so, i did a smaller vacation earlier this summer , back in may to jamaica. it was cool. nice.

Aside from it being an amazing memorable road trip, it was a great time spent with my Dad. I wouldn't trade the experience for anything in the world.
This is not all of the exact routing, but an idea of the circle we made around North America on my Dad's 2011 Harley.
