So are you wondering how it's possible to travel with 7 people in one minivan? Here's how!First you buy some Starbucks coffee for those that are grouchy or tired. Next you pack an ice chest full of snacks, lunch, and drinks. You'll still have to stop at McDonalds or Dariy Queen to use the restroom and have a treat. Then you need a DVD player to keep them from asking "are we there yet?" or "I'm hungry."
As for packing, make sure you pack in small size bags and remember you can buy groceries at your destination. Lastly, buy a rooftop luggage carrier that will fit at least one small adult. Okay, just kidding! It should fit about 5 bags so there is enough room for BOB the stroller, 2 portable beds, supply of diapers, and all other belongings.
Once in New Orleans, Grandma used her walking sticks, the boys rode in BOB the stroller, or enj
oyed walking. When we traveled on the street cars they wore their animal backpacks so we could hold onto them in the crowd.
