We set off for La Grande at 8am, with two stops planned: the main one for a Starbucks top-up near Boise.

Another early waking for me and Vick managed a good hour or so longer. We were not in a rush this morning.

We were both starving when we got back from our bike ride, so after a quick shower back at the hotel, we walked across the parking lot to the Black Bear Diner.

We get used to the early mornings in the first week or so of being in the US. To be honest, we love it.

We had a long nap when we had settled into our room and then we talked about what we wanted to do here. We decided to head down to the Visitors’ Centre and take in the views.

We were just under halfway to Twin Falls. It was a long old drive today, so the last (just over) half of the trip we decided to split into two.

We left Richfield at about 6am and what a perfect start to the day! We saw the sun rise over the mountains as we drove north.

I was up at around 2am and Vick lasted much longer than me. We both had a secondary nap and woke at 4:15am, which we thought was very timeline since Liverpool was due to play.
