Well, we're outta here! As of tonight, Amanda and myself will be leaving for the USA. We get back 2 days after MV09.

There will be many photos, we're driving everywhere! Our trip
includes:

- Landing in LA, spending xmas there, then doing Universal Studios and Disneyland.
- Driving up Highway 1 to San Francisco.
- New Years in San Francisco, doing Alcatraz, etc etc.
- Driving inland, stopping at Yosemite National Park for 2 days, driving through Death Valley, etc etc.
- Las Vegas.
- Drive to Hoover Dam, then onto Grand Canyon South Rim for a couple of days.
- Drive to San Diego, doing all the usual stuff there (Zoo, Wildlife Park, etc).
- Fly to New York for a week.

For now, merry xmas (happy holidays if you're that way inclined) and a happy new year to everyone!

mate that is an awesome trip you got planned. Better buy your self some warm clothes the minute you arrive in the USA because the whole country is getting hammered by one of worst winter storms on record, snow is Vegas is an absolute spin out. Have fun and go safe.

Yeah Dave, we have merino wool thermals, jumpers, jackets, etc....well prepared

I just hope the roads aren't closed! We're mainly sticking to main highways anyway, so it should be sweet

Have a great trip Joe.

I did a similar trip a few years back - sure you'll have a ball. Just be aware of your surroundings as said, can get a bit dangerous over there and often only a street away from the "good" part of a town.
