You’re twelve years old on Thanksgiving at six thirty in the morning. You’ll be leaving for Grandma’s in about a half hour, and she’s lives a three hour drive away, going in one direction. You have nothing to prepare yourself on this journey, other than a tablet running Android Eleven. Beware, the speaker is broken and there is no headphone jack. Google Play complains that the device isn’t certified or whatever, but that isn’t going to stop you from downloading apps from third party websites using the family computer. Plus, you have one great advantage: F-droid is installed and ready to rock.

You must hurry, because you wont have an internet connection once you hit the road. Quick, what apps do you install? You have 128GiB’s at your disposal.

      Lol, I’ve not seen that pic in forever.

      But for real, even kids need sleep (actually more than adults due to still developing). Road trips for me when I was young was either: Cassette Walkman, listen to parents radio or look out the window. Sometimes having nothing got boring (especially driving through Texas), but I think it helped my imagination and self reflection time.
