Wow! What a trip. Enjoyed myself so thoroughly I don't know where to start - didn't make any old ladies cry! Got to see lots of beach (blue, gorgeous, kinda mind numbing after 300 miles....)
Much shopping, silliness. Much fun. The highlights would be:

1) laughing with daughter late at night in cheesy hotel room while she stops every 2 minutes to blow her nose;

2) visiting with best friend from High School and comparing notes on what mother nature has done to our bodies and the joys of motherhood;

3) having dinner with drunken brother and hearing him describe driving 150 mph on the autobahn as 'orgasmic';

4) seeing the original 'Irises' by Van Gogh at the Getty; I could have spent a week just looking at it....

5) not thinking about/dreaming about/waking up in a cold sweat about any thing remotely connected to work;

6) appreciating home so much more because of leaving it for awhile.

I think everyone should go on a road trip at least once a year if they can. It reminds us of all the good things in the world and in our backyards.
