Hello,
The idea of RV-ing accross the country sounds very good to us, especially with 2 kids (having everything you need at hand). We are a family of 4 (we have 2 babies, boy is 3 years and girl is 2 years). We are planning to take an RV trip in September 2013 (16 nights total).
We live in Curacao (Netherlands Antilles). We will be traveling from Curacao to New York. We will stay in New York for 3 nights and then our RV trip will start. Since we have to fly back home from Miami, we thought RV-ing from New York to Miami. The idea is to stop along the big cities and attractions (in the cities) for the kids and also enjoy the nature. Since we have 2 toddlers, we are thinking of staying 2 day's at each stop. We'd like to drive maximum for 4 hours from one place to another...
What stops do you recommend within this route? It would be nice to know what the must sees are in this route and helpful tips. Where to park (where not) and how to drive (which route to take).
Best Camp grounds, just to spent the nights where the RV can be parked (within this route and stops/attractions for kids Any idea on average fees of the camp grounds?
Other questions that we have are:
- Can you park a RV anywhere?
- Can you park a RV at supermarkets?
- If we only need to park the RV just to get some sleep, do we still need to go to a camp ground? Since we are not really using any facilities of the camp grounds...
When I look at google maps, I'm like...oh it would be nice to do the following stops:
NY (3 nights at hotel) --> Washington --> Norfolk--> Durham -->Charlotte or Charleston --> Atlanta --> Savannah --> Jacksonville --> Tampa --> Orlando --> end at Miami airport (2 nights at hotel).
To make these stops, we have 12 nights... is this enough? do we need 2 days at a stop or is it easily done in one day? I have no idea, we haven't been to these places (well, we've been to miami, orlando and tampa). the idea is to enjoy some of the city sightseeing and some kids attractions at a stop... early evening, drive to the next stop.... is it doable in 12 nights?
Can we drive with an RV on this route?
We have no idea on where to start, so any advice, tips is appreciated.
Thank you!
Rosha.
