What would you prioritise on a cross-Canada roadtrip with an eight year old?
What would you prioritise on a cross-Canada roadtrip with an eight year old?
Moving from Quebec to the west coast and driving from Quebec City to Vancouver from the 22nd to the 28th. We don't have a huge amount of time for stops, and we definitely want to hit up the Royal Tyrrell museum in Drumheller.
What would you folks suggest as must-see stops along the way? Campsites, lunch stops, places we could spend fifteen minutes or an hour along the way? We'll be visiting a few friends in Winnipeg and either Calgary or Edmonton; there's only about an 80km difference between hitting Ottawa (which my daughter has never seen) vs Abitibi (which neither of us has visited). My current thought is to drive hard at the beginning to get through Ontario and the prairies, and take it a bit slower through the west since there's so much natural beauty to see.
Thanks in advance for ideas!

Drinking myself to sleep every night.
It sounds like you're going through a tough time, friend, my condolences - and a virtual hug. Humans generally find it very therapeutic to talk about what's on their mind with someone they trust, so consider trying that. If you don't have such people in your life (I don't usually, so there's no judgement there), perhaps find a relevant or mental health-related community where you can open up a bit (perhaps using a different account, if you prefer. May the drinks be optional versus necessary soon <3
Thanks for reaching out citizen. I do not have a drinking problem nor do I dislike children. The condition I do apparently suffer from though is having a sense of humour that only appeals to a very select few.
I don't think I've ever been addressed as "citizen" before - that's pretty funny :). I don't necessarily think your sense of humour is that niche, but to translate well in this space (versus in real life, where you have facial expressions and prosody to indicate to others you're joking), some consideration for Poe's Law might help bring the laughs
