I need some directions!!!!

-
Best directions I can give you is drive straight to the airport, get plane tickets, rent a car when you get there.

Sorry don't know the route, just know it is a long ride and what looks like27 hours might be a lot longer with weather, traffic and pit stops

Have a good trip
 
what about using rt81 and avoiding the 95 traffic all together?


i've never used this route since i'm so close to 295 and 95 but i have quite a few friends that say its a faster easier drive.

Looking at that route you can drop off onto US15 south just outside of Harrisburg and then run on down US17 to 95. Two lanes, but some pretty country along the way. Puts you back on 95 south of the Beltway and above Richmond.
 
You won't have any trouble in Baltimore. The traffic flows really well after rush hour. If it looks like there are delays at the 95 tunnel for any reason, you can always use the 895 tunnel as an alternative. It doesn't get used as much and still dumps you out onto 95 a few miles down the road. I use it all the time because everyone goes through the 95 tunnel, probably because they don't know about the old route. DC is always a nightmare, even on weekends. I don't really have a fix for that.
 
O.K. Here are the directions I came up with after all your replies and a few PM's.
Please correct anything you see that is out of line.
Thanks to all.
