Hey there all, driving down in may from Niagara Falls. We are planning on driving straight through, and I am reading so many mixed reviews I just want someone to tell me its all good !
Taking 90, 79, 19, 77, 95 ....
Departure 6pm: We have a 1.5 year old, bed time is 7pm. Going to feed him and put him in his PJs like normal for around 6 and then head out. Driving straight through the night to hopefully have him sleep the vast majority of the trip.
I plan on waking up around 4pm that afternoon, so don't worry I wont be driving tired at all.
There is just such a mixed bag of advice, a lot of people saying its going to take 24 hours, which I guess would be fine and put us at the resort for 6pm, but I was really hoping it would be more like 18 - 20 hours. Planning that first leg to be almost straight through, stop around midnight for gas / bathroom, and then drive another 6 hours straight til 6am at least.
In the morning, my wife will take over for a bit of the drive and I might sneak in a nap (though I am usually good to go 24 - 36 hours awake).
Anyone else do this kind of thing ? Anyone else go straight through the night ? Tell me I am not crazy !!!
