Day 3 NC to SC

7:33 AM arrived at Fayetteville charging station. We wanted to go to a diner but with everyone so hungry, we just parked the car at the charing station and decided to try out Waffle House for the first time. We had to cross the street which was SCARY. The Waffle House was the smallest building and the smallest Waffle House building we have ever seen. When we walked in, EVERYONE turned and stared at us. Why? Because we are not sure if there are any Asians who cross through this neighborhood. The employees were African American and all the customers were African American. It felt like they had just saw our faces on America's Most Wanted. It reminded the wife of the time she brought her African American friends to an Asian restaurant in an Asian neighborhood. We laughed about it, made good conversations and some new friends before we finished up our low quality breakfast. 
Rating of super charging station: 2/5
Not a lot of useful shops around for us. Was not very clean. 

We brushed our teeth by the car and then off we went to Santee, SC charging station - ETA 10:22 AM

We are driving to Santee, SC and we are loving the green plants we see. And the roads are so flat! Check out the attached picture.

Next exciting thing coming up? The husband won't stop talking about eating a seafood spread. He has spent hours on his phone during the car ride finding the exact place he wants to eat the seafood spread. It looks like Savannah, GA will offer us what we need. We are going to get our hands dirty.

And you know you are getting closer to Florida because you see palm trees. The little one gave the palm tree a hug :-)

Day 3 April 21, 2017 Autopilot and ALMOST THERE!

4/21/2017  The husband drove through a couple of Virginia super charging stations. Not much details since the wife was sleeping.  People have sent us questions on whether we recommend driving through the night and what is the autopilot like. Below are some of our quick thoughts on the questions.  Would you recommend driving through the night? Yes, especially when you have a little one and depends on how tired you are. She was comfortable in her car seat and slept through the entire night, so we covered a lot of distance with less stress on keeping her happy and entertained. We did not encounter traffic, so again we covered a lot of miles without wasted time. There were not a lot of cars on the road, so using autopilot was amazing! Not that autopilot does not do well with a lot of cars but it just makes it even more relaxing. We were not in a rush to get to a destination, so we kept it open on whether we need to stop or not. Our original plan was to stop at t...

Day 3 SC to GA to FL

10:23AM arrived at Santee, SC charing station (attached picture shows information the car gives us when we have it plugged in including the current miles (98mi), how much mi/hr charge, kW and charge current we are getting, and the recommended minutes to charge (25 minutes) in order to continue onto the next charging station or the trip) 10:42AM  charged with 171 miles. We are leaving Santee, SC charging station.  Rating: 2/5 There are no shops around for us. There are apartments in the area with several hotels. It felt a little unsafe and it was somewhat confirmed by a scene of a woman by Holiday Inn acting upset. Turned out her car windows were seriously damaged. So... we quickly left for Savannah, GA. We will have 20% charge left when we arrive at 12:27PM.  12:15PM Priority - FOOD! We got distracted by southern BBQ so we ended up at Shane's Rib Shack first. Being foodadicts as we are, we ordered too much and were too full for seafood spread afterwards. The...
