Road trip to South Dakota

What is it about South Dakota, worth driving more then 1000 miles (1600 km) round trip? Well first of all it is an easy enough drive as most of the roads are straight like drawn with a ruler (which is really hard to find in Europe). Secondly I could go on about the beautiful countryside of South Dakota but that is actually only half of the story. There is much more to see then some rolling green hills and small lakes with surrounding forests which reminded me a lot of my hometown back in Germany. The following posts will bring light into the darkness why my roommate Justin and I chose this destination for a jolly road trip up north. So stay tuned to read more about Rocks, Caves and a good old friend from Ireland we met against all odds where the Buffalo roams ;-)
