Simple tips on ROAD TRIP PREPARATION Preparing a road trip can be tiring. There are a few things you can do to make it a success. | |
①SERVICE YOUR CAR Keep your car running well by getting an oil change before you head out on the road. Check the tires (轮胎) too! You'll save yourself a headache later on. | ③TAKE THINGS TO DO While road trips are definitely (确定地) about the destination (目的地), make sure you pack things for your kids to do to kill the time. At least for an hour or two. It will stop them from complaining all the time. |
②DON'T FORGET THE SNACKS The only thing worse than "Are we there yet?" is "I'm hungry!" every 2 minutes. So pack snacks. Lots of snacks. | ④STOP FREQUENTLY Half of the road trip is getting there. There is nothing fun about getting to your destination completely exhausted (筋疲力尽的). Stop at cool places, get some fresh air and take a look around. |
