Day 3 - 10/01/07 (part 2)

Departed Baltimore, MD 11:00 am Arrived Boston, MA 05:00 pm. Travel Distance: 432 (total 1651 miles since 9/29/07). The day of Tolls and visiting friends. If you are ever traveling up the East Coast expect to pay tolls, and lots of them. $2 for crossing the bridge in Balitmore, $5 coming into Philadelphia, $4 toll to Delaware, $4.45 for New Jersey Turn Pike, and $6 for the George Washington bridge. A grand total of $21.45, Crazy!!! Over all the traffic has been great. When we traveled through New Jersey and New York we must have set record time. Almost no traffic, and we only had standstill traffic for 30 minutes to get over the George Washington bridge in New York City.

Because we set record time we called up Matt & Jill who live in Boston for dinner. They took us downtown, and showed us the site of the Boston Masscare, and we had dinner at an Irish Pub called "The Black Rose". After dinner we went to thier new home, and talked until 02:30 am. We had a great time.

Day 2 - 09/30/07 (part 2)

Departed Spartanburg, SC 09:00 am Arrived Baltimore, MD. Travel Distance: 636 (total 1219 miles since 9/29/07). Today was Awesome!!! We spent time at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC and did a behind the scenes tour of America's largest home. Amber and I won the house as a door prize, but we turned it down because it did not have central air. :-) We could easly spend a full weekend exploring the Biltmore, and what it has to offer. It is total recommended for everyone to visit at least once in a life time. After spending all day walking around the house, gardens, and visting the winery for taste testing we got back on the road after 05:00 pm and finally arrived at our hotel at 02:30 am. Time to go to bed, and continue on our trip to Maine.

Day 1 - 09/29/07 (part 2)

Departed Orlando, FL 1:00pm Arrived Spartanburg, SC 11:30pm. Travel Distance: 583 miles since 9/29/07. Today we are off on our second part of our honeymoon. We checked out of our hotel at Disney and picked up our rental car from Alamo (located on Disney grounds). The car was a disaster, it was dirty and over run with red ants. At first we only saw couple of them, and decided to deal with it. We headed to Savannah, GA and tried to eat at "Lady & Sons", but it was full. By this time we traded in our Chevy Colbalt at the Savannah airport, and got a Saturn Ion. No ants, and very clean, and we are heading toward Asheville, NC for a day at the Biltmore Estate.
