Maritimers driving to Florida
For those Canadian Maritimers that head south in Dec/Jan, where do you over night the first couple nights? Do you stay in motels or hunker down in the RV somewhere?

For the first 4 yrs, we stayed in campgrounds; then switched to hotels because ..... open campgrounds are few; after a day on the road, we didn't like waiting 30 minutes for the RV to warm up; setting up and breaking down campsites in 30 degree temps wasn't fun; paying full fare for a limited facilities seemed silly. We now stay in a hotel with an indoor pool; nice area for RV parking; a steak house nearby; and a 24-hour Mickey D's next door if we want to leave before the hotel's free breakfast is ready. We bring in a small overnight bag, and lock up the RV. It costs us about $50 more, and we think the convenience is worth it. Second night we found the same facilities (without the in-door pool) for only $50/night, which is only $10 more than a campground. Camp on!
