The Cost Analysis of our 14-day road trip from Chapel Hill to Miami

We made a 14-day road trip from Chapel Hill to Miami in winter break in December. We visited seven different beautiful towns such as Charleston, Savannah, Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa, Miami, and Key West. 

I recorded our daily expenditures and analysed them at the end of the trip. The total cost of the trip was approximately $1,900. Meanwhile, the average daily cost was $136. We spent $1,000 for hotels and it was 53 percent of total costs. The second highest cost was entertainment cost which included ticket fee of Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex and entrance fee of parks, beaches, and other facilities and shopping.

Southeast USA Road Trip - Day 13: Miami and Jacksonville, FL

Our last day in Miami, we visited the North Beach that was less crowded than the South Beach. While we were going to the North Beach, we saw the luxury residents and neighborhoods of the island which was amused us. Luckily, it was sunny and the ocean was not wavy. Therefore, we could swim for hours. Additionally, Elif found a friend and played with her in sands and water. After swimming on North Beach, we began to our trip to turn back home. Because it was a long trip from Miami to Chapel Hill, we decided stay one night in Jacksonville. Thanks to the rewards of Hotels.com (1 night reward for 10 nights booking) we booked our hotel in Jacksonville in an affordable price.   1. Activities North Beach (Miami North Beach) 2.
