The Road Trip
there
well most importantly, we didn't get lost!! (yay). it was actually very easy. we stopped in adel, GA at a McD. did u know the happy meals have Finding Nemo toys?? i got one of course. i have Dory. hee hee. anyway we originally planned to stop for the night in atlanta, but once we got that far the sun was still up so we're like Yeah keep going! Then we planned on staying in Chattanooga (sp), TN. but then , the sun was *still* up, so we're like woohoo keep on truckin. Tennessee is so beautiful. as soon was we entered the state there were hills! Hills!! actual elevation goin on. sorry but it's exciting after living in IL and FL where there is... flatness. There was an aquarium in Chat and that interested me. but we didn't have time. so anyway, we traveled into central time (oooooooo) and stopped in Nashville.
after nash, we drove about 4 hrs to Memphis. There was so much traffic goin thru nashville's interstate. not cool.

back
going home we drove the whole day! that was a purty long day. this time we went thru mississippi and alabama to fl. we stopped in Elvis' birthplace called Tupelo, MS. that house is so tiny! we didn't go in it tho cuz it cost $2.50 each. pshh yeah rite we pretty much kno what's in there. they had a museum there too where we bought most of the souvys. elvis has a childhood pic taken with his parents. they look scary in it.... and that pic was all over the place. aah! after that we stopped in other places for gas, went thru birmingham, montgomery, finally back into eastern time into FL! rain rain rain, STORM. we had to stop at a citgo i think it was. ate at the arby's there. we had so much energy, u'd think we'd be tuckered out and bored as heck. oh yeah at that point it was almost 10pm. my dad thought it would take 6 more hours, and i was like nah it only takes 3 or 4 hours. well at his rate it definitely only took 3 haha. 80mph in a storm isn't the brightest idea unless u're an "experienced driver" which is what he called himself. lol. we got home at 1am ish.

stay tuned for the next entry which is about nashville and memphis.
