the cats doing little cat dances. Of course, I gave them about half the can. We are going to overnight in the back parking lot of another Harrah’s, but this time we are in Council Bluffs, IA. Council Bluffs is just across the Missouri River from Omaha. One of the wait staff in the buffet told us that the general manager of this hotel went to LSU. So, most of the guests are LSU fans who are here to watch them play in the College World Series.

One interesting thing is that quite a bit of the parking lot area next to the Missouri River is closed due to flooding. According to the security guard, part of the lot was flooded as recently as a week ago. The river is really running fast, but it is back in its banks.

Notice that there are no cars in the parking lot!!!
