We left from Minnesota on a Friday evening (during January) . When we do road trips, we like to drive 6-7 hours a day if we can. Any more than that can be exhausting.
We like to stop every 2-3 hours on our travel days, to get out stretch our legs for 15-20 minutes.
Day 1 - Stayed in Des Moines, Iowa.
Day 2 - Stayed in Stillwater, Oklahoma.
Day 3 & 4 - Stayed in Austin.
Day 5 & 6 - Stayed in San Antonio.
Day 7 & 8 - Stayed in Houston. We
Day 9 & 10 - Stayed in Galveston.
Day 11 - We headed home. We decided to just push and get home as quickly as we could since it was so cold. Leaving Texas, we had freezing rain but we still drove to Kansas City, slept and then got up and made it back home 12 days later.
We had such a great time on this trip. It was unfortunately, colder than we would have liked but it was better than Minnesota temperatures.
