The Mittelstaedt Family
A family of crazy, whimsical people that love to travel.
Mark (CODENAME DAD): He's the tour bus driver and financer for our trips. He always makes the GPS recalculate and never lets mom drive. Although, I don't think she minds terribly. He was the one that had the idea for the first trip. And I don't think these trips are a thing we'll ever forget (we've been talking about that first one for three years).
Rhonda (CODENAME MOM): She's the navigator (even if she doesn't really know how to read the map, it's a good thing we've got a GPS). She's also the "mom" of this operation. The one that constantly asks "Did you forget anything?" and "Are you sure we're not lost?" She also is the one that took the original trip plan and made it a bit more... doable.
Danny (CODENAME DANNY): He's my little brother and my co-blogger. If you go back through the blogs of the previous trip we took, he and I both wrote a blog per day. He won't be writing one today because A) no one knows I'm writing this one and B) he's asleep, but I'm sure he'll be joining me in December when we start our trip.
April (CODENAME APRIL): That's me! One of the bloggers of these trips and the older sister of the family. I'm in college now, so I haven't been able to bug them about taking this trip, but I think they came up with the idea on their own. I'll be writing in here soon with what we're going to do when I start to know. Hopefully we can convince Kerry to make up another itinerary.
