An adventure through the states
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEN! Today is an exciting day! It’s finally Ben’s birthday! Wohoo! We started out opening his card and reflecting on the fact that we has thus far visited 12 States! It’s been quite a journey so far and we continue to be surprised by each state. This morning however, we went to Graceland! We’ve …
After our night on the town in Nashville, I woke up feeling somewhat delicate (I believe this happens as you get older)! Ben ever the trooper did and excellent job of packing the bags and car before we bundled in the car and headed for a mighty breakfast. We’ve noticed that once again the people …
Driving to Nashville last nignt meant gaining back the hour we previously lost. It’s really strange how Tennessee has two timezones, depending on which side of the state that you’re on, I bet it’s baffling to live here. This morning we’ve had a lay in and managed to catch up with our families, it was …
After yesterday’s tranquil hike we headed to Tennessee to settle for the night. We ended up in a little town called Gatlinburg, the drive to this city was rather fun! We thought it was just going to be a quiet out of the way town but this place turned out to be built with novelty …
Good morning UK! We have a plethora of adventures to update you with but let’s start with today, which has been rather interesting indeed! We’ve had a couple of days to get used to our extra hour, little did we know that we would soon say goodbye to it again! Today’s expedition led us through three …
We stayed one more night in Florida after our busy day with the various animals, we woke ready to continue to drive north west. At this point in Florida we change over into the Central Standard Time putting us six hours behind the UK. It was great for us to gain the extra hour, handy …
Yesterday we made it back to the Everglades area and stayed the night. Unfortunately the driving doesn’t let up at the moment and it’s now time to drive up the west coast of Florida. We’ve enjoyed the weather and the drives, despite the length of some of them. We’ve been Gator watching since we got here …
After a fabulous day at the Kennedy Space Centre we decided to head on down to Miami. We had only planned to drive through and stay outside the city as we had a mighty long drive after this down to Key West. As we got to Miami and then drove through, stopping for dinner we …
As I am sure you’ve noticed I have been a bit behind in updating the blog! We are really enjoying ourselves and this is the trip of a lifetime. I have been having some trouble with the wrist (carpal tunnel) and have been trying to avoid repetitive movements such as typing. I thank you for …
Today we reached Georgia! Feeling good after yesterday’s antics, and our little tipple once we finally settled into our motel. We drove on through the state until we reached the coastal town of Savannah. This town is really a mix of old and new, a bit like Canterbury. There are lots of old streets and …
Incredible, exhilarating and terrifying all bundled into one! You will not believe the day we’ve had. Totally unplanned and crazy, read on for more! First things first back to this morning! Last night’s hotel stop turned out to be better than we’d hoped. The fantastic deal that Ben got us meant that we had an ocean …
This morning started with a slightly funny incident, I bounced out of the motel ready to pack the boot and walked straight into the open boot headbutting it! This little incident left me with a lovely red line across my forehead for the entire day! I have no idea how Ben managed to keep a …
