Do you ever miss the days when road trips meant singing along to mixtapes, playing “I Spy” for hours, and capturing memories on a disposable camera instead of a phone screen? Let’s bring that magic back! It’s time to put the digital world on pause and relive the ultimate 90s travel experience—no distractions, just pure nostalgia.
🚗 The Rules of the 90s Travel Club:
1️⃣ Put That Phone Away!
Seriously—stash it. Don’t let your kids bring their tablets or gaming devices either. The world is your entertainment.
2️⃣ Safety First, Like a True 90s Kid 🚦
Use a REAL flashlight (not your phone light).
Carry a whistle—yes, like the one your mom made you wear at the theme park.
Keep a tracker on your kids (we’re nostalgic, not reckless).
3️⃣ Airplane Mode = Freedom ✈️
Switch it on and leave it there. Only break the seal for emergencies or maps.
4️⃣ Capture the Moment—Without a Screen 📸
Get yourself a real camera, preferably one that records in 4K. Bonus points if it’s a camcorder.
5️⃣ Hide Your Apps Like Your Crush Notes in 5th Grade 💌
Hiding apps isn’t just for cheaters—hide them from yourself! Out of sight, out of mind, out of temptation.
When You Can Use Your Phone (With Rules!):
🔕 Step One: Turn on Do Not Disturb—no notifications allowed.
🗺️ Use it only for maps or emergency calls.
🎶 Relive the Magic
Load up a 90s playlist, pack some throwback snacks (Dunkaroos, anyone?), and let the world around you be your entertainment. Trust me—when you ditch the distractions, you’ll actually experience your trip instead of just capturing it for social media.
