Three friends and I are leaving the suburbs of Washington, DC on March 1st. We don't have a finishing destination in mind. We have purchased a used conversion van and a used pop-up camper for the trip. We will be taking two vehicles. The first is the conversion van I mentioned above and the other is a '95 Jeep Wrangler which will hopefully be towing a pair of jet skis. We are all interested in extreme sports and are water rats. Our first destination is New Orleans for Mardi Gras. From there we are thinking about heading to Florida for spring break then heading to the south west before the heat gets unbearable. What I am looking for is any advice anybody has for embarking on this type of adventure. We are budgetting about $1000/mo per person but would prefer to not spend that much. We are looking for inexpensive lodging and inexpensive adventures. We have read that Wal*Mart is Camper/RV friendly. Does anybody have any experience sleeping in Wal*Mart parking lots? Thanks in advance for anything you guys can share. Also, any websites from people that have done similar things would be great. I'll be looking for suggestions on destinations to settle down after we are already on our way probably.
