Road Trips

[DuckforcoveR]

As some of you may or may not know, we are a Road Trip/ Food family. Never had experiences as a kid with this stuff, so decided one day to start a new tradition with my kids. Since 2014, we average about 45,000 miles a year in a truck to chase down food paradise hot spots in the USA. 

Tons of memories, the kids love it, 32 states and counting, and I couldn't be more blessed with these troopers that love seeing this great land and all of the hidden gems. 

However, with that said, Dad also plans his own trips to add to the bucket list. I bought a Harley and have a dozen bike trips on the docket, I bought a yacht and have some sailing trips planned... wait, I didn't buy a yacht, scratch that, had too much to drink and had dreams again the other night...

Either way, saw this and just died laughing. Mind you, may need help from 2 of my 3 favorite G's to verify (Google and @Gordi ) but if this is legit I'm totally bringing the Harley on an international trip!




Legit or not, what's the best trip you've taken, OR the best trip you can imagine taking? Not opposed to air travel stories, but curious to hear from true wanderers and be inspired. 

I couldn't make out the text on the image Duckster, but... it looks like driving the length of the UK in less than 24hrs?
Is it possible? Yes. (The whole of the UK is roughly the same size (in area) as Michigan, Wyoming or Oregon! and 1/3 the size of Texas!!)
Would I do it? No. You'd miss all the best bits and the main motorways are boring!! LOL
I'd miss out all of the boring bits and go straight to the Scottish Highlands, pretty much anywhere up there!
Best trip? Hitch-hiking through Europe in 1984 after I finished my studies.
Nicest place (on that trip): Annecy in the French Alps: stunning, beautiful, immaculately clean, fresh-air like you wouldn't believe, and crystal clear blueish waters in the rivers and lake (Lac D'Annecy)... ahhh memories.

Here's the road trip detail, because yeah, I'm a juvenile at heart sometimes 

Road to Twatt

But certainly agree that the main roads don't quite give the same experience. Seeing the Highlands is 100 percent on my "don't wait until I'm too old" list.
