Planning a trip!(not a drug related trip=)

Commando · #1 (**permalink**) 10-03-2007, 06:19 PM

Well drugs will be involved, duh.

but anyways.

Me and my girlfriend are planning a trip to go see her family out in Indiana, and we live in Connecticut. (I bet you guys know who's idea this was!)

Anyways, We are planning on leaving at night, and the trip should take rougly 12 hours. Only problem is, i dont know what site to get directions from. mapquest/google maps are the only 2 i know of, and they gave 2 comepletly different times and directions, but both between the hours of 12hours/15min - 12hours/45min. Is there any other sites you can recomend to find the best way to travel?

Also heres another great side note, shes afraid to fly. also shes pretrified of highway driving, so guess who's doing all the driving!

Any good tips on how to manage yourself driving for 12 hours? ways to sit, things to put on your seat, anything like that. certain types of music that could make time go by faster. n also i was planning on smoking an L every 1-2 hours

but i think that would just make me sleepy and since we are planning to leave at night(roughly 9-10pm) that could cause some problems while driving, espeically since that bum will prob be sleeping

Anyways, so basically my 2 main quetsions are, best site to get directions from, and any good tips to make myself make this trip and not go fucking crazy!!!!

Thankss!!!!

If you like classic rock and stuff, get entire albums on cd (or mp3 I guess) and listen to those on the ride.

sleep the whole day before. I would listen to metal or anything you like that makes you happy. The L- idea will work if you drink a lot of energy drinks maybe...god luck bra.

haha techno pisses me off after awhile, so i wouldnt wanna do that. just put on some chill music, stop to eat and rest whenever u feel like you should. try to get a nice sativa to smoke, it will help you stay awake.

notbakedenough · #12 (**permalink**) 10-04-2007, 03:13 AM

google maps? mapquest? those are the kind where you type in the start and end point, and they give you a big red line that shows you the way.
