How to get to WI from CA- The Long Way

So, we had a family reunion last week. Originally, it was going to be in Maryland, but then it got switched (very last minute) to Wisconsin due to some health problems. We had bought plane tickets to MD, and we couldn't get them switched, so away we flew! That was around 8 p.m. CA time.

After a layover in Denver (only about 30 minutes), we got to the Washington Dulles Airport in Virginia around 5:30 a.m. VA time. From there, we drove for about 16 hours to WI.

Good thing for us we had 6 drivers, and only two cars (we went with an aunt and two cousins). It was certainly an adventure, but we made it! In 24 hours, I was in 9 different states and one district. Doesn't that just sound so fun? Here's the list:

California

Colorado

Virginia

Washington D.C.

Maryland

Pennsylvania

Ohio

Iowa

Illinois

Wisconsin

We all survived to tell the tale, and nobody's head got taken off, which means that it was a pretty successful trip! Not only did we drive for many hours, but we got to drive through at least 3 big storms- one of which included flash flood warnings and tornado warnings- and lived to tell the tale. I will get some pictures on here if I can, and then you will see the just how much of an adventure we had!
