Summer Road Trip

Ok peoples.. here's the dealio... this Summer I shall be embarking on a road trip!
Leaving Victoria, BC, Canada and heading to Toronto, ON, Canda.. but the plan is to drive through the US of Eh in order to visit a friend in Montana (don't ask me where in Montana, coz I don't know!)...

Because I am super kitchy, a total cheeseball and pretty much like to behave like I have no class... I am super inclined to hit up as many of them "World's Biggest" attractions as humanly possible without (obviously) having to go way way out of the way... I think luckily many of these things are by the side of highways...

I looked up staying in Wigwam (Teepee) Motels, but most of them are in the more Southern States and that is pretty much out of the question land due to out of the way...

So, what I want from you... People of the States, or People who have Embarked on Similar Journeys... is to gimme some suggestions!! Places to go, places to eat.. where to stay.. what to see... I don't think our timeline has allowance for many "extensive" activities... like hikes etc. but quirky museums, fun parks to stop at to stretch the legs, delicious places to eat... are all welcome...

This is the route that google maps suggested... but I am happy to take suggestions to detour!! Or if anyone wants a visitor!! :D

Get your thinking caps on peoples!! Ask your families, ask your friends, get out them travel journals!!
No idea too big or too small... just throw things at me!!

I've already decided the giant red wagon in Spokane, Washington is a must!!

  1. I used to live in Montana! I'd say there isn't much to see in Montana other than nature, but if you can spare a couple extra hours definitely go through Yellowstone National Park! I lived there one summer and it was incredible! Bison, elk, deer and all other creatures would cross the road right in front of us and we saw a Moose one night! It was definitely one of my favorite summers! I can't wait to hear all about your trip!!!
