How far do you travel to get to the World?

[copcarguyp71]

So in reading the boards here over the past five years I have always wondered where everyone hails from. I know there is a lot of activity in the overnight hours (overnight to me here in the US) so it got me to thinking...why not chime in on where you are from so we can all get to know each other a little better.

Sorry if this is a reheated idea (I don't remember seeing one before) but at least it is better than another ECV discussion

Ahhh I love Macon, it's our stop for the night when we make the long trek from Michigan (30 miles from Detroit). We'll be in Macon next Friday then off to THE WORLD!!

It seems to be a popular spot for families bound for WDW! FYI - major construction on I-75 right now from where I-16 joins to exit 169. Traffic shouldn't be too bad unless you come through between 5-6pm, though.

 

[DaddyDisneyMan]

If my calculations are right, we will be heading into Macon around 8-9 pm next Friday night.
