Answer 1

Talk incessantly. Read every billboard out loud and express suprise at its contents, whatever they are ("What? Barbeque flavor? I don't believe it."). Play the license plate game. Play the punch buggy game. Play 20 questions. Sing along to the radio. Insist on controlling the radio, especially if I'm in the back seat. Roll down the window and play airplane with my hand. Make the driver pull over at the next rest stop so that I can go to the bathroom. Make the driver pull over to the side of the road so that I can go to the bathroom because I can't wait for the next rest stop. Stare out the window at the grasses and the trees by the side of the road and wonder how they like all that carbon monoxide. They seem to manage, and I'm glad. Then I look for flowers or anything of unexpected beauty, and silently rejoice if I find it before it blurs and I have to start over again...

Answer 2

The last long road trip I went to the book store/and library and got some books on tape and listened to them. It helped a little! I also call everyone I know and talk on my cell phone and catch up with everyone while i am driving.

Answer 3

When I drive from Colorado to Chicago (a 15-17 hour drive), I love to crank up the music and sing along. Plus I just really enjoy the experience of driving across country - I find that fun in and of itself.

Answer 4

I think about my life... starting right from my early childhood days till present... things I did then and how differently I'd do them today... people I met... games I played... friends I made... how may do I still have around me... where did I lose the one's that aren't there... trying times and how I got out of those situations... things I used to like... things I don't like anymore... places I'd visited... good moments, bad moments... dreams I had... achievements... aspirations... it just goes on and on...

You'll be pleasantly surprised to rediscover so much of your life you'd forgotten or didn't have time to think about, by the time your road trip ends.

Answer 5

ahh well when i went to texas it was a loooong drive to austin and there were 8 people in a van and let me tell you the time went by pretty fast

first if your going during the day i would just look out the vindow and just comment in my head about everything you see, i know this sounds childish but i looked at the clouds and i kept making shapes and yea but anyway if that bores you

bring your ipod or mp3player or cd player to listen to

or if there are people coming with you mess around with them make fun, ahh well i hoped this helps =]

Answer 6

sleep is always good an then maybe a portable dvd player to watch movies, talk to who you are on the trip with look at the scenery or jsut sit there an count the minutes until you get there

Answer 7

I go to the library and get a book on CD/tape. Keeps you alert and makes the trip seem shorter.

Answer 8

Sing along with the songs on the CD Player.

Answer 9

deliver any electronics that entertain you. %. up a large number of wintry climate clothing, alongside with pants, sweaters, jackets, socks, etc. be particular to deliver thick blankets to stay warmth, and as for make up, there is particularly no huge difference on what you should positioned on for makeup. Take what you would oftentimes positioned on!

Answer 10

depends who Im with...if with family or friends then we play that alphabet game where you try to go through the whole alphabet by letters on signs or the chat and listen to music...if with a girl, I like to play road signs, especially at night...thats where every sign you see you have to take off a piece of clothing, i gets kind of hard to steer sometimes
