We Took a trip to Florida in March. WE drive and stop at every state.The kids watch a dvd.Seeing different States can be really nice.We travel every year.We stop at the Nascar stores.In Washiton Dc you can see the cherry blossoms.You can take a tour to the whit house.It relaxes me when we travel every year.There is no fighting.Everyone gets along.We stop in NC. to see our Aunt.They get no snow . they only get ice storms.We went to Disney world for the first time.It only takes 24 hours to get to Florida.The only time it takes longer is when you have a kid that has the flue.That happened to us two ears ago.It took us 5 days to get home.But just traveling and stoping to see everythng is worth it.I always count down till our next trip.I love doing stuff with my family.We try to get something from each State.We bring our own food with us. We sometimes stop at a restruant and eat. It is better to eat on the go.So what we do is grab a pillow and blanket and sit back and injoy the rid while my husband drives.That is why I don't drive so I can look at nice stuff go by.We can not beleive how nice some stuff is.We stop and get motels sometimes. They are realy nice and cozy.The people there are always nice to you.What we do is stop at a traveling rest stop and get a book with coupons for motels in it.They are always helpful.I always get infomation and flyers everywhere we stop.They can be very helpful.So try to drive so you can see alot of stuff.It is worth it.If I was you I would travel once a year or more.It is the best thing to do beats flying.When you fly you miss alot.That is why I never fly.I say I like to keep my feet on the ground.I don't like the feeling of flying.That is why they have gravity.If you were ment to fly everywhere there would be no cars.On aplane now you can not do anything. You cann't smoke.They don't serve you anymore.I love to look at every little thing. My kids think it is awsome and cool.I have a map of every place we been.It is a good thing to do with kids.They love pinning taxs on the map.That is why we drive instead of flying.You do not miss athing driving.You do flying.I love to drive and hate to drive.Remember always drive.
