13/1 Yes its Friday the 13th and we are getting on a plane for a 6 hour flight. Luck we are not superstitious. We flew with Hawaiian Airlines. Good service and a nice flight. We landed at Honolulu, and had to catch another plane to the Big Island. We are staying in a 3 bedroom house in Pahoa, whcih is about 20ks south of Hilo. The house is right on the edge of a rain forest. Really cool place. 14th to the 20th This Big Island certainly has some amazing sights. ...

1/1/12 Had a great flight with Frontier. Arrived in Las Vegas and collected our hire car. We had to wait a while as the selection in the class we booked was a Jeep Liberty. After having 1 for 5 weeks i did not want another. After about 10 minutes a new Kia Sportage was driven into the pick up bays. Well this suited us just fine. Very nice car. Checked into the Platinum and we were upgraded to the Princess suite, 1200 square feet of luxury. We spent the next few...

27/12 Another long drive to Rapid City. After arriving in Rapid city we made headed to Mount Rushmore. What an amazing sight!. Spent a few hours taking in the enormity of the carvings.

Not a pleasant drive at all. Winds gusting up to 110mph. The roads weer being closed to trucks, but unfor...

23/12 The drive from Great falls to Calgary was pretty boring. No scenery as such. Very strong winds made driving interesting to say the least. Arrived at Calgary, nothing special here. This city was like a ghost town. 24/12 Did some walking around the town, and the very limited shops. This is one very quiet city. 25/12 Headed out to Lake Louise, a 2.5 hour drive. The weather in Calgary was really nice, but that all changed when we hit the mountains. We opted...

19/12 Nothing much planned today. Did some local sight seeing, and drove to Teton Village. We have now traveled 6,500 kilometers, and only have roughly another 4,000 ks to go before we arrive back in Denver. The cost of driving has been relatively cheap in regards to fuel. Fuel is around 75 cents a litre, and is still coming down. 20/12 After a 2.5 hour drive we arrive in West Yellowstone. The day started off really foggy with very low visibility, slow going. Ou...
