Vacation: Day 1

Let me just say that sitting in a car for over twelve hours sucks! Leaving the house at 2 a.m. was not my idea of fun or awesomeness.

We got through Illinois and were in Indiana by 6/7 a.m. It was a pretty uneventful voyage except for when Dad blew past a toll and proceeded to shout and swear up a storm that we made him miss it. Besides getting irritated about that, he was also seemingly obsessed with finding a stupid Walmart to go to. I don't really know why because it is not like Walmart is the best store on the face of the Earth. If it were me I would rather go to Target over Walmart any day of the week.

Besides the constant detours to try and find the stupid Walmarts, which we never did find, the day was pretty uneventful. We drove through some really pretty and steep hills in Tennessee and I did get to see horse farms in Kentucky. But other than that I pretty much read my Nook, listened to my I-pod, or I tried to sleep. Never was able to sleep no longer than like 45 minuets to an hour. It sucked.

Right now we are sitting in a shady Super 8 just south of Atlanta, Georgia. Swam in a decent pool, but it did have dead bugs floating in it which kind of grossed me out. Getting up somewhat early in the morning, seven-ish I think, and are going to finish driving to Orlando and get to Disney World sometime around 3-ish.
