We have about a 10 hour drive and I don't know if I would ever fly. I like the convenience of my own car, being able to come and go when I want, and pack as much luggage as I want. One trip we were having so much fun we added 2 more nights. You could never do that with a plane to catch. But we almost always stay 8 to 10 nights. I dont know if I would want to drive all the way there for a quick 4 or 5 day trip. I agree with others that the drive is part of the experience. As a child we drove everywhere and some of our families favorite stories come from the car ride to and from Disney. :mickey:
