What games do you play on the way to WDW? I don't mean board games, Nintendo, etc... the old fashioned stuff.

We still keep track of license plates. Our rules: We have a WORD table we print out before we leave. The states are down the side and then the columns are labeled CARS and TRUCKS. If you can drive it with your current drivers license, it is a CAR. If you need a CDL, it is a truck. Travel trailers or U-Haul type trailers count as cars... cars/trucks on car haulers don't count at all.

I play the MPG game with my truck.

I've got all kinds of fancy/schmancy MPG stuff on my truck. Average MPG, miles to empty, and a real time indicator that tells me fuel economy at that particular time. I'm constantly flipping between those three things to see how I can eek out more than 13 MPG pulling the camper :-)

My built in navigation also has a pretty accurate "how soon will I arrive" clock on it, so I also play with that at different speeds to see when I'll arrive at the Fort :-)

We count campers.

In the old days we use to count VW bugs.

We used to take along Mom's piano books and sing!:cool1: We also had the old fashioned travel bingo with things we would see along the way. The hard one to get was the one with the outhouse on it!:lmao:

Where'd you put the piano?

That's the only reason we brought my big, strong brother along! Hey, piano's have wheels, don't they?:rotfl:
