Hey everyone, here's our annual NJ to FL road trip! We hit the road from New Jersey around midnight and drove straight through to St. Augustine. Fortunately, we didn't encounter any rain, traffic jams, or accidents this year. I hope you enjoy the journey, and stay tuned for more Florida vlogs coming soon!

one tip i'll give you is be mindful of your stops if you keep stopping and dilly dally around 20 minutes each time adds up

[@JoeJoker-tt2xt]

I love that you spend time with your family we do the same thing many Disney vacations under our belt also. I've watch your videos for years keep up the great work and most of all have a great time and stay safe.

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@NikholaRichter]

I needed this video today, thx for taking us along!

[@ECamp8]

Thanks for making these videos. I’ve been driving to Disney from the Philly area for the last 7-8 years with my family of 4. I appreciate your tips. My next drive is December. Thanks!

[@MichelleR715]

I want to thank you for making these videos. We drove down from RI, in March, and your tips were so helpful! We only had one scare and yes it was in DC, but we got through it!

[@conniemccollam2605]

Good morning fun family. Loved the ride,not even tired. Thanks. Have a great time, but you always do.

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

Thanks Connie we are having a good time despite the heat advisory all week but luckily not to much rain at all! Thanks for watching.

[@phinsfan2163]

Yes!!! Great Vlog...looking forward to the Disney vlogs.

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

Coming soon! Hahaha thanks for watching FL is hottttt it’s been 99 degrees here. We still managed to record in the parks though.

[@KaysoCheese]

Great to see your vlogs again!! The Texas cheesesteak burrito at Buc-ee's is to die for too if you ever eat lunch or dinner there!

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

Thank you I will definitely try that cheesesteak burrito when we stop on the way back!

[@danielholovacko4064]

@@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV - please share you’re opinion also, we are going down in December and that sounds like an option for me

[@shortykeyz]

Good vlog 🎉

[@tomboyd9053]

Great driving time on the trip from Jersey to Florida. You and the vehicle were one... 😂. Can't wait for some video from St. Augustine and Disney. Try to stay cool... Seems to be a record heat for summertime. 😅 My son and I will be heading to Wildwood on Aug. 21. It's suppose to be decent weather for our week's stay. 🎡🎢⛱️

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

Yes the heat in Florida is awful this year lol We will be back in Jersey soon I'm hoping to get to Wildwood ASAP! Enjoy your stay, Thanks for watching.

I can't wait to take a road trip with my 2 boys

[@jaybig360]

Great video , I’m leaving nj at midnight this Sunday to Florida. I hate hate Bridges any way to avoid them when going to Florida 😅. Great videos sir

[@Rich-mb6bw]

I always get gas at truck stops on road trips. Its always people there. Just a tip

[@bigoliversinterestingchann4416]

The best song that you should use on these trips for background music is Another Night by Real McCoy. It is the best travel song out there and just take a minute and listen to it.

[@danielholovacko4064]

Another great road trip vlog. Hope there’s another coming back Florida to NJ soon

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

Thank you, we will be posting a drive back soon!

[@carmelinafaraci8225]

No music...loved the music on these trips. Actually a few of your older vlogs were corrupted and different music was added....odd hope you can fix

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

Yes KZbin made me replace the music even though the music was copyright free was such a hassle. Luckily I figured out the whole copyright situation and can add music so I’m in the process of fixing the last drive I did and one of the older ones. Thanks for watching!

[@ChrisrZ28]

Just how in the hell do you manage to fall asleep that day prior? . Your videos have me thinking about leaving hudson valley NY for Florida at around midnight or so also

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

lol it is not easy at all to tell you the truth I’m lucky if I get a couple hours of sleep. I have been taking that drive every year for 15+ years and the only way to do it is Midnight!

[@ChrisrZ28]

@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV . Yep I agree. Gonna take your advice..however I'm a little bit more north. Probably going to take PA 81 to winchester then east into Fredericksburg and catch 95 bypassing the mess that I'd DC

[@Brooklynyc918]

Who looks after the dogs while on vacation?

[@eccentricsmithy2746]

Why the GSP and not the turnpike?

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

We take GSP to the Turnpike then 95 all the way down. I think its a little faster then taking all side roads or local highways to the Turnpike.

[@carolebellini3677]

Great trip😂

[@user-rx6cr5iz1s]

Sitting in car that long makes you feel discusting when you finally arrive. Not worth it

[@FamilyTimeVlogsFTV]

That’s a good point as well

[@TheMastersCrumbs]

Family looks annoyed with you
