I haven't seen the movie so I don't know if they give the name of the town but if you read the book it starts with the perron family living in Cumberland RI then moving to that house in burrillville ri.

I didn't even realize there was a book. I will have to look into this.

This thread is going down any minute now. We're beyond 250 pages at this point.

Hmmm. I'll have to check out that option as well...I'm not sure exactly how far New Castle is from me.

I had to drive to dover for a family reunion so I timed it while I was heading in that direction. I just timed it to the exit off 95. I looked at the map and it doesn't look like its far from the exit.

Why do I feel like I'm the only Canadian on here?

 

[ddeschon]

If we drive it is around 15 1/2 hrs. But we are looking to fly this year because my 11, and 9 year old said they won't be able to stand the 1 year old for that long!

 

[KNovacovschi]

I can't wait to see it...my kids keep telling me they want to see it. They're too young I'm sure lol

How old are your kids? I took my 15 yr old and her friend and they were scared poopless. It was kind of funny though cause I made my DD jump and scream at a non scary part. I'm a horrible mom.

Just wondering for the drivers on here, how long does it take you to get to WDW? We drive 10 hours.

We drive 19 hours each way. We split it up, 13 hours one day and 6 the next. It's the journey, right??

Yes I'm in WV between Charleston and Huntington.

I lived not far from there in Ironton, Oh.

I am originally from Indiana, but have lived in Ohio for almost 13 years. Though, I do live in Indiana about 40+ days a year. going back for 4 or 5 days not this week, but the next. One last trip home before the kids start school.

I'm a displaced Hoosier too! I went the other direction, though and now live in Illinois.

I'm wondering the same thing so I keep posting.

Do your kids sleep in the car??

We can never do that, for some reason my kids NEVER sleep in the car, crazy right?? So we have to stop and spend the night so everyone is well rested, otherwise...

 

[plutospalforever]

Will we get a big, red WARNING
when this thing is closed??????

 

[babydoll65]

Me too!

Testing....testing....closed yet?


I'm impressed by all of the drivers. I hate being cooped up in the car for more than 4-5 hours at a time.....cant do it. Any drive of 10+ makes me start to wonder if the destination is worth it!

You guys are all crazy to drive. But then again I could be thinking that as it would take approx. 19hrs and 53 mins straight through, according to google maps. But with my DH driving and traffic realistically it would probably take about 24 hours.

Hoosier here too, South Bend (Go Irish!), now Fort Wayne!
