I've done this 'oval' before, back the Twilight of my youth!

Granted, I didnt do it in 2 weeks, but this is the advice I'll give you, make periodic stops with your buds to see some of the cool stuff along the way, because being stuck in a car that long will eventually net you all a terminal case of cabin fever until at some point someone will snap and eat Jerry in the back seat.

You'll tear one another limb from limb just for being in the same car. At some point, you may grow to hate that car, because I'll tell you something about this great nation of ours:

Its big. And I mean, its really, really, BIG.

It takes a long, long, time to drive across it, and in my experience, the worst stretch is Kenora to Thunder Bay. Take the Ferry to Owen Sound, the Ferry trip alone is worth it.

Honestly, it was a lot of fun, I did it in about 7 weeks because we stayed places and saw stuff and it was pretty cool the whole way through, the car can be uncomfortable at times, are you all in one car or two? How many of you are going?
