Fashback: Big Trip to Indiana

I figured that I would title all the summer travel entries or little memories of the girls growing up that pop in my head as "Flashback". I have a rolling screen on the computer that has all the pictures go by and sometimes I will catch the cutes things. Just a little something to help me keep track of everything. 

We started our "Girls Only Rode Trip" to see Aunt Lei and family in Indiana.  Not only did we have a long trip ahead of us but we wanted to make it fun.  The first day we headed out at 9 a.m. to see where we could get to in one day.  We did not really have a plan, just a map and some books on tape.  We really had an uneventful trip on the first day.  Driving through Atlanta made me a bit nervous so we had to get coffee after. Little Bug wanted us to get at least one state away from Georgia so for her, our goal was at least Kentucky. 

I know that I learned all the states and capitals in school and where they are all located but it really did not hit home that we moved to Georgia until we were driving through states like Tennessee, Kentucky and passing cities that I have always heard of but never thought I would see like Nashville, Chattanooga, Louisville, Indianapolis and a bunch of little town along the way.

We thought about stopping at a zoo or two but Little Bug and Bug were determined to get to the cousins.  We made it all the way to a little town by Mammoth Cave and stopped for the night.  A storm was coming in and I thought it would be fun to go to the cave in the morning.  Off to bed to get ready for the next day ahead...

'Til the next adventure...
