Epilogue Our flight home was uneventful and thankfully not delayed so we landed bang on time in a cool but bright London. Chris's Dad picked us up from Heathrow and drove us back home where we set about emptying our bags and sorting stuff out. Mum had to start the laundry which I don't think she really wanted to do and I had to empty my bags and sort out all my gear. We had to try and stay awake until the evening and try and get our bodies back into UK time even...

Day 29 Today is the last day of our holiday and we only have the morning left before we have to make our way to the airport for our journey home. We are all feeling a bit sad that we have to leave but Mum says we don't have any more money to stay so I guess that's that. We spend the morning enjoying the sunshine along Fisherman's Wharf before making our way to the airport. Our flight home is 9 hours and although we leave at 5 in the evening we will not land at ...

Day 28 It's our last full day in San Francisco today so we decide to pack as much in as possible.

We went out to the park which is entirely manmade, even the soil had to be brought in, we saw the Coit Tower, the To...

Day 27 Today we had planned on a short ride into San Fran (about 60 miles) back to the hire company where we would drop our RV off and make our way down to the Argonaut Hotel in Fisherman's Wharf where we were to stay for the next two nights. How wrong could we have been, the journey started by taking us down Highway 1 (really craggy and winding road right on the cliff edges) in thick early morning mist, normally Mum would be telling Chris that the lights were r...

Day 26 The journey from Lake Tahoe to San Francisco is more than we would like to do in one day so we chose to book a night at an RV park a bit closer to town to spend our last night. We found a park in Olema which is about an hour north of San Fran out towards Point Reyes in wine country. The drive from Tahoe to Vallejo is mostly boring Highway 80 but then turns out across the Napa Valley which is really scenic. We make good progress, arriving by lunchtime, whi...
