4:30 rise and shine and get moving! It was shortly after 5 when we were pulling
out. All babies were awake and asking
for a movie. No one was hungry yet and
we were all anxious to get started!
7:30 Gas and potty stop!
Wouldn’t you know the one we find in the middle of no where is under
remodel and we have the privilege of using their Porta-Potties! Lol We
decided to drive down through “Lousy”-ana so we would be along the coast for
the rest of the trip. I think we may go
back a different way just bc.
8:30 Breakfast!
Woohoo, found a Cracker Barrel!
Love that place! Kirsten wanted
floppy bacon but it came out too floppy!
lol so she didn’t want it but
Keegan decided he wanted it but he likes crispy bacon! We sent it back and it came back to us crispy
alright! lol He didn’t want the “black” parts so I ate
them! Mmmm. J
9:30 back on the road again.
Babies are listening to Charlotte’s Web book on CD and the three olders
are working on math. I take this time to
go through pics from my camera so it will be empty for vacay photos! Had a few pit stops a long the way, just
traveling on. Crocheted some on Honey’s
blanket I’m making for him.
1:30 Lunch! Babies
are hungry. Charlotte’s web ended and
movies began. Chris and I want Arby’s
and the other kiddos want McDonald’s.
Since we are pulling the RV, no drive-throughs. Honey waited in Silver while I ran in and got
food in both places. The littles were
super excited to get Mario toys with their happy meals and Kayson carried his
Yoshi around for two days! Lol
2:30 finally said goodbye to “Lousy”-ana! Also began to hit some traffic. Started seeing some interesting clouds,
checked radar, looked like we were going to drive straight into a storm! Passed an accident, looked like a rear ending
with one car spun all the way around. More
traffic, lots of rain and some thunder.
4:30 Hello Alabama!
We had stopped at a Love’s before leaving Mississippi and the babies
were excited about it and talking about stopping at another one on another trip
with Papaw! J Then we found more traffic! But I was able to get a good pic of a cool
car as we passed it slowly. Then we got
to Mobile. Wow, they have some really
interesting buildings! Even the jail was
neat. However, that tunnel was NOT neat
at all!!!! I almost cried, the kids
loved it! I don’t think of myself as
claustrophobic but I do not handle tunnels or caves or parking garages well!
6:30 FLORIDA!!! We
had made it to Florida! We stopped at
the visitors center but they had already closed. L We did get a pic with a neat Dolphin
statue. The two littlest had got small
naps. We were starting to get hungry and
we were tired but we were trying to make it to the campsite while we still had
some daylight so Honey could get the RV set up.
We saw 10 deer as we were driving.
They are such pretty creatures.
7:30 Arrive at campsite!
Whew! Glenn gets the RV set up, I
read the park rules and make a trip to the bathroom with babies.
8:30 Dinner! Honey
went to get Little Ceasers. After dinner
was bedtime! We were so glad to be here
but we were exhausted! I think a 9 hr
drive in one day is too much. Ahhhh…..sleep! J
