Road Trip

So in April, the wife and I are going to do a road trip. She's been on plenty. Personally, the farthest I've driven was the... couple hundred miles from NJ to MA.

This time, we're doing something a bit more extensive. We're flying to South Carolina and spending a couple of days with some family there then we're driving up. We're stopping by to see other family as well along the way as well. We're going from SC to NC to VA to WV to PA and then up the east coast until we're back home along that route.

I figure some of you guys either live there or have been there before so any attraction worth visiting?

I'm regularly V/LA on the weekends. If this is the weekend and I've not said otherwise, please assume I'm on V/LA.

SC's stereotypical answer is Myrtle Beach, which is basically a tourist trap that made it big. True story: people from Ohio go to MB on vacation because it's the closest real beach. Somehow.

If you continue north on HWY 17 you'll be in good shape to hit the Outer Banks, home of lighthouses and car ferries and sand dunes and wild ponies. You can get into coastal VA that way; I don't know my VA well but Norfolk is a place my military parents keep talking about. I'd also argue that the mountains of NC are worth visiting, and if you're going through WV you're definitely passing that way one way or another.

WV is probably going to be a place where the tourist attractions are well-advertised online because that's pretty much what's stopping the whole state from being a drive-through state.
