Longer, but cheaper and faster.

I have taken I 78 thru Harrisburg and have also taken the Garden State to the Tappan Zee. We found that we like getting to I-81 and traveling thru the Shenandoah area.
I'm with Albany most of my late father's family lived in Bergen County, NJ and we always traveled over the Tappan Zee. Like a New Yorker I'll never call it the Mario Cuomo bridge.
So far as staying in Florida all summer to avoid the drive, no thanks I'd rather spend a few hours traveling to the north than staying in the furnace of Central Florida for months. We love both New England and Florida but there's a season for living in each.
