A Small Setback

We got to drive like Englishmen today!

So after the waffles we accidentally took the wrong interstate. We
realized we were heading toward Florida instead of New Orleans about
an hour after the mistake. Rather than double back north to Atlanta,
we decided it would be more adventurous and interesting to travel west
on smaller roads and highways to get back to the interstate that we
were supposed to take. It was a little stressful because my iPhone
didn't get any reception in most of the area, but it turned out to be
totally worth it! We got to see things we never would have seen from
the interstate like the small town of Meansville and a kid popping a
sideways wheelie on an ATV! We also saved on gas and time because the
speed limit was lower and we traveled a shorter distance than doubling
back. All in all the mistake set us back 45 minutes, but I think it
was worth it since we got to see more interesting things in Georgia.
