Where should we go?

After much debate, we finally firmed up our route. We will pretty much be driving every mile of I-90 across the northern portion of the lower 48 states. Not included in the map at the link are all of the minor spots we are looking forward to.

We will of course be going through Canada, which the girls are very excited about. This will be their first trip to a foreign country. They had lots of fun getting their passports, although they did not understand why they were not supposed to smile for the photos:-)

Deciding which things to see was actually a bit of a challenge. When John and I first sat down to plan we just brainstormed and wrote down all of the places we wanted to go. Well as you can imagine the list got long pretty quickly. So we had to whittle it down some. Oh well, guess we will have to save those places for our next trip!

  1. Finally remembered to check out the blog! Anyway, in case you have any doubts (which I doubt you do!) you are going to have a fabulous trip! We always make an extended vacation out of our moves covering way more ground than is ever necessary! That's the only way to do it! For example, we moved from Alaska to Indiana by way of California, Alabama, and North Carolina... not exactly a direct route, but we loved every minute of it! I have been to all but three of the points on your map, so I can definitely give your itinerary a big thumbs up! As much as we're going to miss having you around, I must say I'm quite jealous of your adventure! Enjoy!!
