Stay Jolly by planning on traffic jams

To enjoy the Christmas Holidays you got to plan on dealing with the traffic. Normal driving times that you are use to are unpredictable during the Christmas Season. I have to allow so much time just in case the traffic is backed up that when I get lucky and miss the Holiday traffic I end up way too early to my destination. I try to keep in mind little places I can visit within a few blocks of where I am scheduled so "just in case" I will have something to do close by which makes being early not so frustrating since there was no traffic jams to be frustrated over. Being prepared to deal with the Holiday traffic will keep you Holly and Jolly so you can enjoy the Christmas Holiday.
