dvczerfs -- No Lime Green Mickey Head in a window? You aren't ready for the road until you put a LGMH in there somewhere so other DISsers can spot you on the road.
the windows are tinted, you cant even see my dvc throw across the back seat!! just in the back alone i have a dvc member sticker, old key west sticker. mm magnet and an mm lic. plate frame. disney is going to charge me if i put anything else on the van.
we are most likely going to trade it in next year. with dd out of high school, it dont look like she will be going as much with us and we wont need all the room. dw is looking at the lexus rx350. ill have to find a disney freak to buy it, i dont think they will take it as a trade with everything on it. i told her if we get the rx350, the only thing going on it is the dvc lic. plate in the front, and the dvc mem. sticker on the back window. ill let you know how i make out.
We leave in 11 days and 23 hours!! It's finally getting closer.
We are taking 77s from Cleveland straight to Florida. We are leaving at 10pm on a friday night so we won't be seeing much until daylight. Can anyone offer insight on places to take breaks. Our 2 DD's will sleep the first half hopefully. We won't be staying overnight anywhere we just want to stop and maybe take some stretch breaks along the way.
Has anyone taken this route before? What type of driving conditions will we face? We will be driving on the weekend so I hope this helps us avoid traffic delays but I am not sure. Also where are the best places to stop and let the kids run around or even stop and do some shopping.
We aren't on a time schedule because we had originally planned not to be in Florida until Sunday evening but work schedules changed and now we have a whole extra day!
but 78 will take you directly to 81. 22 is the old "highway" and 78 is more of a "bypass". good old dutch won.!!! i was just there last year, our dd had a dance comp at the host across the street. i plaid golf at the host. you correct, the first leg will most likely be the busiest. have a safe trip.
love love the pics.. too cute!! looks like lots of room in there. they are blankets on the floor is that for sleeping? only 3 more days for us and we r out of here. cant say that I am not getting nervous. I am not a road trip girl so we shall see how I do and hopefully the hubby and I arrive there and back and are still married
going to florida is the only time my wife dont tell me how to drive. you will be fine, just go with the punches and relax. thats what dw tells me, reeeeelaaaaax. it makes the trip alot easier and we have a blast, even with out our dd. youll be fine.
17 more days to go!!!!!MM1 was washed inside and out on sunday and gas tank was filled!! hes ready for battle!!!
AND THIS YEAR, WE HAVE A NEW PASSENGER!!!!
The good thing is we didn't unpack all the Disney-only stuff from last trip, so we're halfway there without even trying.
CRAZY!!) What way do you guys recommend? I wanna get there as quickly as possible! Im thinking my DS will be fine from 7pm to about 10am then we will need to take an hour break so he can stretch his legs! Im thinking thatll get me to NC. Hopefully Im not totally crazy lol! 
Awesome! Is that a cooler I see in there? You can't possibly have a cooler packed now!
I LOVE the new passenger! We still have all that clean-up to do to the Minnie-Van and more! But we did start organizing all the matching T-shirts yesterday and made some good lists.
BC - we'll be sporting the Father's Day Mickey antenna topper for this drive, at least in the beginning. DD bought it for her Daddy last year and it has yet to be displayed! Usually we have the classic Minnie topper with the bow - matches the red van!
SO MUCH going on with school, Girl Scouts and stuff - the trip is sneaking up on me! My binder's ready to go, but we're not packed, we got a LOT to do before we leave. PANIC!!!!!!!!!
the coolers in there but there nothing in it. we have eveything in the fridge in the garage and the ice packs are in the freezer in the garage. if you look behind the cooler, youll see a box, thats the food box. there are a few things in it but the rest goes in the morning we leave. i also take a blanket and toss it over the box and the cooler, just to keep it cooler. the black ontop of the cooler is velcro. theres velcro on the bottom of the dvd player so you just stick the dvd player to the cooler and it wont move around. some trips the dvd player dont come out but we take it and the dvds just in case.
