JULY 6: RAPID CITY to SIOUX FALLS SD

Miles: 424

We drove across most of South Dakota today. We started off by getting donuts at Jerry's Donuts and Cakes; good stuff. About an hour east of Rapid City, we stopped at Wall Drug, the 'South of the Border' of the North. We had more fun here than I had expected. From there we continued to Pierre to visit the state capitol, tour the town and grab some lunch. We followed the Missouri River to Chamberlain and got back on the interstate. The Corn Palace in Mitchell was, well, corny but a nice break. We arrived in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in time to check-in, get dinner and tour the town. We ate dinner at Phillips Avenue Diner in downtown. Before going back to the hotel, we visited Falls Park which we enjoyed quite a bit. The weather was good all day. Tomorrow we will have another long day as we start to head south.
