Starting from Los Angeles.... 2 weeks ago

to Miami, to New York, then back to L.A.



Well... 8 months ago

there’s a slight possibility I might be able to ride across country. Wouldn’t be able to drive, but I still might get to see a bunch of states I haven’t been to before. I need to make it happen! I would like to do it within the next month. I think it would be an awesome experience.

I would like to use summer vacation to drive from Phila to San Francisco or Napa Valley with my two daughters. I wanted drive there and then fly back (I don’t think I can handle a round trip). What is the best way to a plan this reasonably?

Hmm, just how long does it take to drive across the whole country? What about sleeping arrangements along the way? I suppose it’s not really feasible to ride a motorcycle across the whole country, kekeke.



NY to CA 11 months ago

In a uhaul with a husband, 2 year old in diapers, 2 dogs and a cat. Whew! I would never want to do that again in a million years! It would be fun to do it again some time under better conditions and with time to meander around and explore.

i drove cross-country in 4.5 days, via I-80, which was far too fast. if you have the time, i suggest taking two weeks to make the trip. you could plan destinations, but its the quirky, random stops that you remember the most.

i think Seattle would be a good destination point…

I recently drove from SC to MA, across NY and down through WV…. it was long… very long.

and i think there should be more drivers involved than 2.



Um... 14 months ago

It seems like it would have been more doable 10, maybe even 5 years ago and while I still think that the experience would be great, sitting in a car for long periods of time is not that appealing for me.

Since I live in NYC I don’t drive. When I am on vacation and public transportation sucks, I relegate driving to my husband. I have road rage (maybe influenced by taxi drivers) and get car sick after long periods of time.

I’ve driven along the California coast and had a great time singing (loudly and badly), stopping for pics, and playing random word games. So, I might still have it in my to do this- but for now it isn’t a goal.
