• Ancient trees and rolling seas

    We’ve seen a fair few National Parks over the last six weeks as we’ve made our way across this ever changing country, and every one has been incredible in their diversity. From the blinding, rolling dunes of White Sands, through the desert wonderland of Joshua Tree to the sweeping majesty of the Grand…

  • Soaking up the Californian Desert

    When I think of California, I tend to imagine glorious sand beaches and uber-cool surfing communities. But before you finally reach the great Pacific Ocean, you find yourself crossing a huge variety of different terrains in the golden state. In fact, as well as being home to over 170 mountain ranges and 33…

  • Sin City

    As much as I was enjoying our cross country RV trip, I’ve gotta be honest, I was looking forward to a few days in a hotel room in Vegas. There is actually one RV park located right on the strip, belonging to Circus Circus hotel, but the bizarre thing is that it’s actually…

  • I like big Buttes and I cannot lie…

    People often think of Arizona as being the red-hued arid desert we are all familiar with from the movies. It also bills itself as “The Grand Canyon State” as if that’s all it’s got going for it. Don’t get me wrong, the Grand Canyon is one of the seven natural wonders of the…

  • Picking up historic Route 66

    Our route towards Arizona from Alamogordo briefly took us north and back into the Wild West of Lincoln County where we had previously explored Billy the Kid’s stomping ground. There was another ghost town just off the highway by the name of White Oaks, so we swung by for a look. This was…

  • Aliens and outlaws

    It was finally time to head on out of Texas, and cross into the self titled “Land of Enchantment”, New Mexico. We were heading towards the renowned UFO capital of America, Roswell, to see what all the fuss was about. The route we took brought us through the town of Lovington. Now, there…

  • Crossing The Lone Star State…

    Texas is a big state. Really big. I had been warned, by several people in fact, that it would seem like Texas goes on forever when driving across it. I think on our coast to coast journey we will probably cover close to 4000 miles. And twenty percent of those miles would be…

  • Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler…

    Nawlins. NOLA. Crescent City. The Big Easy. Whatever you wanna call it, New Orleans has a reputation as one of the most laid back, yet vibrant places on the planet, and we were on our way to check out if it’s international fame was well-earned.  But first we had to get there. As…

  • The Forgotten Coast

    Our next stop as we wind our way out of Florida’s panhandle and along the Gulf coast is the sleepy little town of Port St. Joe. This part of the US coastline has recently been termed the Forgotten Coast. This is because tourists gave the town a wide berth for many years, while…

  • Get Your Motor Running, Head Out On the Highway…

    The time had come for us to pick up our rolling home for the next six weeks and hit the open American road. We said goodbye to Disney, and headed over to Cruise America to meet our new steed. So far this year I’ve driven a right hand drive Motorhome on the right…
