1. What are 3 must haves for a long road trip?
Well of course I have to bring Red Bull...no Red Bull is a deal breaker!
2. What was the destination of your most recent road trip?
I packed up the kids (SANS Hubby, he had to work) and drove down to So-Cal to spend a few days in Long Beach visiting la familia. In all honesty, I should have stayed home! That trip was a disaster and a half.
3. What do you miss most about home when on a trip?
My fridge! I hate not having access to my food. When you're allergic to EVERYTHING it gets tough eating on the road. Plus it keeps my Red Bull cold.
4. What is the furthest you have traveled on a road trip?
Well I've driven from Cali to Texas, from Cali to Arkansas, and from Cali to Illinois....so whichever one is farther. Have I told you I suck at geography? And I'm too lazy to calculate mileage.
5. Will you "stop for the largest ball of twine, etc" or are you a "hurry and get there" road tripper?
Mehhh...it really depends on where I'm going and who I'm with. I love to stop and take in the sights and explore new areas. Plus I kind of love shopping at random little gas stations. Weird, I know...BUT with kids in the car, sometimes its just better to hurry and get there! That's what she said.

I am totally with you on #5.
ReplyDeleteI'm also about to do another super long road trip to MI for the reunion this week. But I'm not a fan of red bull :-( - Guess Dr. Pepper's just going to have to cut it.
Good call on the comfy clothes!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely agree on the comfy clothes...and if other people in the car like the AC blasting, I also need a blanket!
ReplyDeleteI love going into gas station convenience stores and poking around to see what they've got! One of the best parts of road trips!!
Ha ha...that's what she said...also duct tape! BRILLIANT!! My kids don't have a DVD player...I know, some crazy form of child abuse, so they travel the old fashioned way. Now that I think about it, perhaps its more parental abuse...I gotta get me a DVD player for the car!!
ReplyDeleteComfy clothes is a must, sweatpants and a t-shirt, with a hoody on standby.
ReplyDeleteSnacks, comfy clothes, activities--be they books, music, games, DVDs--are all necessary to travel--especially with kiddos.
ReplyDeleteGotta bring some Slim Jims too.
ReplyDeleteugh i hate when road trips are a disaster. i've had a few of them and oh boy they make you never want to take one again! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI totally forgot comfy clothes! That's a good one!
ReplyDeleteLOL that's what she said, never gets old. ever.
ReplyDeletewe plan on making that drive from Cali to Arkansas someday, i know its a loooooong one. that's what she said.
see...never gets old. ever.
comfy clothes that's a good one
ReplyDeleteForgot about the comfy clothes! I'm with on the shopping random gas stations and stuff. I think it's fun!
ReplyDeleteI suck at geography too. I forgot all about the comfy clothes- definitely a must! When we drove to Alaska I would have the kids shower or bath at night and dress in sweats so I could drag their tired butts out to the car at 4 am ready to roll.
ReplyDeleteMy last road trip was to Denver last year. We used to raod trip it everywhere when I was a kid and we always stopped to look at "stuff" along the way!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah comfy clothes! That one did not occur to me when I was answering the questions! Very important stuff!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah comfy clothes...like "one step up from pajamas" comfy ;) I know it's a toss up between Arkansas and Illinois being the furthest...gah, now I wanna google map it to find out!
