Road Trip


This year Ranz and I decided to take a much deserved vacation... and long overdue honeymoon.  This was our very first trip without the kids and to make it interesting we decided to start it off with a road trip (the overpriced March break airline ticket cost also helped with that decision... $900 bucks each round trip to Florida... forget that!).

How long is a road trip from Ottawa to Florida you might ask?!  26 hours give or take...  the trip down was definitely GIVE.

We started our road trip adventure on a Thursday night... around 5pm.


Our before selfie... 5:11pm Thursday

A road trip might sound fun and adventurous but in actuality it's really not... so here's a brief summery of our drive...

We decided to play Russian roulette radio to see what tunes each city radio station had to offer.  Here's the list before I crashed out on Ranz (I did that a lot to him!).

All Star
I Touch Myself
Can't Fight This Feeling 
I Would Do Anything For Love
It's My Life
Mysterious Ways
That's All
I Want Rock and Roll
What If God Was One Of Us
Big Girls Don't Cry
Free Falling
She's A Killer
Go Your Own Way
Flying High Again
Runaway Train
... This is where I get super sleepy and forget to finish our road trip playlist :(


What else do you do in a car to kill time...


Take numerous State stop selfies

A quick manicure... I think I did pretty good considering the sharp turns and all!

US Gas prices rock!!!  $150 all the way to Florida!


This is me attempting to take pics of anything interesting along the way... 



This is Daryl... He's ready to help us fight zombies when that day comes... oh and it's coming!


We arrived at our destination at 12 midnight... 30 hours... we did however stop for 4 hours midway.

And the way back...not so fun.  


Goodbye palm trees :'(

Hello... Mexico?! 


Our cruise ported Saturday... we left Florida around 12:30 pm.  I had to be back to work Monday morning so it was a quick trip North to say the least.  To top it off, Ranz wasn't feeling the greatest so I did most of the driving and I definitely needed the rest of the week to recuperate... so exhausting!  We made it home in 25 hours!!!
