As some of you may know, I went to Jacksonville to watch Virginia Tech play Boston College for the ACC Championship.
Here's how my trip went...
I checked out of 5th period to get ready to leave, since we were driving. It takes about nine hours from where I live to get to Jacksonville. We left around 2:10pm.
I played my PSP and listened to music on the way down. Then I watched Lord of The Rings with my brother and his friend from college. We arrived in Georgia, drove through it and got about 40 miles away from Jacksonville and spent the night.
I was trying to get on the internet with my PSP, but it sucks and wouldn't work. :P
We get up the next morning and drive on to Jacksonville.
Here's some pictures for you guys!
Here's the stadium (http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i36/tyl3r4/DSC01357.jpg)

Some of the VT fans (http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i36/tyl3r4/DSC01388.jpg)
The reasons I took this was in comparison the the BC people there, there was like maybe 600 of them with the rest of the Stadium being Virginia Tech fans. :P
Game Over 30 - 17 (http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i36/tyl3r4/DSC01396.jpg)
Go VT (http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i36/tyl3r4/DSC01399.jpg)

That's about a 9 hour trip, I usually make a 12 hour trip to Cocoa Beach every year. :P
Oh, and Carson, It won't be a waste watching the Hokies running over them. :cool:

Oh wow. I get mad when I am in a car for 2 hours. Next time I am in a car for a while I will think 'What would TnT do?'

Did you stay near the Golden Isles in Georgia? Call me a prep, but my family and I vaction there a lot.
Edit: They're about halfway between Savannah and Jacksonville, near Brunswick.

We went to a gas station in Brunswick, so we were pretty close to it when we stopped for the night. :O
I'll try to ask my dad where we stayed later.
