In the early afternoon we are back on our bikes and start pedaling backroads to Jasper. Jasper, as well as many Indiana small towns, has a good library. Even if the city's official visitor center is closed (as it is during the times that tourists usually hang around), the library is the second best option to seek for information about available accommodation. This is how it works out this time, too.
We find a hospitable and pleasant Bed & Breakfast place just in downtown Jasper, Powers Inn. The lady of the house prepares us a delicious breakfast with German pancakes, bacon and berry yoghurt.
Back to the previous night: The only thing people tend to know
about Jasper is Schnitzelbank. There we enjoy
more or less exotic dinner including frog legs with German and some Finnish
beer. The southern Indiana, especially Jasper and its surroundings, is
heavily influenced by German culture to the extent of German street
names, German-American monetary and insurance companies, and finally,
good selection of beers.
