Fully intending to leave Boston this morning, but with a few last things to wrap up, we finally hit the road with a bulging car and big grins on our faces at 1pm. A basic route, and a few back of the napkin calculations last night constitute our plan. This road trip is as close to winging it as we get, but with a GPS and iPhone at hand what can go wrong?

The first leg from Boston to Philly is about a 7 hour drive, which we attacked in two chunks, either side of a break to watch Italy knock France out of Euro 2008. The drive took us through the now very familiar Massachusetts, and skirted parts of NYC including the Bronx.
After crossing the George Washington Bridge (pictured above) out of NYC we took the New Jersey Turnpike, a seemingly never-ending highway that makes Nascar oval tracks look like an interesting drive. Maybe I should have read this article in preparation.
