Do pack snacks, but don’t eat them all in the first hour. You don’t want to reach your destination feeling like you’re famished . Do bring entertainment for the kids, but don’t rely solely on electronic devices. You might end up with a car full of zombie children who won’t look up from their screens for hours on end. Do take breaks to stretch your legs, but don’t assume that every rest stop has clean bathrooms. Sometimes you just have to hold your breath and hope for the best. Do have a playlist ready, but don’t subject everyone to your personal favorite songs for the entire trip. You might love that death metal band, but your family might not appreciate it as much. Do plan ahead, but don’t over-schedule every minute of the trip. Leave some room for spontaneity and unexpected adventures. After all, that’s what makes a road trip memorable. #WanderWheelsCA #travelbook #roadtrip #familyadventures
