Grand Canyon
April 27th, 2009
So the Grand Canyon is amazing, just such an awesome spectacle that I suspect you really do need to see it to believe it. Tons of photos, none of which I have here but they’ll show up soon. We also enjoyed an overnight low of 27 degrees - farenheit. Yes kids, that is sub zero. Did I mention we’re on a camping trip? Let’s just say that my sleeping bag doesn’t quite cut it in these conditions. It’s amazing that sleeping in thermals and progressingly putting on more and more clothes during the night still didn’t keep me warm. I survived though, much to the disappointment of the coyotes howling through the night I’m sure. So we’ve been on the trip for a week now, halfway through our group travels and it’s going really well. What started off slowly is starting to speed past now. We drove up route 66 to get here yesterday after camping on the Colorado river near Lake Havasu. Great site, terrible companions keeping us up all night. We have a helicopter flight over the canyon today, quite looking forward to that! Off for a hike along the rim now so best be off, I think I’ve defrosted enough to face the outside world again. Ciao

Quick Update
April 24th, 2009
Oh hi there.
Turns out things are gonna be pretty quiet around here for a week. We’re off into the desert and shall pop out the other end in Vegas. I may have already spent a squillion dollars on international phone update fees so umm… we’ll talk to ya later!
Just quickly, in San Diego tonight, having a grouse time and would love to write more but my grill fired baked potato awaits. We did get out for dinner last night though, saw the zoo today which was really good, now about to sleep before our long drive towards the Grand Canyon tomorrow.
Have a nice day!

On the road
April 21st, 2009
That was me riding the cable car to meet Cass in San Francisco. Said goodbye to Lana, her wonderful apartment, advice & cooking (thanks AirBnB.com) rented a car & drove to Yosemite & back, which was amazing. Remarkable scenery which my phone camera doesn’t do justice. We’ve started our group trip now, yesterday we drove from SF to Santa Cruz, where we checked out the beach & boardwalk before pitching tents & spending our first night camping. Unseasonally hot here right now & we got a taste of Californian traffic as everyone wanted to hit the beach at once. Stopped at Monterey this morning & now driving down the coast through Big Sur for some scenic views & onto Santa Barbara for more camping. Packing heaps into the days so far, no time to rest at all. At least until we hit San Diego where we’ve got two nights to settle in slightly. But before then is a night in Los Angeles. Crazy. Ciao for now.
