We left the Grand Canyon yesterday as a snow storm began to set in, our two friendly stags came out as we were leaving. We drove through snow and rain until the weather cleared when we reached California. It was a big day of desert driving on lonely roads and as we were nearing Joshua Tree a coyote ran infront of the car! Today we have explored the park, which is like a land out of a Dr Seuss book with bi boulders thrown everywhere and many Joshua Trees, extreme...

We drive down from Bryce Canyon on Thursday passing through lots of desert and rock formations until we got to the Grand Canyon in the afternoonfor our first views of the massive hole! We were pretty tired after the big drive so made our way to the campground for the night. Still lots of snow around, but we had a pair of stags to keep us company, that we got right up close to. The next day we got up early to go on a hike into the canyon. The hike was billed as...

We were now in the thick of snow in the fields, but the roads were nice and clear. The snow restricted us from doing much walking here, but we drove to many look outs of the canyon, that is full of strange rock formations called Hoodoos, that are fascinating. Camped down now amongst our camper in the snow, onwards to ...

On our drive through from Las Vegas we went over the Hoover Dam, which was busy as it was President's Day, but impressive nonetheless. They have recently built a new bridge going parallel to it that is massive. We then headed to Utah, seeming to pass through Arizona and Nevada state lines several times on the way. Finally arrived to the red rock canyon that is Zion National Park. The road through it is red as they must use the local stone. When we were setting up...

Vegas baby! Had a great few days in this crazy place! We arrived from Death Valley on Saturday and settled in to the camping park we were staying at run by a casino, which there are heaps of! We had a really good Mexican dinner before heading off to the Strip where we checked out Caesar's Palace and the Bellagio watershow, before we got a bit weary from all the driving and headed back. The big casino's are ridiculous though, so much gambling and tacky extravagan...
