| Driving A Long
Distance To Drive 800 Miles Per Day |
|
If I drive 65 miles/hour for 16 hours, that will be 1040 miles. There will be 8 hours left for sleeping, eating, going bathroom, studying the next destination, etc. Maybe I can do some of it while driving. If I were like my friend, Saku-san, who can drive 20 hours a day, I did not have to wonder about this. Here's my thought about how to drive a long distance. Drive Interstate:
Drive Not Rest:
Drive Long Time:
Drive Fast:
After all, my best advice is to plan a relaxed trip. Driving a long distance is not fun at all. |
| Before the
Tour Preparations and goals of the US tour |
|
GOALS: Before I go, I set the following goals for this US tour.
CONSIDERATIONS: The following are special consideration based on my personal.
RESTRICTIONS: When I started the tour, I had to consider the following restrictions.
MINI-TRIPS: I went out to 3 mini tours before and after the US Tour.
