Summer Road Trip

Momoko and the kids took off on a summer road trip to visit grandpa today. They were supposed to leave at 6pm. However Little Kat saw bad traffic on Google Maps. So they delayed departure for a few hours. That gave them time to Door Dash some Arbys. It also gave Kit Kat one last chance to play with her gerbil.

The family added grandpa to the phone app that let's you locate other people in your family. This is intended to be a temporary addition during the trip. They decided to drive Little Kat's car, as it has Apple CarPlay. Kit Kat did not want a lot of miles added to her relatively new car.

Little Kat brought his mini car fridge to keep small things cool. The kids recommended driving straight through. The whole trip should take 20+ hours if there are not stops or bad traffic. They don't plan to stop anywhere except for quick food stops.

Momoko thought they could have a few hotel stays along the way. But the kids want to get there, get it done, and return ASAP. My own gas tank was running on empty. So when the family left for their trip, I went to Exxon to fill up. I saw the family there filling up Little Kat's car.
