July is fast approaching, meaning it's time for my third annual trip to San Diego for
Comic-Con! Thanks to convention scheduling, Comic-Con is extra early this year (July 8-July 12). I'm not ready!
To add to the July excitement, my friends at
TSG.tv are hosting a Mario Marathon from July 17-24 to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Initially, my intention was to Amtrak down to Texas after Comic-Con. However, after finding out that a number of my friends are road-tripping south, I decided to take advantage of the time between Comic-Con and Mario Marathon and take a road trip of my own!
Here's my itinerary thus far:
- San Diego (for Comic-Con)
- El Paso, Texas
- San Antonio, Texas
- New Orleans, Louisiana
- Dallas, Texas (Mario Marathon)
- Santa Fe/Albuquerque, New Mexico
- Flagstaff, Arizona
- Santa Barbara, California
In the next few weeks, I'll try to post about my planning process from packing, arranging transportation, to booking the cheapest lodging possible (including some free hotels). This is probably one of my most ambitious trips yet, and it's certainly been a learning experience. It's also been an exhausting one as I've spent most of
my free time and many late nights working on my itinerary and packing. Travel planning is a lot of work, but I'm hoping that it all pays off next month!
You’ve made some good points there. It’s a good idea! Please visit http://goo.gl/CpZpLm
