While in Alaska last weekend, we took a mini roadtrip from Anchorage to Seward to catch a whale-watching excursion up the Kenai Fjords, and the scenery along the drive to Seward was stunning! Glass-like water reflecting snow-capped mountains and glaciers at every turn, dense untouched forest with cliff-dwelling, dall sheep keeping company along the way. Our mini roadtrip got me thinking about how much fun it would be to rent a VW Van and roadtrip it cross-country this summer–wherever the open road happens to take us! The US has such a diverse landscape that there’s no shortage of unique scenery reachable in just a few days’ drive, and of course loads of summertime memories just waiting to be made. Who’s with me?!

July 10, 2014 at 2:26 pmI’m planning a road trip from Washington D.C. through the Historic South down to New Orleans next summer in a vintage classic American car… I’ve been dreaming about this since last year but stuff always got in the way. Road trips are such a great and fun way to explore!
