Summer is all about road trips for our family, we find traveling by van to be the most convenient with three boys in tow and they are happy passengers. We usually make out mishap free, but we knew we were setting ourselves up when our July plans had us traveling on a long weekend. When everyone in the GTA is making for their summer cottages, traffic comes to a standstill, and our 3 hour drive turned into a long, boring 5 hour tour of the 401.
