Golden Rule # 1 know
that this country is huge. Looking at a map you may create the illusion that one again in a few weeks to cross. There is no way that you can, no matter what everyone says mapping site. Day after day spent entirely behind the steering wheel is a hell I would not wish on my worst enemy, and you certainly do not want to carry them . suffer from a typical pleasant cross-country road trip can take anywhere from one month to two months depending on whether a return trip or not
Map It -. Whether cross-country round-trip return trip (from home and back) or single (rent or another car you drop off and can fly back) is on a mapping Web site, is estimated to get the number of hours it takes you to your destination drive (and back if applies) There are tons out there like Google Maps and MapQuest Get Real -.. If you can go for 8 hours a day to think you have another thing coming. For a fun (I hope this is not a method of self-torture) Road Trip to want to go, no more than four hours behind the wheel of a day to spend. This makes many stops and visits along the way, and you will both need during your vacation. To make your trip more enjoyable, are planning a day “off” by driving occasionally during your vacation. Plan on this day in a place where it enough to see and do in order to be entertained for a whole day . Consider Your Destination – wherever you go, it’s probably somewhere you are very interested, otherwise you would not through the country, is not it Allow at least a few days there to really enjoy it? before heading back home no matter whether you fly back home or go back.
Golden Rule # 2
Spend some time planning the sights, On the way, and your time will see at your destination. Winging it with this to some very boring breaks lead along the route. Most of the big things are simply not visible from the highway. Great resource for planning your stops / Sightseeing are:
Guidebooks on each state you passieren.Reise forums – especially those who specialize in certain areas / states and cities-Adresse.Websites, in one state / territory or by you on the road trip attractions (such as I get) the trade.
Golden Rule # 3
A common question I get is whether any book hotels / camping / lodging and other daily reschedule or just “wing it” and hope for the best The answer: You can either do, but there are rules specific to each for the planner, it is easy – planning before booking is usually much cheaper accommodation..! and will guarantee you a place to lay your head have at the end of each day (winging it can be dangerous, but there are tricks to make it less so).
If you “wing it “You have to want a little planning. At the very least, book your accommodation in the area to visit you on the way, the favorite targets are then. Trying to get last-minute reservations near a place like Yellowstone Park in the summer . Madness is not going to happen, consider the time of the year -. New York City in the month of December is a crazy schedule accordingly
If not “wing it” People can either fly their GPS and real.. by the seat of their pants, or they can protect themselves from trouble by the following
Before You Go -. can research areas on the way and finish that – or not – the places you want to keep going. Make a list of accommodation choices for all 3-5 and take the address information and phone number. Put them somewhere safe and accessible for your trip (I use a folder).
On The Road – Every morning, make the decision where you want to go that day, choose your location and evening calls to create lists select your accommodations do not set this out until later in the day when a place for you.?. the night will guarantee. What are vacancies in the morning will probably be snapped up for the afternoon. Now you can follow your whims everyday and still have the security of a book every night.
Golden Rule No. . 4
you really have to baby your car before making a cross-country road trip -.! more so than for any other journey you are about to reach its limits here is a checklist of things that have not responded by your mechanic before you hit the road: fall
Read the manual and all maintenance work, wash the care taken of the timing belt now, tune-ups, system, etc.. in this Kategorie.Holen Get an oil change, unless it was literally just you verändert.Haben your mechanic check the following:. hoses, spark plugs, belts, air filter and all liquids, too, if there is any problem / weird noise or odor you notice your car already, so umzugehen.Reifen are crucial. If they are old they will not be able to handle heat, as they roll on the street and is likely to blow. Replace it now if guaranteed. Get your tires rotated and alignment checked
Make You pack it, roadside emergency kit (jumper cables, flares, tire patching kit, jack, spare wheel), make sure to renew or a breakdown service membership and pack extra water, a blanket, a flashlight with fresh batteries, and some emergency snacks.
Golden Rule # 5
packaging for a Cross-country road trip is all about streamlining. Unlike other holidays, this is not one where you want to would grab an outfit for every day. The best plan is to 5-7 pants / skirts / Jeans and 7 -9 tops / shirts that coordinate well (as well as shoes, underwear, socks.
have
stick with neutrals (khaki, white, gray, black, navy, blue jeans) for easy mixing and matching. Add 3-4 sweaters and jackets (more layers when the weather gets colder), also in neutral colors. Bring a mild detergent for hand washing (or using a machine, if your accommodation it offers) to make these outfits last as many weeks as your journey takes Do not worry about your fellow passengers to get bored with your wardrobe -. most people do not have your clothes as much as you care
When it comes to other things, ensure sure to bring enough things that you just can not get on the road (for example, prescriptions). For everything else (drugstore shampoos, soap, shaving cream, etc.) you get only what to pack and more easily than on the road . You do not need to bring anything – you’re not going in the desert
