No we didn't take a wrong turn and find ourselves in Mexico - this is south of the North Carolina border. What started as a truck stop to sell items that were prohibited in North Carolina and legal "South of the Border" is now a bizarre roadside attraction.
At Wall Drug in South Dakota Kristen acquired a Jackalope stuffed animal. She couldn't resist giving a hug to the "Jack" statue.
The place is full of unique statues, carnival rides (closed for the winter) and a gator land-sorry no love of reptiles here. The ambiance was fun, but we all agreed our dinner at the South of the Border Cafe was the worst meal of the whole trip. Still worth the stop, and we won't forget it anytime soon.
