Back in the 70's the whole family would load up and trek from NJ to Florida to visit my aunt and uncle.
Along the way we would ......
Stay at Holiday Inn's ---- Best Western as second choice
Gotta hit South of the Border --- what's up with North and South Carolina being compared to the Mexican border ?
Stuckies !!! ------- If you went on a roadtrip and didn't hit Stuckies you didn't experience the greatness of an overpriced breakfast and to-go salted nuts
Stopping at Pigglie Wigglie --- to us Yanks, just the name cracked us up
Entering Georgia and seeing what we thought were palm trees ... Have no idea what they were but looked like giant Yucca plants.
Pecan art ------ back in the day people made and sold sculptors out of pecan shells to tourists... Also weaved baskets.
Entering Florida --- get ready for a very long boring ride.
Jacksonville ? ............ na, nothing to see there.
Kennedy Space Center ? .......... we'll hit it on the way home.
Thomas Edison Museum (also Fountain of Youth) .... most boring stop ever
Finally arrived at Aunt Mary's
All I can think about is the boring ride back.
Tell me about YOUR classic road trips
