Man, can I remember those long, boring road trips as a kid! In fact, my father’s idea of a “vacation” was just getting in the car and driving around aimlessly!
I now realize why they dragged Elizabeth along instead of Mike: with his writing expertise, he could have done a scathing expose on a seemingly endless road trip with boring parents and a bratty kid sister—and maybe even gotten it published!
Must have gotten a late start as it’s 3 hr 58 min (393.5 km/ 244.5 mi) from Mississauga to Sudbery. No wonder it’s going to take them 4 days to get to Winnepeg.
Yeah, she’s getting a little long in the tooth to be traveling in a car with the family, you get a little too tied to your friends and social life by that age. All part of growing up and being a miserable teenager. Is there any other kind ??? ;-)
It would behoove Elizabeth to treat her parents with respect, as Lawrence and the Enjos do to their parents. All Elizabeth needs to say are simple phrases

Not sure if that’s her revenge for forcing her to go with them….

Nothing like a little chocolate to bring out the pupils in her parents.

She was probably so angry that she didn’t even think about it.

“We should easily make it to Sudbury tonight”. Stompin’ Tom Connors would have been pleased to hear that.

Why would you give chocolate to a kid on a long road-trip? Only going to make April hyper

Our son always slept in the car during road trips. Fortunately that doesn’t happen when he’s the driver.

Interesting that they are doing the northern route, not through the States

Wondering how slow John drives, North Bay to Sudbury is only a 1.5 hour drive….

Elizabeth’s mood seems to have improved. Up till npw I’d have thought it was she who needed to be kept happy.

“No, thank you”
“Yes, please”
“Anything you want, Mistress Elly and Massa John”

Apparently Y’ll have never read “Detroit : God’s Greatest Cityby Joe Clark, H.B.S.S”but that was from the early 50’s I think.

When a town name suddenly becomes meaningful because of a TV show, wonder if they’ll catch a Sudbury Blueberry Bulldogs game.
