203 miles down, 797 to go! The first two days were tough, but not too bad. I had a bit of a late start yesterday, and I had two flat tires today, so it's been 12 hours on the road each day.
I'm staying in a house in Alexandria, LA tonight with the family of a friend. It'll be great to sleep in a bed. I'm already stuffed full of gumbo, and had a hot shower. Little comforts feel so good.
This ride is in support of Typhoon Haiyan relief in the Philippines, where I served as a Peace Corps Response Volunteer 2011-2012. To make a direct, person-to-person donation to my host family in Calbayog City, or to survivors in Guiuan where the storm made landfall, please click the 'Donate' button in the right column. PayPal and credit cards accepted. I have included donation links for aid organizations providing relief as well. -Kyle
