Wanted to mention that this is a carbon neutral journey. Please check out my carbon offsetting programs Terra Pass for car travel and Pembina for air travel. The way it works is you go to the website of an organization like the ones I'm using, type in the information about your car or the number of miles you are flying, etc., and they'll calculate your CO2 emissions. Then you make an appropriate contribution, and they use your donation to invest in clean, renewable energy sources. It's not quite guilt-free travel, but carbon offsetting certainly helps compensate for your CO2 travel emissions.
