While there are a number of enjoyable activities that are unique to the coasts, there are some seriously interesting places to stop en route through the middle of the country. Want to see the world's biggest beagle? It's in Idaho. How about the world's biggest roll of twine? That's in Kansas.
Checking out some of these places will not only make pretty sweet Instagram opps, but it's also so strangely satisfying to have bragging rights about seeing the world's largest catsup bottle.
