The sentence that requires semicolons instead of commas is:
**This summer, we are going on a road trip to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Baltimore, Maryland, and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.**
In this sentence, the semicolons would help to separate the city names from their respective states to avoid confusion. It should be rewritten as:
**This summer, we are going on a road trip to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Baltimore, Maryland; and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.**
**This summer, we are going on a road trip to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Baltimore, Maryland, and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.**
