Land Based USA

On the Sunday, before Sal Darago was hauled out, Kathy and I used public transport to travel to Sunnyvale where we borrowed Simon and Erin’s Pontiac Vibe. We used this to return to Sunnyvale on the Thursday night and based our future trips from there using their lovely AWD car. Here’s some of what we did.

We ate well

We tasted 57 wines

We borrowed some bikes

We relaxed

We were together

Kathy and I decided to borrow their car and..

We drove to Yosemite and saw the falls

We wandered up to Nevada Falls

I ate snow

Then found Dog Lake

And much to Kathy's delight we met a mule train

In the Gold Rush town of Columbia, we found a Wells Fargo Stagecoach

So Kathy persuaded them to let her ride SHOTGUN

And afterwards she had to have a sarsaparilla

Not content with that we tried a road trip next and...

We drove through Vegas and saw Trump Tower

We climbed Angels Landing in Zion Park

And reached the top

More driving and the Arches National Park. Wow!

Across to Canyonlands

The views were fantastic

And the formations fascinating

Followed by Monument Valley

And the Grand Canyon

One mile deep, vast, stunning and magnificent

Followed by the long drive back to Sunnyvale

Thanks Simon and Erin for putting up with us and loaning us the car to make this whole trip amazing.
The end.
