And we are off!
Our menagerie of three humans, three cats, two saxophones, one guitar, one harmonica, two bikes and a bunch of bags and suitcases has left Grandma's house in Mechanicsburg, PA, and we are off on our next adventure!
Six days driving 2,400 miles to Tlaquepaque, Jalisco, Mexico, with a stop for a day in New Orleans in the middle. Follow us on the journey!
9:21 am: Leave Mechanicsburg. Ellie starts crying.
10:16 am: Welcome to Maryland. 67 miles. Ellie is still crying.
10:26: am Welcome to West Virginia. That was quick! Still crying.
10:47 am: Welcome to Virginia. 103 miles. They are coming fast and furious! Guess what Ellie is doing?
The rest of the day: Taking turns driving through Virginia and into Tennessee.
8 PM: We finally reach Athens, Tennessee, around 7:10 PM, settle the cats into the Super 8 Hotel, and are now waiting for our food at the Applebee's across the street. Ellie cried more than half the time and then acted out at the hotel by hissing at the other cats. Such a pleasant traveler.
Day 1 is in the books!
