I usually pack in multiple back-to-back 7-8 hour driving days on road trip vacations, with an occasional 4-6 hour day, but I do admit that's not the norm. If you can make your trip longer, you might as well. That way you can see everything you want and really do it properly, as you won't be getting to do it again, unless you move to Porsche!

Yeah - I dont usually have a hard time adjusting sleep patterns, but, i am AWFUL on planes, so will need to be heavily medicated to sleep on the flight :-P
Truth be told, the Mrs. was disappointed by the lack of Italy driving (I told her about the terrible roads in cities and not wanting the car to get hurt) but ill look into what you suggested above.
I had also considered that many days might be short - but hard to factor with stops, wanting to have time to get out and walk the towns, etc... and i didn't want to be stuck having to modify on the fly if we got delayed or who knows what... I'd be happy doing 5-hour/6-hour days - dont know that she'd be up for that though, at least not back to back. I havent checked out your last ED Journal - we you packing in long days consecutively?
