7 Inevitable Things That Happen On Family Road Trips

Summer is the time for road trips. Family road trips. And family road trips can sometimes equal one part awesomeness and one part misery, depending on how crazy your family is. How many of these things have you experienced on your family road trips?

1. Are we there yet?

When you’re traveling with kids, you’ll hear this on repeat until you’ve reached your destination. Starting precisely 5 minutes after you pull out of your driveway.

2. Arguing about where to eat.

This is especially worse when you have a large family. Trying to make everyone happy seems nearly impossible.

3. Awkward family photos.

Best. Thing. Ever. You might be embarrassed by them now, but you’ll appreciate them decades down the road.

4. Oversharing.

Usually its mom or dad or even worse, one of your grandparents. Do they really think you want to hear the story about what happened in the hotel room on their wedding night!?

5. Sibling rivalry.

Enough said.

6. There’s always that one drunk relative.

If your family is the boozy type, it’s inevitable that someone will get too drunk and act a fool. It could be your underage 15 year old brother sneaking the booze or it could be your 80 year old great aunt who gets drunk and narrowly escapes falling into the campfire. Free entertainment for everyone.

7. Memories to last a lifetime.
