While
on road trips it’s not always the destination that’s important, it’s also what
you see along the way. When planning my
cross country move to Calgary, my friend and I sat
down and planned our route, hotels and then started looking up all the different
‘Largest Things’ in Canada. No road trip is ever complete without seeing the largest
monument or statue in the country/world. A drive that could have taken us four
days we stretched out to seven days to fit all the largest things into
our drive. We mapped out how to get to them and had all the addresses written
down that we followed. We mainly stayed to the Trans Canada Highway and did not
venture too far out of the way because we did not want to waste too much time.
Sometimes as you drive you find random things to stop at like my friends and I when we drove all over Nova Scotia. We were driving down the highway and looked to the left and saw
Another
fun thing that I just heard about from a co-worker when I told her about this
blog was Geocaching. Geocaching is a scavenger hunt across the country. People
have hidden boxes you can find with treasures that other people have left. Once
you have found the box, you sign the guest book, take the treasure and leave
your own treasure for the next person to find. You can plan road trips around
finding these which kind of sounds fun. I will have to definitely remember this
when I go on my next road trip.
