Keeping costs pretty much on an even keel, we’ve managed to raise our average daily costs only by a couple dollars despite some expensive bus tickets and jaunting across 620 miles this week, to $28 a day.

And now, on for the rest of The Count for the week between 1/8/2008 and 1/14/2008, where a the patron saint of travel should have been involved…
