Ok I have been lurking on this post for months! My family and I are driving from Albuquerque, New Mexico to Caribbean Beach Resort. We have a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country. I'm planning on taking I-40 to Amarillo, then I-20 E to I-10 E. So basically Albuquerque to Amarillo to Dallas to Shreveport, La to Jackson, Ms to Mobile, Al to Tallahassee then on down to Orlando. I'm thinking of stopping in Shreveport since that's the half way point. It's about 26 hours one way. My DH and I are able to drive, so 2 drivers.
This is our first long road trip and I'm hoping I have everything covered, new brakes, new tires, check up on the van, etc... Am I forgetting anything? Reading this post makes me feel pretty confident but then talking to everyday people think I'm crazy and I start wondering if I'm forgetting anything! But with airfare, this is more cost effective, plus everyone should go on a long road trip at least once in their life! I think the kids will learn a lot! We leave next Tuesday! Thank you all so much in advance!
