advise where we should start.? We want to hire a car and travel the east coast of the US, however where would be the best place to start? Would it be better to travel up or travel down? We want to see Boston, Philadelphia, New York, Washington and may be down to Virginia. We have driven in the US before, however we are not really confident when we enter a big city by car as the signposting is very confusing to strangers. This probably sounds a bit strange to the natives, however if you don't know what street to exit from the highway it is difficult. Where are the best places to get maps? We will be travelling from Sydney Australia.
