Auto Train???

Did this last year (in June) with our two kids (6 and 10). Will NEVER do it again. It was a fun adventure, clean, fairly comfortable, pretty good food....for about 10 of the 20+hours it took us to get there. Coming home was a bit better as we figured out to NOT pick a seat close to the snack car. The further away the better. Much less crowded with other kids. There were empty seats so we could spread out and the car door (with light)wasn%26#39;t constantly being opened for people to go to snack car and restroom. We were actually able to sleep a little. That said, my in-laws go to Florida for three months every year. They need to have a car there so they take the train in January. They say it is not crowded at all. They also get a private car and seem to really enjoy watching movies and sipping the complimentary wine. If you go with kids, get to the station very early so you can request the first dinner time. We ate last going down and first coming back. First was much better for the kids. Waiting three hours while smelling dinner was very hard for them.

I prefer to fly, but if budget didn%26#39;t permit, I would rather drive!!
