Default Traveling alone with 2. Suggestions?

I am planning on taking both girls to the beach at the end of May, a 3-4 hour drive. Last year, it was just Gracie. I stuck her in her carrier and took her with me into the restroom at the rest area. The sign says "no" but no one was the wiser. This year, I will have Holly so I don't think I can get away with this so easily. Have any of you traveled alone by car with two or more Yorkies in the summer? How do you handle potty stops, food, etc.? What do you do when you can't leave them in the car and they can't come with you (like to use the restroom)? Have any of you used a double pet carrier? http://www.pets-warehouse.com/Vpasp/...62&zmap=271176I was thinking of limiting my fluids the day of travel, and not getting on the road much before noon so I can take care of potty and food before I hit the road, and drive it in a straight shot. I'm so glad I got the stroller, it will be much easier to take them to crowded public places. I got a room with a kitchen, ground floor with a deck so it should be easy to take them outside to potty (even though they use pee pads). The hotel lets me leave them alone in the room as long as they are crated and quiet. Ha Ha. Quiet. Ha Ha. I figure that would be OK if I had to run out to the grocery store for a minute and it was hot outside so they could not go and stay in the car. I think I am overly paranoid about theft. I just won't leave my girls alone in the car unless they are in direct view, like when I stop in to get my mail. Any suggestions for traveling alone with multiple Yorkies would be appreciated!
