Wedding Trip - Day 6

Checked out of the Homewood Suites in Peabody at 0730 and got on the road.  Fortunately, we avoided a majority of the traffic on the way out of town. Stopped for gas at a Mobil Station (Route 128) in Newton (...).  Drove down I-95 all the way to New Jersey (crossed Hudson at George Washington Bridge). Kids saw some of New York skyline. Took Jersey Turnpike for some of the way - changed to I-295 until Delaware Bridge. Took DE-1 all the way down to US-13 - used Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel to get back to Hampton Roads. Kids liked the trip home - faster and more relaxed. We saw signs for the Chincoteague wild horses - we'll have to try that someday! We stopped at the visitor's center near the end of the crossing. Good visibility and we could see the coastline of our "new home" (strange to say that!) for a while before we actually arrived in Virginia Beach. Home around 2000.
