Road Trip Across America...Day One

Come along with me and a friend as we travel from our hometown in the Metro Area, Washington D.C. to his new residence in Southern California.

This is the Day One installment of a 6 day cross country trek. I came away with 8 hours of video from the 6 day journey and will whittle it down to a handful of minutes in the daily installments. This is a video account of our first time driving across the country in an automobile. If you haven't gotten to take the trip please come along and see what ensues. If you have already...see how our path will differ from yours.


Day One
-----------
Leave Washington D.C. for California

mate this is lush... me n my girlfriend are driving from chicago to LA vis vegas... any tips?

@brocklebank2k Thanks kid...If you want to keep it cheap then rent a car that has excellent gas mileage. We had a Toyota Corolla that gave us 300 miles between $25 fill ups. Go for hotels outside of big cities because they are cheaper. Check out some American Indian sites along your way. The trip was great you'll have a blast, have fun.

Do you think this is possible - turn 19, fly to Florida, buy a ford excursion v10, drive to San fransisco via route 66 then sell the excursion and fly back to the uk with 5 people with about 5000 dollars each?

LOL At about the 58 second mark...'Still in Virginia.'

Try starting off in central Texas. To get to ANY border, it would be 'Still in Texas. 8 hours later.'

@brocklebank2k The pirmary rule of ANYTHING in life.......HAVE FUN!!

Have fun.

Take some time to stop and just talk with people, thank a Servicemember, thank a trucker (many of whom are Vets), take time to enjoy the scenery (however it's spelled). I've done LOTS of traveling in LOTS of countries over 26 years.

Take time to have fun and take time to be grateful!

@brocklebank2k Don't be afraid to go off....the beaten path. Take SOMW time to explore things. I once went on a road trip from Illinois to Maryland, stopped off at some local park in W. VA. and found some arrowheads.
