Travel Games are the best
I do a lot of southern Illinois travel and really enjoy playing travel games along the way. There is the ever popular game of “I Spy with my Eye” and of course there is travel bingo, although that one is almost impossible for the driver to play. I also like to see how many different counties I can find on different license plates and even how many different states there are. Speaking of license plates, have you ever tried to decode some of those personalized plates only to find that you couldn’t and then you never get the chance to find out what they really mean to say? Another game is the alphabet game where you try and spot something that starts with an A and then a B and then a C and so on. I guess my love of car games actually started at a young age. My folks used to take us on vacation a lot and back in those days the car was the only way to get there. Gas prices were low and only the “affluent” could afford air line tickets. Most of the time traveling by car can be quicker than airlines anyway. I once drove from Des Moines, Iowa to Bolder, Colorado in less time that it a friend of mine to fly there. With the layovers and the delays and the storms, just plunking along the highway beat the airplane there by two hours.
