I'm jealous i didn't include that. As for driving with kids, one still has more control when driving. You'd be surprised to know the, "I will turn this car around," threat holds some credibility (at least the first four or five times your use it). This is something that can't be said 3,000 miles in the air. Even young kids know you have no control over where that big contraption is going to take them once you take off. Plus, you can stop and stretch your legs whenever you want or just say, "Hell with it," we're sleeping here tonight."MadCaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00853734147596898118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2308420026618721726.post-48953570687201945812010-02-27T19:00:52.117-06:002010-02-27T19:00:52.117-06:00I heartily agree!

(Drives home, on the other hand, tend to suck. Probably because they lack the element of anticipation the drive out has.) I am coming to realize that, if the destination is within two days of my home, I would much rather drive it than fly it. I find it more comfortable and I like the sense of control. I also don't have to share the car with a 5 and 7 year old :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
