S: James was very sweet and drove us to Death Valley as I still didn't feel well. We weren't really sure what to expect, but we stopped just before and filled up on supplies - mainly beer in true Keeler style. We stopped at the visitor centre and got a map and asked the local ranger for some tips for the best places to see. After that, we found a camp site and went to bed early after a few games of cards so hopefully I would feel better in the morning. J: In the...

J: We made it to Las Vegas! We had treated ourselves to a hotel there and got a great deal online at the Stratosphere, we arrived to check in and headed to our room.... But we had booked a strip view and we didn't have one. So, we went and complained, unfortunately there was some communication problem with the booking. Unfortunately, they had no rooms with a strip view so upgraded us to one of the higher rooms which was much more of an upgrade so we came off we...

Morning came and we got woke up by the cleaner to the toilets. Then headed off to Hoover Dam, although I f...

Once there we scoped out our options and as luck would have it; there was a cancellation and we booked up a wood cabin at Phantom Ranch at the bottom on the Canyon and planned a walk down! We bought all the bits we needed for the hike, then set up a campsite at the rim. It was honestly the most wonderful campsite I've ever had ...

S: So yet again we find ourselves in a petrol situation about to run out, honestly you would think we would of learnt by now but no James wanted to save a dollar on the price. Petrol is so cheap here you can get a gallon for $1.90 which works out to be roughly 30p a litre. We crossed through a border control as we drove next to the Mexican border, and the guy wanted our passports and the comment he gave us was, 'you've travelled a lot' and thankfully we didn't ...
