Day 199, 200 - (We're going to) Miami, Florida & US sum up - Wednesday 2nd, Thursday 3rd May 2012 So we stopped off in Philadelphia for a three hour wait and re-fuel. By now it was 7am and it had been my 33rd birthday for a full seven hours, Sophie however said that it wasn't my real birthday until we grabbed a coffee at the airport in Philly and sat down with something to eat - then it would be my birthday and I could open some presents (girls hey!). We...

Day 197, 198 - Return to LA & surrounds, California - Monday 30th April, Tuesday 1st May 2012 We woke and headed straight for the American style diner round the corner from the motel we'd stayed at in Williams. Two coffees, some oatmeal with banana, an egg, bacon and cheese muffin with hash brown later we were ready to hit the road.

Come 3pm we arrived and couldn't have asked for better weather - clear blue skies and bright sunshine. We walked up towards Mather point and was greeted by a...

Day 195 - The Hoover Dam, Nevada - Saturday 28th April 2012 We slept in till the alarm woke us up at 10am and its fair to say that we felt like death! Three days of drinking, late nights and truck loads of greasy food has not agreed with our bodies. We dragged ourselves out of bed, packed, checked out and headed straight to some more food at the Harrah's lunch buffet! It's impossible to be healthy in America - I would be fifty stone if I lived in the states. ...

Day 192, 193, 194 - Las Vegas baby! Nevada - Wednesday 25th, Thursday 26th, Friday 27th April 2012 VEGAS BABY!! This statement featured greatly in our three days in the sin city - drunkenly shouted in the early (and sometimes late) hours of the morning, whenever we won a bet (which wasn't often) and just generally when the moment took us! Now, before we start this particular blog we've got to be honest and admit that large chunks of Vegas (baby) were a bit of ...
