Road Trip 2014: Day 11...The End.

We ended our road trip today with a drive back from LA.  We had Oliver and Julia with us and it all went pretty smoothly. They played car games and other such nonsense like silent contests.  We only had to rearrange seating once when Parker and Elizabeth were annoying each other.  We got home about 3:30 due to some heavy traffic in Livermore and Dublin.

All in we did about 2400 miles in 11 days.  We were pleased with each stop on the trip and really our only regret is that we didn't do one more day at Arches and Zion.  But Michaels' work and Elizabeth's gymnastics team camp did not allow that. We agree that we need to return to Zion when the kids are older and that we probably don't ever need to go back to Las Vegas, despite Parker asking, "When we come back here, will we stay in this same hotel?"

We have two weeks and two days before school starts and plan to do a lot of hanging around the house, a couple days at the KOA with Ebba as well as a water park with the cousins.

Not a bad summer.
