My longest trip was from LA to Auckland New Zealand.  It was so long I lost a day and it was my birthday that was lost.  So I keep saying I am younger than I really am. ;D

My trip from Miami to Disney World in Orlando. It was well worth it!

The longest trip I've ever taken was too Oklahoma. We went almost a 1,000 miles by car to get there and went through Missouri so we went pass the giant Arch which was interesting. I also thought it was nice eating at some different restaurants along the way.

Next time, stop and visit the arch. It's a spectacular view from the top. There are huge windows to look out. And if it's windy outside, the arch has a sway of about 18 inches. Scary, but fun when it happens!

They also have a nice museum in the arch. They have a video that shows the men building the arch step by step. Very interesting. So next time, visit the city next time you're passing through if you have time.

St. Louis has too many wonderful things to miss. The zoo, the art museum, history museum, science center, great restaurants, a new ballfield, shopping, great fireworks on the 4th of July, and lots of other cool things.

I have driven from chicago to texas a half a dozen times and driven from here to florida a few times. I actually like road trips i think its fun and flying is a hassle and expensive like driving around seeing places.

We just did a five week road trip: Seattle to GA up to Maryland, over to Ohio, back to GA then back to Seattle. I made several cross country trips plus several drives between Alaska and the lower 48. I love travelling by car.

Longest plane ride was from Juneau AK to Barbados. Took 24 hours with the layovers.

South Carolina to South Dakota and Alabama to Minnesota are the longest drives, but I have flown further.

The longest trip I've ever taken was during my college years. During spring break, myself and 5 other college students drove out west in a van and stayed at KOA's in Colorado and Utah areas. We were gone for 12 days and had an absolute blast on our trip.  :wave:

Longest trip I have ever taken was when I went to China a few years ago, in terms of distance. My parents are both (now retired) teachers, and when we were kids we used to take road trips and drive all over the country. I think the longest we were ever gone was 3 weeks. I have no idea how my parents retained any sanity driving thousands of miles with three kids, lol.

Longest trip was from the US to South East Asia, almost half way through the world.
