Last summer, my wife and I loaded up the car and took The Rock Daughters on a 1,900+ mile road trip – our first true family vacation. We headed east from Illinois, making our way to Philadelphia at our farthest point. Over the course of six days, we would visit Sesame Place, The Crayola Experience, Hershey’s Chocolate World, The J.M. Smucker Company Store & Cafe… and about 15 different rest stops along the way. And, because we did stop in Philly, I also tossed my taste buds in the ring for a round of cheese steak sampling with Pat’s and Geno’s (the battle rages on!). For 2015, we’re doing it again, but I’m not telling you where we’re headed just yet. The journey will be shorter, but the adventures will still be big – especially for the kids. Curious where we’re headed? Keep an eye on my Instagram, Twitter and Facebook this week, and follow #RockFatherTour
And because I do it every time we travel, here’s THE AQUABATS’ version of Lindsey Buckingham’s “Holiday Road” from National Lampoon’s VACATION…
