Blue Ridge Parkway
North Carolina

If you plan an taking a drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway, keep three things in mind. First make sure you have lots and lots of space on your digital camera. Plan on making lots of stops and doing a little hiking because some of the small hikes are more than worth the effort. And last but definitely not least, plan on the trip taking a lot longer than you expect. To cover a little more than 120 miles we used most of 2 days and wished we had more time.
