It's officially road trip season!!! Who doesn't like a good road trip, right!?
Spring break is just around the corner, and I know a lot of you guys have vacation plans or in the planning process now. One of my favorite things bout spring break is the long road trips. Road trips are all about the journey to me.
Some people hate to be in the car for long periods of time, but my kids and I love it. Your travel companions can either make or break a trip. Pick your travel companions wisely!!!
It's just something about putting on the most comfiest outfits, packing up the car, having a cooler with our favorite drinks, a tote with our favorite snacks, cranking up tunes on XM Radio, and nothing but the open road ahead of us that sets such a positive and excitement vibe.
Road trips are like therapy to me, especially my trips by myself. It gives me time to reflect on everything in my life. I have the time to really think on things that I'm normally too busy to even give a second thought. Most of my tough decision making are solved while in deep thought on these trips. The endless hours spent on the road to me are so worth it.
Being on the road always give me time to finally unwind. The tension from work, home, and whatever else that I've faced during the week, escapes my body. I'm instantly in relax mode. Leaving all worries behind for a few days of relaxation, brightens my mood instantly.
Road trips allows my family and I to have the necessary bonding time we all need. The kids and I have the time to actually catch up and talk about things that we're normally too busy to discuss at home. One of our favorite games to play in the car is the color game. We all pick a color. Whoever see their color car the most on the road by the time we reach our destination wins. My daughter likes to keep a diary of all of the states that we travel through. Our time together on these trips are priceless. Keeping video diaries on the road are their faves. They record everything!!! There's nothing better than cutting up with them in the car while singing and dancing to our favorite songs. Seeing mom with giggles, and letting loose without any worries is priceless to them.
I love venturing to new places, while seeing new scenery as I travel. The different landscapes, bridges, waters, and cities are so memorizing. But the feeling you get when you have finally arrived to your destination, there is nothing like it!!!
