Are we there yet?

We went on our first family vacation to San Diego, California. Mike and I did the math and figured the numbers and that driving would be cheaper than flying. So we packed the car up, programmed our magellangrabbed our tourist book ( I love this book. I found it at the DI for $1 and it shows all the must see spots of all the cities in the US)and began our 12 hours drive. Actually we were going to drive at night since it would cut on cost for driving with the A/C and stopping for the kids, snacks, bathroom breaks, etc.

But Mike was too excited to we started our drive in the morning.
On our way to San Diego we had to stop in Vegas for Dunkin Donuts!!
It's the closest donut shop to us so we couldn't pass it up. Yummy!!!!
We drove, and drove, and drove.....and drove some more. And when we crossed the state line into California this is what we seen.
Not actually the picture we were expecting. But soon we realized we were in Cali when we seen this car. A little ford with pimped out rims. LOL. The first night we just parked in our little Travelodge motel room, watched So You Think You Can Dance, ordered a pizza and slept. I know not much fun but we were tired and sore from sitting in our car for over 15 hours. The kids added 3 hours to our time. But day #2 was a different story.
