And the Sign Said…

Maid-Rite drive-ins have been feeding the Midwest since 1926. That’s a lot of sandwiches.

The restaurant chain is headquartered in Iowa, but has additional locations in Nebraska, Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, and Ohio. Carry out beer is not available in all stores, but it should be.

There’s nothing better than good food on a family road trip. While the bigger chains are convenient and often necessary, it’s always nice to try someplace local. What are some of the regional favorites in your area?

Holiday Fun at Disneyland Resort

When you think of Disneyland you probably think of magic. That’s because they have a great PR team. Also, magic. Christmas brings to mind similar thoughts, but with more sugarplums. See where I’m going here?

The holidays at Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, CA are as magical as you could possibly hope for. Whether it’s meeting Santa in person, seeing your favorite Disney characters dressed in their holiday best, or catching the festive parade, fireworks and other events, there is Disney-wrapped Christmas fun throughout the resort (that includes Disneyland, the Disney hotels, Downtown Disney and Disney’s California Adventure).

But that’s not all! Read More »

Happy Thanksgiving!

This never gets old. The greatest Thanksgiving moment ever aired on television was on WKRP in Cincinnati, and it’s still funny.

Please note, no turkeys were hurt in the filming of this episode or the writing of this post.

If you’re traveling, be safe! If you’re waiting on some grub, then turn off the computer and go enjoy your friends and family. Also, football. And the dog show.

From all of us at the UpTake Vacations Blog to all of you in the internet, Happy Thanksgiving!

To the Pies!

Just a few more days and many of you will be surrounded by family and friends and lots of food. Pace yourself, for at the end of the line waits the pie. Don’t keep the pie waiting.

Mmm, pie.

If you’re traveling, travel safe.
