Road Trip with @Enterprise Rent-A-Car {plus giveaway}

It’s that time of the winter where cabin fever has surely set in and many families are itching for a road trip adventure. Here in Louisiana we’ve just celebrated the Mardi Gras Carnival season, which is actually a family friendly experience. With Mardi Gras season over, it doesn’t mean the end of Good Times, it’s only a prelude to the springtime festivals and fun happening all around Louisiana.

With just a few weeks left of winter, we’re chomping at the bit to get out of the house and take a winter road trip. While my family loves to take road trips in our own vehicle, we realized that my little VW Beetle isn’t always the best option for an entire family. The past few road trips we decided to take advantage of the opportunity and put my vehicle in for regular maintenance and we’ve been utilizing vehicles from Enterprise Rent-A-Car. It not only saves the mileage on our own vehicle, but also cuts down on some of the normal wear and tear of owning a vehicle. And the bonus? We know the family is safe and secure on the road and that help is just a quick phone call away, if needed.

Here’s an Instagram picture of an Enterprise Rent-A-Car we used for a road trip from Louisiana to Alabama.

Let the #SouthernRoadTrip begin! #travel

Yes, we really love road trips, but I had no idea that where we’re from in the US had anything to do with our highway wanderlust. Enterprise provided this neat graphic showing what parts of the US road trip more often than others.

We’ve also taken trips to destinations by plane and then rented a vehicle from Enterprise Rent-A-Car to explore other parts of the US. When visiting family in Boston and then driving to the family summer home in Maine, it’s convenient for us to use Enterprise Rent-A-Car for the round trip holiday. And Enterprise is such a stellar car rental company, my husband has used Enterprise Rent-A-Car for years while he pilots planes into towns and cities around the US for overnight trips. Enterprise Rent-A-Car has consistently been part of my family’s life, for business and travel.

It’s National Princess Week: Cruise Ships, Ball Gowns, and a Modern Day Princess

It’s National Princess Week here in the US and since I was a little girl, thanks to Disney, I’ve had this fascination with what the word “princess” represents. To me it was always the story of a girl, who was just herself, and then fell in love with a handsome guy that swept her off…
