Answer 1 :
walk
Answer 2 :
You may have a bulletin board in your school where you can post your schedule. Offer to share expenses - like gas and food - and see if someone else is going your way at the same time you need to go.
Answer 3 :
You can probably get a bus ticket for around $120, a train ticket for around $160, or an airline ticket for about $350. If that is too much, you could try Craigslist or something and see if you can hitch a ride with someone that is heading that way.
Answer 4 :
Greyhound, and although that's very cheap there may well be even cheaper local operators. Good luck!
Answer 5 :
I usually go by plane to somewhere, because of how many times i go i get flight miles, which i can use to by a ticket for free but spend my miles, but from the distance your going its probably $300 or $400.

About what are fun and unique things to do in Phoenix and Tucson

What are fun and unique things to do in Phoenix and Tucson?
My family and I are traveling [by car] towards Phoenix with a possible stop in Tucson. We been to both places once with positive results, but the second time around, we would like a more local perspective. I'm looking for some local favorites with a few tourist attractions sprinkled in as well. Basically: -restaurants (family friendly) -shops -sights that only locals would know about. I'm seeking help from mostly residents of these cities, but anyone's advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. :D

Answer 1 :
Restaurants: REAL Mexican food: Carolinas in down town. http://www.carolinasmex.com/ Indian Fry Bread: Fry Bread House http://www.azcentral.com/ent/dining/RestaurantDetails.php?OccurrenceID=88964 Pizza & Wings: Uncle Sams (3 locations) http://unclesamsaz.com/ Shops: Go do downtown at coppersquare: Old town Scottsdale is overrated and too crowded. http://www.coppersquare.com/directory/ If you're into small Historical shops, cafes and Farmer's Markets, Glendale is a nice place to visit. It's a small area, but neat. http://www.historic-glendale.net/ Sights: I've always found the "Boulders" in North Scottsdale to be interesting. http://www.theboulders.com/
Answer 2 :
These are some place for Tucson. 1. The Sonoran Desert Museum is something fun for the whole family. They have lots of great desert animals. Get there as early as possible before it gets hot and all the animals take a nap. If you go on a weekend, they will have docents to give you more info and maybe have some animal you can touch (lizards, tarantulas, snakes,...) 2. The Titan Missile Museum is another great family site. They take you into what was once an actual Titan Missile facility. Very top secret when it was operational. Very educational. 3. The best restaurant in town is Cafe Poca Cosa. It's located in downtown Tucson on Pennington Street. Big lime green parking garage looking building. Anyway, it has great food. I hesitate to call it Mexican food, because it is not what you think. No burritos, tacos, or enchiladas here. Just really good fresh food. Go for lunch to save some money. Try the "Chefs Special" to sample more if this is your first time. You get 3 smaller portions of the entree, but you don't get to choose which 3.
Answer 3 :
I live in downtown Phoenix and love it. Restaurants you might want to try are Cibo which is a very nice pizza place. For a more family setting try The Old Spaghetti Factory. This is one of my favorite places. It has a trolley in the middle of the restaurant and things all over the walls. The tables and chairs are pretty different too. If there is a game going on while you are here you definately want to check that out. There are always tons of people outside riding the light rail, eating on patios, and just having fun at the games. If you go outside of downtown a bid there is Castles and Coasters which you children should love. I've listed the websites under source.
Answer 4 :
Well, some fun and unique things to do in Phoenix are 1. Take a tour of the university of Phoenix stadium where the Cardinals football team plays with the retractable roof and the playing field that slides in and out of the stadium. http://www.justbuytickets.com/Venues/Phoenix-Stadium-Tickets.php?gclid=CNLgwsrDrZkCFQ_yDAodgXbXHw 2. Take a hot air balloon ride http://www.hotairexpeditions.com/general.htm 3. go tubing down the Salt River http://www.saltrivertubing.com/ Fun western restaurants - steakhouse type http://www.reatapass.com/history.htm http://www.pppatio.com/home/default.asp fun and delicious pizza restaurant http://www.pizzeriabianco.com/ Have a wonderful time!
Answer 5 :
i recommend going to westgate many family friendly restaurants there and shops i also recomend arrowhead mall sights i say downtown phoenix is a great place to be in hope you enjoy it here ;)
Answer 6 :
In tucson there is a place you can hike called catalina state park and you can hike up to these waterfalls and pools its really nice there and what my boyfriend and I did when we went to tucson is just saw a place that looked decent and just stopped in and it was really good food, i can't remember the name of it now. As for Phx!, I'm a born and raised phoenician I would reccomend going to the wild life zoo with you're family, it's a spectacular zoo and they recently opened a large aquarium there. This is alot better then the phx zoo because you can get a lot closer and personal with the animals its great!, you get to see penguins in the desert! For restaurants, Fudruckers is a popular choice its got just classic american food burgers and all but it's aimed for the children and has a great environment. Living here my whole life and having been only to cali i'm not too sure on a lot of restaurants if they're actually chains or not. You can try Mama's kitchen in glendale its really good food but it looks like a hole in the wall. Also Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville is in Glendale and it has people walking around on stilts so its a fun environment too! Also along glendale ave, around 55th ave there is a great chocolate factory called cerrta candy co. you can go on a factory tour and have a lot of fun. As for shops it really depends what your looking for if its native culture I would reccomend parts of downtown Scottsdale they've got rows and rows of shops that have unique and great things to buy. As well as a great art district, you can watch peolpe making glass sculptures blowing them with they're mouths and its really interesting, there is a place called teh sugar bowl thats down there, right along scottsdale rd near both those area's of shops. You can email me if you have any questions or want to know anything else! Hope you have fun! =]]

Answer 1 :
As long as there have been no complications, i dont see why not.. I mean as long as you wont be away from home for more than a couple days
Answer 2 :
Yes, just make sure you get out of the car and stretch out every hour or so, also drink lots of water.
Answer 3 :
I would assume it would be safe, but see your GP first to make sure he says its fine to travel considering your almost full term and you don't want to go into labor whilst traveling.
Answer 4 :
Some Dr's prefer you don't but if it's ok with them there shouldn't be any problem
Answer 5 :
Oh yea you can travel. You might just want to stop half way so you can stand up and stretch. Get your self repositioned and head on your way
Answer 6 :
We drove from Ny to Virginia when I was in my 8th month and I was ok I just have to warn you- make sure you stop along the way to walk and move your legs. Your circulation will be very poor from being in the car that long and your legs are going to swell. Make sure you stop and I don't suggest driving yourself. Let someone else drive. Make sure you have room to put your feet up and don't plan too much on the first day as you should probably lay down and elevate your legs. The swelling can be miserable. We drove down and I slept for awhile then walked along the beach and it was wonderful. A last vacation for baby arrives and I am so glad to have done it. Go with you but bring your baby stuff just in case, insurance info and your birth plan in case of emergency. Gl and enjoy your trip.
