Finally Home!

3901 miles later and we've made it home.  We'll be processing the good pics and uploading them soon.  The roadtrip is an American essential and if you haven't done it yet, get rolling!  Our total cost for gas was $258 (all 93-octane too) and our total cost for the trip including gas, tolls, meals, hotels (Holiday Inn Express, Hilton, or a boutique French Quarter Hotel), and front row Phillies tickets was around $1,200 or $600 per person.  For a 6-day vacation, that number will be hard to beat.  

We burned 124.627 gallons of 93-octane for a trip average of 31.3 MPG.  That's with two people, a trunk full of luggage, AC running throughout the South, and the cruise control set around 74-78MPH depending on whether the speed limit was 65 or 70MPH. 

We crossed through a total of 14 states, including: PA, MD, WV, VA, TN, AR, LA, MS, AL, FL, GA, SC, NC, and DE.  I personally had never been to TN, AR, LA, MS, AL, or GA before.  I've now been to 36/50 states.
