Thesis Statement: Route from New York to Florida with amazing stops on the way, such as Cape May, Chincoteague Island, Chesapeake Bay Tunnel/Bridge, Virginia Beach, Charleston, Savannah and our final point – Jacksonville.

    While driving on the highway and you notice a hill, therefore you know you are in Tallahassee. What also makes Tallahassee different from West Palm Beach is it is the capital. Tallahassee is the capital of Florida and several citizens visit the capital to see what it is like. A lot of paper work goes through the capital before it’s shipped out to the head person in charge. Moving along, two of the state’s biggest universities are in Tallahassee; Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University and Florida State University. These two universities have attracted many people throughout the years. Florida State is known for its football team, while across the tracks Florida A&M is known for its band and sits on the highest of seven hills. Aside from the schools, Tallahassee has no beaches to go to on the weekends or just for fun. Most people drive an hour or two to go to a beach. Last difference is the highway the citizens’ use is called I-10, whereas in Palm Beach its I-95. I-10 runs east and west and the exits are further spread…

    Road tripping is supposed to be fun and exciting. It gives me an opportunity to jump in the car and explore something new. In the summertime 2008 when I got my 99’ Dodge Intrepid back from the previous accident, I begun my road trip to Yellowstone National Park in early morning. As I drove down the road, I soon realized that I had never been anywhere alone before. This was a new feeling for me, one of strength and fear rolled into one. My trip was nerve wrecking because I faced a certain problems with my car that I have never experienced before, but it taught me a lot about how to maintain my car.…
