[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like most people who do the drive don't do overnight? I can't see making the drive with no overnight stop.[/quote]

Personally, I prefer to do FL (or ME) in a single day. Stopping wastes two days. [/quote]

I don't know, I feel like you are still wasting time by not stopping.  You have to pack the day before and adjust your sleeping schedule to get up super early in the morning.  Then the day after the drive you are sleeping in and generally still spent.

I think it is just as good to stay overnight and then time the drive with the check-in time of wherever you are staying.  Let's say that the total trip is 14 hours.  You could maybe do 2pm-8pm on the road, stay overnight, and then time the next day (8am-4pm) so that it is right at a normal check-in time.  That still gets you out of DC before the rush hour chaos and is a more relaxing trip.[/quote]

2pm heading down towards Richmond? Yikes.

And, after all of that, you're [i]still[/i] tired the next day. It's adding a travel day to stop.

We also don't like packing an overnight bag. Or leaving all of our bags in our car overnight. Plus, sometimes we bring a cooler.

We prefer to get it all done in one day to minimize travel days, but obviously YMMV.
