1. Favorite way to travel (plane, train, automobile, etc.)
Automobile. I hate the time it takes to get places but I like the feeling of being in control. Planes freak me out because I always think they are going to crash. I’m pretty much certain I’ll die in a plane crash. And then you will all come on my blog and point to this post and say, “Holy toledo! She was prophetic!” and it will be so amazing. But a waste too since I’ll be, ya know, dead.
2. Where’s your favorite place to travel to that you’ve been to?
I like Hilton Head. It’s been awhile since I’ve been there though and I hear it’s gotten pretty touristy. We used to go every couple years. We’re going back in June and I’m super excited to take Jack there. I used to LOVE it when I was little. Hanging out around the tree listening to Greg Russell sing. Awesome. Plus, there’s a place called the Salty Dog Cafe that we used to always go to. I always thought it was in reference to a kind of hot dog. Now that Salty Dogs are my drink of choice, I’m even MORE excited about HH than I used to be! A whole cafe devoted to salt, gin, and grapefruit juice? Double awesome.
3. Where’s the place that you want to go but have never been?
For some reason, I really want to go to Maine. It could have something to do with my undying love for lobster.
4. Do you deal with traffic well?
Um. No. Not at all. I am not a very nice person in traffic. I don’t lose my temper, I just get super antsy and need to GETOUTOFTHECARRIGHTNOW!!!!
5. Ever had an emergency while traveling?
Like wet myself? Not really. Though someone I know had to pee really bad in the car one time. That one time happened to be on my wedding night. She was driving home with a car full of people from the wedding and in her pretty little bridesmaid dress, had to get in the backseat and go into a water bottle. For some reason, all of 281 (one of the main highways in SA) was all one lane and/or closed in random spots on the night of our wedding so everyone was stuck in traffic after the reception. Including us. It took us 2 hours to get from the Museum where our reception was to our hotel. My brother was driving us in my new car. Which hadn’t yet been registered. He was in a tux and, understandably, didn’t have his license with him. He got pulled over for speeding (because holy crap! the bride and groom had been in the car for TWO hours and he was just trying to get us to our hotel!) and the cop couldn’t get any ID on him because there were no license plates and no driver’s license. So his only choice was to let him go or arrest him. Thankfully, after seeing me and John in the back set, he chose the former.
6. Do you have a passport? What countries have you been to?
Yes. Mexico, Jamaica, London, Italy (2). And Texas, of course.
7. Are you’ve light packer or do you pack everything but the kitchen sink?
I’m a pretty middle-of-the-road packer.
8. Do you take the fastest route or the road less traveled?
Fastest. My husband would prefer the road less traveled. It doesn’t make for fun car rides.
9. Do any activities on the road? (like road games, reading, sleeping, etc. )
Not really. Though one time I made a wreath on the way from St. Louis to Omaha. That was fun. And I’m not being sarcastic. I also scrapbooked once on a drive.
10. Use a paper map or GPS?
GPS. Who the heck wants to use a paper map these days?

Like I told you before, you can come to Maine now. We will probably have a wedding "reception" next summer there once things settle down. Maybe you can use that as an excuse to come to Maine and have some lobster :)
