畢業之後, 總算讓我找到一份還算不錯的工作. 將家當安排妥當, 寄出拖運之後. 於是, 一段歷時兩個星期, 將近3000miles的旅程就此展開. (平時我們出遊的範圍就只有東北幾個州, 這次終於有機會到中南部看一看不同的人文環境)
下面的google map是我們一路開過的地方. 地圖上標示的點是過夜的地方, 除了St. Louis 和Dallas各過兩夜之外, 大部分的時候都是上午開車, 中午左右到達市區, 順便逛一逛附近知名的景點. 原則上, 每天開車的時間都控制在3~4小時左右, 讓行程不至於太過於緊湊與勞累~~
摘記: 過夜的旅館 (全部都是用 priceline.com 預定的, 大部分都是2.5顆星級以上的hotel or motel)
