VickieLynn, She is adorable. Waiting with you for the magic day. 
Homecoming in 2 weeks! How exciting. She looks like she's full of sweetness.
I'm sure the 2 weeks will seem so very long!

Hi Vickielynn! We found that it really helped to put a blanket over the carrying case/traveller when we brought ours home about two weeks ago. It was about a three hour drive, and we just put the blanket over top so they couldn't see, and still spoke to them so they somewhat knew they were okay. They slept most of the way. Hope that helps! I'm not sure what other people have done/recommend you do, but that seemed to work great for us.

One thing you should do VickieLynn. Prepare to have your heart melted. What a love.
What a cutie!
Are you asking for the trip specifically or for bringing a Savannah home in general? A 1-1/2 hour trip should not be bad. Don't forget to bring a carrier if your breeder isn't providing one. I would leave her in the carrier for the trip, there will be plenty of time for bonding once you get her home. Let her take the lead on interacting with you, if she is acting shy or frightened don't push yourself on her. If she bounces out of the carrier ready to interact and play then go for it!
