How to plan a road-trip

So, myself and my father have decided to embark on a road trip in just under two weeks. Originally we considered the idea of going to Phoenix to visit my grandpa, but then decided because of time constraints we should do something else.

Now the question was... "what can we do for 4-5 days, somewhere warm?"

What we have ended up with can simply be called the "Ultimate Guys Road Trip".

On the 27th we take off and fly to sunny Fort Lauderdale, Florida. We pick up our Ford Mustang Convertible and drive to the Bankatlantic Center. After watching the Leafs play the Panthers we will have to check out the down town.

Thursday morning will start off at the Beach and then work our way back to Fort Lauderdale to watch some MLB spring training. Today's game will be the Florida Marlins taking on the Baltimore Orioles.

After this game we hit the open road to drive 270 miles to Tampa Bay with our top down.

Friday will be a busy day. At 1:05pm we will attend the Blue Jays taking on the Detroit Tigers in Dunedin. That evening we will watch as the Leaf's take on the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Finally on Saturday we will watch the Blue Jays take on the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. This marks the end of our road trip, but not before we crash every bar we can find in the Tampa Bay area!

We fly off Sunday afternoon to return to a cold, snowy Toronto.
