Hubby and I love taking scenic drives. How 'bout you guys? Share with me, please!

One of my favorites is the shoreline drive from Amelia Island to Jax. It's beautiful, historic, and most of it is deserted! Read about it and see the photos!

It is beautiful !!!! Sedona is breathtaking in the Spring and Summer the redrock is delightful but carrying it on your shoes is another thing. Make certain that you carry a spare pair because the red dirt will be all over the floorboard of your car. lolololo Smile Laughing Laughing

I remember Sunday family rides into the country, when I was a kid, and watching road, sky and trees.

Taking scenic drives with family members and with ones significant other has more benefits than just catching a great view. It is a fun activity the family or a couple can do together. I know this because I do this. We have several scenic roads and byways in the DC area, and within range of a pleasant drive.

I saw the last 2 secs. The Scottish countryside does indeed look fantastic. But, I couldn't wait to get to the last 2 seconds to see what we are supposed to ignore. And I have a question. Are there really zombies in Scotland? (lol)

Nope. Wasn't scared, just surprised. We have zombies in DC. They are mostly found on Capitol Hill. Some are senators, others are called congressmen.. Lucky for us drivers, most have chauffeurs (lols)

you're welcome, though sorry about that bit at the end! I live in london, so one of the best things you can do is to drive to Scotland....it's a journey into another world altogether! Breathtaking! Smile
