Road trip tips

Three things I learned from my road trip to Prague with my good friends K and DW this past weekend:

1. Remember to bring your passport, preferably before you are more than an hour into the 6 hour trip. Forgetting it at home adds 3 hours to an already long drive.

2. No matter how much you trust your GPS system, do not turn off the highway into a dark forest late at night when you have missed an exit. Driving on unpaved, unlit logging roads in the dark is very scary, particularly when your GPS loses its satellite connection.

3. Bring lots of Kleenex. If one of you has a cold when you start, you all will by the time you finish.
