RAGBRAI 2023 Day 3.1 – Quick update
This is just a short update from yesterday.
I forgot to mention in the day’s posting that Leah and I had seen a drone flying high above us during our ride. Later John found the following picture on the RAGBRAI Facebook page. I absolutely love this picture!
The picture is taken from a drone flying directly over the riders. What you are seeing are the shadows of the riders rather than the actual riders. The little “blobs” at the bottom of each shadow are the actual riders. How cool is that?!
Also, Leah and I did get showers yesterday. In the general campground, there are shower trucks. For $8 ($10 if you don’t have your own towel), you get a little room with a private shower that removes all the sweat and grime you collected on your skin for the day allowing to you feel like a human again. These showers are worth every penny!
I’ll admit that there is little improvement in my looks between the two pictures (other than my expressions), but I feel like a completely pampered royal in the “after” pic!
That’s it for this quick update.
