Future Road Trip: Driverless Becomes Car/Hotel Suite Combo


Imagine a future auto journey. You go from New York to Washington, or Los Angeles to San Francisco, in a private hotel suite on wheels. Instead of a tedious drive with your eyes always on heavy traffic, you’ll relax on a comfy bed, munch a sandwich and watch TV soap operas or the latest sports event.

The more luxurious versions of the driverless cars will have twin or double beds, kitchen, dining area with views, refrigerator, bath with shower and other upscale features. It may also have a transparent roof, inviting the romantic couple to enjoy the passing daytime scenery and nightly skies.

A drive can be an especially happy event for romantic couples. They’ll cuddle and smooch in their own private highway rolling love nest. For more info, go to www.cnn.com/travel/article/autonomous-travel-suites.

Your travel4seniors.com editor photo'd this sign on a recent Welsh venture. If you think the town name above the railroad station shop has a lot of letters, consider nearby Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, also in Wales. The Guinness Book of World Records lists that one as the longest place name in the world, and we can’t argue. Not that they’re the only strange name places in Wales. Consider Bully Hole Bottom, Penisarwaen, Tarts Hill, Three Cocks and Lord Hereford’s Knob.
