Hopefully, you can tell by the picture that Roy had a pretty good time on his vacation. Once we figured out appropriate drive times and break times for the road trip, he was a perfect little traveler, and we made it down to Florida without a hitch. Roy had a blast hanging out with Rusty and Rover and his aunt and uncle, and was so worn out with all the excitement that he went to sleep each night without any fuss. No baby sunburns. No huge breakdowns. He got to see two different beaches and the aquarium, went shopping, and spent lots of time playing with Lissa and Mike. Roy had so much going on, he didn't even notice that I had weaned him completely, and now he's been off the tit for almost two weeks.
So now he has three weeks to recover, and then it's off on the big road trip to Oklahoma/Texas. Twice as long a drive, but this time we'll be in a new Dodge Magnum R/T instead of a cheesy Toyota 4Runner rental with crappy seats, so hopefully it'll turn out to be as easy.

OK, How much sand did he eat? Any of it come out?
I'd say he managed to get at least four or five good handfuls swallowed down. The kiddo chugged a sippy cup full of apple juice when we got him back into the car. ;)
And yes, judging from the frequency of diaper changes, the sand did a pretty good job of cleaning out the pipes.
