day 83




today we all got up and packed our bikes to head out to grab some breakfast; hans biked with us for a bit and dropped us off at a restaurant. we grabbed some french toast and eggs. we rode from new haven to new london so it was a shortish ride about 45 miles. it was nice to have matt biking with us; we stopped off at a cool farmers market to eat some blueberries and a huge melon! we chatted with the farmers for a good amount then headed up to new london. when we rolled into new london, we stopped at the pier and a girl came up to us and chatted with us. she worked on a sail boat and she gave us a tour of the boat, it was great. we then grabbed some dinner at a seafood place and waited for my brother, ian, to pick us up and take us up to hartford. ian rolled up and greeted us and helped us load up our bikes/gear into his truck. he drove us up to his house, but we hit some traffic which slowed us down. ian had a good time heckling me about my facial hair but we still had a good time catching up. we got to ian's house and he had a fresh pizza waiting for us to devour, it was glorious. he gave us each a bar of soap and we all got cleaned up, cause we needed it. we then had to play some mario cart wii, which i dominated but we did a team competition and we had a rough time but finally won! we were so bushed we went to bed.
