Yesterday, my brother-in-law brought us to accompany him delivering his frozen high-end goodies. I did not expect that the road trip would take nine hours. Regardless, I enjoyed the joyride and seeing the places while having the trip by car. Besides, I am not the driver.
Once we arrived at home, I went straight to my room. Due to exhaustion, I slept like a baby.
Do you like joyriding?

Joyriding
I see nothing joyous about sitting in a car for 9 hours.
Not my idea of fun
I would get stiff and sore

@Ineeddentures I think 42.2 km one way only.

@Shavkat That sounds even funner.but no sleeping like a baby on that one, unless pull off to side of road.

@crossbones27 I agree. It will be a roller coaster traveling by it, though.

I'm glad you enjoyed the trip!
Pretty and I used to go driving all the time just to get out of the house for a while. I'd let her choose which direction we drove and when we turned onto secondary roads. Pretty always tried to get me lost but I used to drive all over when I was a teenager so it's hard to get me lost on roads I know. 
We haven't gone driving like that in years.

@DaddyEvil As for me, I like getting lost and find the place as planned.

@Shavkat I always hated getting lost. I prefer to do things with a friend so we can share finding new-to-us things.

@Shavkat Baguio to Manila and vice-versa usually takes 4 - 5 hours. Plus, there are first class buses that are really comfortable so the ride ain't that hard.

@Shavkat yes, the best activity in bus, during long hours is just to sleep.
