Vacation time is almost here! I am both excited & nervous about the next 9 days. Tomorrow I leave for my first ever long solo road trip. I am headed to Panama City Beach, Florida via a 3 day stop in Mammoth Cave, Kentucky. Alone!
I will be posting along the way. As for right now, I have to get through my last day at work until October 15th, fill up my gas tank, get home, finish laundry, pack, load up the car & try to sleep!
The plan is to leave by 4am....I want to get through Chicago before rush hour and have a late breakfast/early lunch somewhere in Indiana. Any suggestions? My original plan was to go to Jersey Cafe in Carmel, IN but they do not open until 11am and I think I should be hitting there around 10. I really do not want to loose an hour waiting for them to open. Kentucky before nightfall is the plan.
The only goal of this trip beside total relaxation is no eating at chain restaurants - other than the drive there & back- This is tough for me...not exactly adventurous when it comes to food :-) Baby steps! I have a list of a few restaurants from the Food Channel & The Travel Channel that may fit into my plans. The Jersey Cafe is one of those. Diners, Drive Inn's and Dives is what is inspriring the try new restaurants goal.
Check in often & I will do my best to keep you entertained with my travels.
