I-95 from Baltimore Maryland to Florida

Question

I am going on road-trip from Baltimore Maryland to Florida what can I on the way near the I-95 that's not too expensive?

Answer 1

Driving I-95 from Baltimore to Florida is a very long day by itself. If you do it straight, its about 12 hours or so.

I-95 passes through (or around) some major cities:

• Washington, DC (even a quick drive along the "Mall" will let you see the White House, Capitol, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, etc...) Price: GAS.
• Richmond, VA (Again, drive along "Monument Avenue") Price: GAS
• Savannah, GA (Here, drive through the main town for some antebellum gardens) Price: Gas
• St. Augustine, FL. (the oldest city in the United States, and site of an old Spanish fort.) Price: Gas

Note, no disrespect to Fayetteville, but unless you have a burning desire to see Ft. Bragg, it's a miss.

Going through North Carolina and South Carolina, however, the main attraction is impossible to miss. Like Wall Drug in South Dakota, Pedro's South of the Border has hundreds of miles of tacky billboards. It's a dive, but it is I-95's dive. If you have kids, they'll make you stop anyways.

• Pedro's South of the Border Price: Your sanity, dignity, and taste.
