Greetings campers,

So upon departing the bright lights of Vegas and heading for Yosemite (eventually reaching Yermo) not a great deal of interest happened...

Besides having an ever so slight 'incident' involving a rather shifty looking Mexican lorry driver and his child.

Lets just say, 2 large vehicles dont quite fit side by side into two narrow lanes (as his wing mirrors found out to their cost). Anyway, said shifty Mexican decided to give chase after the above incident and forcebly edge us off the road (on a main freeway!!).

I wont lie, bum cheeks were clentched pretty tight and prayers were said as i walked over to his cab (hoping he wasnt a big guy). Turned out that he really wasnt and barely spoke a word of english so following me pulling his wing mirror back into place we embraced warmly and bid each other farewell (seriously, what a strange man).

Sticky plasters on the side of the steed and we were off thankfull that shifty mexican was in fact not a murderer...

Yermo was reached and a toast was made (over bud lights - with Lime, Aimees new favourite drink) to the fact that we did in fact take out the additional insurance (good advice Mick!).

A & M
