Before you throw tomatoes at an Ohio girl visiting our rival city, hear me out. I think it’s time we put away our differences and embraced the beautiful state of Michigan. Once you hear all the great things to see (and especially to eat) in Ann Arbor, I’m sure you’ll be ready to let bygones be bygones.
Taking a road trip is a great way to cover a lot of ground, save money on airfare and give you flexibility to explore whenever and whatever you want. Of course, there are also drawbacks; such as unhealthy on-the-road food choices, restless leg syndrome and sitting for way too long. Since I recently just spent more than 30 hours in a van driving around California, here are some fresh tips for having a great road trip.
California has the most parks of any state in the country. So, it’s the perfect state to rent a camper van and drive around visiting as many parks as you can. I mean, that’s what we did anyways. We stopped in 5 national parks, 3 state parks, 2 city parks and 2 state beaches. We also got some wine in Napa Valley, visited friends, and ate amazing Mexican food. It’s just hard to go wrong in the state of California.
I just purchased two flights on two different budget airlines. They were some of the cheapest flights I’ve ever purchased. I’ve flown on one of the airlines before, and had a good experience. I’ve read a lot of negative reviews bashing budget airlines, and I just thought I would throw in my two cents as to why I don’t hate them, and why I think they’re great.
