What is the furthest you have driven, either by yourself, or with a team of drivers?

From Virginia to Maine, with a 2 week old baby. He tried to help, but he couldn't reach the pedals.

Wait! Albequerque (sp) to Maine. With my son's father and my son. Longest f-ing week of my f-ing life.

I've taken the kids on vacation from Indy to NJ a few times without the hubby, about a 13 hour drive. Stopping for necessaries, but driving until I get there or get home.

Charlotte to Dads is a close 2nd: 12 hours or so.

920 Miles from here to my sister in Upper Michigan. 13 Hours. I've done it by myself both ways 6 times, 4 of those times with just the little girls in the car with me.

It's fun!
