It's no surprise that I am a huge movie buff. I will talk
movies with anyone. It's one of my favorite things to do with family and
friends. I also make many movie references and quote them quite often. I also
love to travel so movies that feature traveling is a win win in my book. You
have a couple different types of travel movies, the funny silly ones and the
serious dramas. I had a lot of fun creating a list of road trip movies. There
is really something for everything. They are mostly for adults though. I was
able to even use a couple of my favorites. One of them is a lesser known weird
yet amazing movie that I randomly saw on broadcast TV years and years ago. I
was just flipping channels and I didn’t even have cable. I immediately
fell in love with it and ordered it from Amazon that night. The other is a
newer movie, that I heard wasn’t too great. I ended up loving it and have
watched it every time it has been on HBO.
I think that it's fun to share ordinary experiences with movie characters
like traveling. Flying wasn't as popular when I was growing up so my mom,
sister and I spent a lot of time in the car. I have luckily only had a few
weird experiences while traveling. Nothing compared to the movies on the list.
One year we were on our way to Gulf Shores and had to take shelter from a
tornado in a Dairy Queen bathroom. I am from the Midwest, so I know tornado
safety in my sleep. It's engrained in us from birth. That's probably the craziest
thing that has happened to me traveling. We have also ended up in other states
but that's no big deal.
