Spring Zing 2007

Just want a heads up on whose going and what the plan is as far as when we are leaving and coming back. I'm going to give it another 2-3 weeks and then I'll register..IIRC passport is required for Canada? (lame). What are we looking at as far as roads and routes plus the biggest thing, how long of a drive this time..lol post up!

I can bet you that my passport has more visa's along with entry/exit stamps then you can imagine

Well you got me on the Visa's part. American citizens don't need visa's, at least I don't think so. But yea your probably right....mine only gets an entry/exit stamp from the Bahama's every year. BUT...I will be going to Ireland very soon so that's 1 more stamp

passports are not required this year to drive through Canada ...

if you go to google maps and punch in some addresses that should be the route we take ...


there is talk before of leaving weds morning and staying over in Buffalo that night then finishing the drive to Grand Rapids instead of driving it straight.


that is what was cover in the last SZ thread ...

You lucky people and your passports. :tongue:
I didn't bother getting one since it's not required for this year and I rarely travel. (changing that this year!)

I'm game for the two-day trip, would be pretty awesome to hang out in the Falls. I might stop by Syracuse and visit Jack since it's on the way and catch up with you guys.

i want to head out there with you guys...i just dont know if i can a. take that long ass drive b. get the time off

[Goonz SVT]

a. take that long ass drive

this years drive will be much shorter, Im thinking like what 10 -12 hours? Plus im not in the mood to stop anywhere to be honest with you guys, once I get one the road, no spending nights because days are precious to me and the time I take off
