Wendy’s and Penelope’s Big Adventure


We are two bears being driven around on an epic road trip.

We have traveled over 13,000 miles!  Here's an example of part of our trip in our Furkot Trip Planning application.


We have slept in 50 different beds of which 29 were AirBnbs.

One of our favorites was the Amish Farmhouse. Love the quilt!
We have spent the following number of nights in each these 22 states:

Additionally, we traveled in Washington, DC, Alabama, and Mississippi. 
We missed the states of Indiana, Kentucky, and West Virginia.  Maybe next time!

We are the real planners for this trip.  We use Furkot Road Trip Planner, Atlas Obscura, History Here, Google Maps, Google Outlook, YELP and Trip Advisor.

This Google map summary shows we went to many places. 
We didn't get to go on the trip out west.


We help with chores, too!

We did laundry!

We helped to wash our car!
We enjoy looking at pictures!  We now have 9500 pictures to enjoy.  

We've seen lots of license plates -- these were our top 3 favorites:

No. 3
No. 2
No. 1 (OF COURSE!)

We like signs, too!

 
 

We saw these signs down at the beach and were quite confused as to which door to enter!  We decided to go into the Gulls bathroom.



We weren't to sure what these goats were up to,but they looked like they were having fun.


Loved this bird sculpture that we saw at the Dali Museum:


Wendy thought this sculpture looked a lot like me:

Here's a joke we saw in Lafayette, Louisiana and thought you would enjoy it:


We really had fun at Pensacola Beach, the white sands are awesome!
