Option 1: The Great American Road Trip
Buckle up, buttercup! This is your classic "see the sights, smell the smells" kind of journey. Grab your favorite tunes, a carload of snacks, and a healthy dose of optimism.

For a more civilized experience, consider taking the train. It's a bit slower, but you get to enjoy the comfort of a seat and maybe even a little legroom. Just don't expect to be able to recreate the "Polar Express" experience.
Pro Tip: Pack snacks and drinks. Train food can be... questionable.
