So this Saturday was a repeat of the last. I woke with a headache and the girls constant bickering was making it worse. Something had to be done. I gave them an ultematum, they do something outside on their own or I throw them outside against their will. They decided finally that they wanted to go on another bike ride and they wanted to go on the same bike ride. I think I got played. I found out later that they didn't really want to go for a ride but they did want to go to McDonald's and play in the river like last week.
We set out and made it to Two Moon Park where we stopped for a bit to let Evie play with her Strider bike. Then we headed over to a small park in the Heights that had a play ground and small swing set. I did finally cave after Sydney's constant nagging and whining about McDonald's. Man, I wish that place wasn't so close to the trail!
All said, the girls did pretty well even with Sydney lagging behind, she may be coming down with something. We logged 12 1/2 miles today. Not exactly the 30 miles I want them to be able to do for this summer's trip but we'll get there. I just hope their interest in biking isn't based solely off McDonald's ice cream treats.

Maybe not their sole interest, but I'm betting McDonalds plays a pretty solid lead. Must take after Grandma! :)
