Wakeeney KOA, WaKeeney, KS

We got up early the next day again to drive the rest of the way through Missouri and most of the way through Kansas. We stopped at a KOA in WaKeeney, KS. They had a pool, but we didn't have time to get in because we had to do laundry and the kids swimsuits were in the dirty clothes. We went to the playground instead. You can see how hot it was by how red the kids faces were in these pictures. It was ridiculously hot in Kansas. I guess I never realized it got that hot there. It was 112 and it wasn't much better at first in the RV since we can't run the AC while we're driving. They had an Ice Cream Social each night, so we got the kids some ice cream for being good in the truck all day and to help them cool off a little faster.

All the sites in the RV park were drive through sites which makes it easier to get in and out especially when you're only staying for one night. 

When we started the day we weren't sure where exactly we would stay that night and ended up driving a bit farther than we had planned so the next day would be a shorter drive. There weren't a ton of options on our route, so we had to decide if we wanted to drive a shorter day or a bit longer. Everyone was doing well and with how hot it was, we were hoping if we stopped a little later, it wouldn't be as hot. With the hot temps though, it didn't really matter what time we stopped. It was extremely hot either way! 

This park seemed more dedicated to one night stays than any long term camping and was almost completely empty by the time we left the next morning. It was nice and clean and the laundry room was nice since we really needed to wash the boys clothes.
