Would you go somewhere just for a day out if it was a 2 hour drive away

[Shoutingonthesekidsshows]

With a five year old?
Two hours driving time each way, lunch/dinner there, a boat trip and hour long open top bus trip. Is it easily doable or too much stress?
Expensive to book a hotel and pay for dogs to go in a kennel at the moment

We'd have done it for a special trip during half term but probably as a long day and assume they'd fall asleep on the way home.

I think if you view it almost as a mini holiday rather than a mere day out it works better,
