Trip report

Here's more.Roads generally were in good shape.Alot better than when we took our trip we took to Arizona in 1998. The roads in the south were generally better than those in the northeast.The only place I would avoid is going around Atlanta.This is the second time we went around Atlanta and next time I will avoid it like the plaque.We went through around 5am to avoid rush hour but there was still alot of traffic.People in the south seem to be generally a little nicer and willing to go out of their way to help.At the Newport/Smoky Mtn KOA,I needed to get one of our propane tanks refilled.I went to the office and paid for it.One of the employees drove me back to my site,picked up the tank and took it back,filled it and delivered it back to our site.Never experienced that before.Gas prices went from a high of $3.59 to a low of $2.98.The lowest price we paid was $3.08.Generally the places with the lowest prices were full making it hard to get in and out of.My first priority is finding a place with easy in and out,not lowest price.Campground rates went from a low of $18.00 a night for water and electric at Colleton State Park in SC,to a high of $90 a night at Disney.The others were in the $30 range.WE spent 2.5 days at the Magic Kingdom and one day at Animal Kingdom.Did the Hoop de Do Review and Princess and Prince make ups for the grand kids at the Bibby it Boobity Botique.I thought both were worth it.The number of baby coaches at Disney is incredible.There are so many that some attractions have full time employees to manage them.I counted almost 100 of them at one attraction.And this was during a time when park visitation was suppose to be low.I can't imagine what it would be like when visitation is high.You had to watch out for the 2 wide strollers when walking in crowds.Wait times were usually pretty short and the lines kept moving.
