Idaho

Well, this post maybe should just be renamed the panhandle. As potato lovers we were itching to get to this state only to discover that the biggest potato-producing county in the US is actually in Washington? Fail.

Coeur D'Alene, however, is one of the hidden coolest cities in America. Considered more hipster than its "sister city" Spokane, CD'A is a small but very happenin' place. We ate dinner on the waterfront at Bonsai, a delicious Mongolian BBQ place (can't you tell we were a little sick of American food?) We walked along the two main streets, both of which were packed with restaurants and fun stores. The toy store in CD'A is worth a visit to this city alone: let's just say they have an ugly doll in the window the size of metropolitan Cincinnati.
