Home Sweet Home
I know I promised some profound words to sum up the trip but at this point all I can say is "Wow." It's great to be home but I think we all miss the adventure that each day on the road provided. It all worked out so well that I'm not sure I would change much of anything. Having almost all of our rooms booked for the first 3/4 of the trip worked out very well. However, leaving the last several stops unbooked allowed us some flexibility we would otherwise not have had. The books on CD/tape were great for the kids. For those of you who said we were crazy to do it without a DVD player all I can say is "neener, neener, nee-ner." We were right, it was uncessary and would have been more of a distraction. One of the books on CD they listened to was 7 1/2 hours long. Hard to find a DVD to match that unless they are gonna watch Roots. I wish I had done a better job tracking the cash I spent. The only problem with the fact that I did not is that I don't know what we spent on food/souvenirs/entrance fees, etc. All the gas and hotels were on the credit card so they are easier to track. All in all it only cost us a little more than the 6 days/5 nights we spent at DisneyWorld last year. And this time every thing we saw was real, not a recreation of something real. A pretty good deal I think and a far better value. Thanks to all for following along with us and for all your comments on the blog.

Just read your trip, thanks for sharing, I have been to many of the same places over the years and in fact I am sure I had Pizza at the same place in SD. Of course you can't see everything but if you go out west again spend time in the Rockies also Canadian Rockies and Utah.
Glad everyone had a great trip.
