Last year me and some friends went on a 10 day roadtrip from Calgary, AB to Las Vegas. We are thinking of doing the again the end of May. I have thought about it but have really no idea where to go. It will probably be another 10 days or so again. I was thinking of driving down the West coast to California and maybe spending a day or 2 in Tijuana. Does anybody have any suggestions? Distance really isn't an issue. On the Vegas trip we drove Calgary to Vegas in 22 hours straight.
 
Drug cartels are pretty much taking over right now. A lot of random kidnappings and killings are going on. Like steamboat said, I wouldn't go to mexico ATM. Unless it's southern mexico, I heard things aren't as bad there.

edit: LINK Didn't read the whole thing but to give you a bit of a head's up.
 
I would say Key West. That would be a nice long road trip for you, and a couple wild days in the keys is always fun.

I wish I had friends who still did stuff like this.
 
I'd suggest a trip to NoCal, with perhaps a side visit to Reno tossed in. San Francisco, Santa Cruz and the Napa Valley areas have a lot to see and do. Reno is prob on the way, depending on the route you take.
 
Michelle and I have talked numerous times about making a long road trip but for some reason it just never comes to fruition. I'd love to do it though, sounds like you had fun last time and are gearing up for some good times this go around.

Two words: National Parks. There are some absolutely beautiful ones. Hit Yellowstone, Yosemite, the Badlands, Redwood forest, Bryce Canyon, Grand Canyon, Saguaro, Carlsbad Caverns, etc.

I can second the national park idea. Also don't forget the other coast, Pennsylvania is a beautiful driving state, Washington D. C. and the Smithsonian, and onto the Blue ridge parkway.
 
If you end up coming to San Fransisco or more specifically the San Jose area let me know. I am always down to share a good one with you and anyone else from CP :).

You're just gathering information on the pending invasion of Canada.

SHHH! :whistling:


Well, here is a proposed route. I have a buddy who's lifelong dream is to watch the price is right, so that will probably be a stop for sure.
