We're going to Florida in Nov. to visit my husband's best friend. I figured we'd drive down (we just made this trip in Feb.) but all of a sudden I had a thought-why not take the autotrain? We've never done this and it sounds like fun. Hubby is not opposed and thinks it might be a good idea, too. I am so smart! LOL [Big Grin]

Hey Vicki,

Be flexible with your travel plans and be sure to check the fares for the Auto-Train in BOTH directions. Sometimes in the 'cold' months you will find it significantly cheaper to travel northbound on the AT. If this is the case in November, you might want to drive down and take AT on the first leg headed back.

Be sure to let us know how your trip was after it's over!
