Planning the Road Trip
After a day of running around doing errands and meeting for lunche and dinner, I finally got to that trip planning that I was supposed to do yesterday. Luckily, it turns out that it will be 7 easy days of driving from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Warner Robins, Georgia. We are able to camp every day, which will be alot of fun.
The days will be broken up with a morning drive, midday lunch and sightseeing, afternoon drive and evening entertainment. None of our overnights will be anywhere special, so we are just going to see what we see and stop when it feels right.
So the trip will consist of the following:
- Day 1: Drive from Winnipeg to Grand Forks to the Super Target to stock up on supplies and then through Fargo and finally to Ashby, Minnesota.
- Day 2: Drive to Minneapolis and visit the outlet stores, then continue on to Oakdale, Wisconsin.
- Day 3: Drive through Madison and then over to Lake Michigan for some beach time in Zion, Illinois.
- Day 4: Drive through the beautiful city of Chicago, then down through Indianapolis to end at Edinburgh, Indiana.
- Day 5: Drive through Louisville, where we were in January, and end in Nashville, Tennessee.
- Day 6: Drive through Chattanooga and on to Atlanta, Georgia.
- Day 7: Drive to Warner Robins and move into our home away from home at the Sandpiper Apartments so that we can do the laundry.
Seeing how the trip works out, we were able to delay the start of our trip by one day. That’s one more day to ensure we can pack everything into the van…and to get me a GPS unit for easy directions (and friendly conversation). There are some great deals on the Internet and I even found something in town that I should be able to pick up tomorrow.
Tomorrow I will probably write about the 3D puzzle that our van will become when I pack up tomorrow. Maybe I will even get you a photo of that. Here’s a sample from when we moved from Ottawa to Winnipeg. I hope we will do better this time.

Wow, is there any room left for passengers? Enjoy your trip. If you have any questions while in the Chicago area, message me on Twitter.
