hey all,
me and my friends from high school are all at different colleges and we thought a road trip would be a great way to get together again during our spring break. I'm pretty sure spring break is about a week or a little more or a little less so we dont have thaaat much time but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for great roadtrip destinations from nyc/new jersey?
I kind of want to check out new orleans, but i'm not sure if that is feasible. Should we go north or south? west? ahh who knows but im open to all options.

Also some tips about gas, finding a motel, food (especially kosher food) and just overall strategies for a cheap and successful trip would be very much appreciated!!!

Thanks so much
