The GRAND Canyon
The Grand Canyon was as stunning as we had anticipated, except much more elongated. I even did a degree in geography, and know it was formed by a river, but for some reason I expected it to be more round! I am sure it looked rounder on the TV.
Motel stop over in Flagstaff - the beer run!
We drove along several sections of Route 66. Well, mostly. We drove alongside it as the original Route 66 has been left to fester.
Red Rock Canyon
Sunset in the Arizona desert.
Resting our weary legs in the Joshua Tree National Park (By this time we were full in the swing of visiting national parks the American Way i.e. in the car)
We did walk for two minutes around the cacti garden.
Richard climbed a rock where the cattle hustlers used to hide their stolen cows.
Pioneer Town - a movie set which remains and has now become home to a few locals.
Palm Springs cable car ride.
It was very cold at the top, although there was not as much snow as some hopeful youngsters wished. They had taken up sledges!
Santa Monica Pier - LA, the set for many a film.
The Walt Disney Hall, LA
The Latin American market. It made us very excited for the next part of our trip.
Grand Union Station - another film set!
Hollywood Boulevard.
Our dinner provider two days in a row - fabulous steak, egg and chips!
