If you feel like sharing, please let us know your experience. We like to know if places have changed since we’ve been there. Thanks for watching.

@ it’s the exact same but there’s mold growing on the ceiling and we here a lot of creaking in the walls

Yes, we understand that. Unfortunately we don’t have the experience to do a video on the other routes. Maybe someday…. 😊

You can find the cost at the end of the video with the breakdown.

Thank you. We're glad you found it helpful!

Good question. We use winter tires at home, and so when we go in February we do have winter tires on. You just never know the weather you are going to get. Also we have never had an issue driving in Florida with them. Here’s an article we read about tires and driving to Florida that may be helpful. Thanks for watching. jackandjillofalltires.com/why-you-need-winter-tires-when-youre-driving-to-florida/

Thanks for your kind words. We are still working on SEO but appreciate the feedback.

Thank you. I watched your video and it is very informative, and interesting. Thanks for sharing.

@@thetravellingtoques Thanks so much for watching!

We use Unipass which uses EZ pass. I think some states may be free to get one, but others you do pay for. If you plan to use it a lot for discounts then make sure you register it in the state you want the discounts for. You’ll have to check EZ pass site to check all the states from Maine, I see it doesn’t work for Connecticut, but I’m not familiar if there are toll roads there or not. Sorry, we can’t help too much along that route. Thanks for watching.

That fog can be brutal; thanks for sharing that. We usually go by Atlanta on a Saturday; not too bad for us, but if you find a good alternative, let us know.

I haven’t checked with Telus, but that’s good to know. Thanks for watching.

I guess we haven’t conpared it to enough gas prices, and we still get excited by going into Buc-ee’s. 😊 We always find something new. Thanks for watching.

Thank you for your comment, and for watching.

Good to know. We are not familiar with the court process in the US. Thanks for sharing that.

Out of Canada speeding ticket shouldn’t show up on your record in Canada.

We like taking tolls when traffic is bad, but you can avoid them. When crossing the border you will have to pay, but it can be cash. Once you’ve crossed the border, just choose avoid tolls on your map. I think it will add about 40 mins or more to your route, depending on traffic. Be careful when you’re driving, as it can be easy to accidentally take them. Don’t stress about it though, worst case they will mail you a bill. We hope you enjoy your trip, and thanks for watching.

Thanks when we are driving to Fr.Lauderdale too (for a cruise) then after Orlando to Disney & so having a car will just be easier.

What a great way to celebrate your birthday! Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching!

We agree! Thanks for watching.

Thank you. For your question on how this route is for December it will really depend on a few things. First would be how far are you going? If you are heading to Canada then the areas of concern will be the mountains in Virginia and West Virginia, these are the areas with a lot of curvy roads. We are used to driving in the snow but not the types of curves so we wouldn’t want to take this route if the weather isn’t clear. There can be fog or ice as well that may make your drive unpleasant The worst part of this drive in poor weather conditions that we hear about is that if you feel it is too much and you want to stop, you may have to wait about 40 mins until the next city. So driving this route will depend on your comfort with both of these conditions. Also our opinion would be to suggest not driving in the dark if you take this route. Whichever way you go, have fun.

Thank you for letting us know about why you clicked. That’s useful for us. Enjoy your trip, and safe travels.

Thank you, glad you liked it!

Thank you for sharing this.

Damn the north and south border are about the same. Kph, expensive gas ,

We hope you enjoyed your road trip. Thanks for watching.

Coming from VA, you would drive through Niagara before Toronto. Niagara is immediately after crossing the border. If you do go to downtown Toronto , don’t take the 407. While staying downtown Toronto is convenient so be prepared for Hotel prices to be high. If you want to save money I would suggest staying a little further out on the subway line. Thanks for watching.

The 407 is an ETR “express toll route” and it’s very expensive

Lol, I didn’t even know it was a name. Never too old to learn. 😁

Thanks for watching!

Good to plan it that way! Thanks for watching.

Thank you for sharing that. For some reason when we converted it, we listed it as CDN $. It would have made more sense to show the US $

I’m glad you had a chance to experience it years ago, and as you saw it hasn’t changed much. 😊 We got lucky on this visit and the city was quiet for Toronto. I hope your daughter enjoyed her visit to The Old Spaghetti Factory.

Thank you for letting us know, and thanks for watching.

That sure would discourage you from wanting to cross again. They do ask a lot of questions, but I guess each border, and agent can be different. I hope you get a chance to visit again with a different experience. Thanks for watching.

2 years ago, i drove from Seattle to Vancouver, Canadian officers asked a lot of dumb questions and when i came back Americans welcomed me back🤣

Oh wow, that’s good to know! That would have been a free flight for us. Thank you for letting us know. I heard they just announced seat selection, and larger seats are coming soon. 😀

@@thetravellingtoques I love flying with them and yea aslong as they keep free bags in good

We didn’t notice what it was. Thanks for pointing it out.

We agree that something needs to be done. Having the title of the city with the worst traffic in North America is not one we want. Thanks for watching.

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.

Thank you. I would check the weather in the mountains before you head out. We hope you enjoy your trip. Thanks for watching.

We agree, it doesn’t give that “chain” vibe. Glad you enjoyed it too. It’s always nice to have a reason for a road trip. We hope you get to try another location. Thanks for watching.

Wow, that's a memory! We're happy we could bring that back. 😊 Thanks for watching.

Thank you, we are glad you enjoyed it! We haven’t been to that museum yet, we’ll have to check that out.

As far as we know they didn’t change it, but maybe they just didn’t tell us. Thanks for watching.

Thank you, we are glad it was helpful. We hope you enjoy your trip.

Oh no! When we were there a few years ago it was fine. What about it has you scared?

lol! I’m glad it wasn’t the condition of the place. Happy to hear it all worked out for you.

We chose this location for the “From slavery to freedom” tour that was offered. Our intention on this video was to show bits of what you will see and learn at this location with a small piece of “from slavery to freedom” tour. I understand this did not go into all the details that were shared, and that is why we also posted the 2nd video with Joe’s full educational talk. I do feel that much more time should be given for this and there was so much more that could have been discussed. Thank you for your comments, as it is important for us to understand how our videos may be perceived verse our intentions.

It is amazing to me how people ignore the fact that slaves were abducted and sold into slavery by their own people.

We would. We use our unipass every time we drive to Florida. Thanks for watching.

From what we remember we had to pay extra for train tour/house tour and if wanted Audubon tour. I see the tickets this year include everything except for the house tour for $35. This would definitely be worth it to me. We personally wouldn’t pay the extra for the house tour. Thanks for watching.

We really enjoyed driving and did see a lot. We hope you can visit Canada someday, lots to see here too.😊 Thanks for watching.

Sorry, but we are not very familiar with Mexico’s economy. As for Canada, our living conditions are very similar to the United States. We have a range of incomes from those on government assistance to the very wealthy. Not sure if this helps, but for Ontario the minimum wage is $16.55 per hour while the living wage calculation for the city of Toronto says you need $25.05 per hour. Thanks for watching.

Thank you for this information, we just catch and release when we fish. Thanks for watching.

Our choice would be to get a pass. Much easier and then you are not limited to certain non tolls roads, or worrying about not taking toll roads that only accept passes or toll by plate which costs more. Enjoy your trip.
