The last two years of lockdowns and no travel may have impacted our vacation planning abilities to a considerable extent. So, if you are finally planning a road trip, be it in country or abroad, you may just be missing out on some essentials given the excitement of travelling again. One of the best things about road trips is their unpredictability. But, when it comes to your ride, it should not only be predictable but also reliable. Choose your ride carefully keeping the terrain, roads, landscape, and weather in mind. If you are travelling with kids, you might want to have a few things handy besides music and movies. Books, craft games, journals, and crayons are things that can keep them busy, and you can focus on the road during the journey. Even if you are going on a brief road trip wherein you are sure to come across eateries on the way, packing a few snacks never hurt anyone.
