Go west. Western USA that is.

In a few weeks time we're leaving Australia to explore the USA for the first time. Well, maybe not all of it - it's a bit big and we only have five weeks.

Here's the plan. Fly in to LA, hire a car and drive around a few states and then go back to LA and home. No, we're not going to Hollywood or Disneyland - we're going to Yosemite, Yellowstone, the canyons, arches and mesas in the south-west, the Rockies, the Sierra Nevada. We'll take the back roads rather than the freeways.

Geography, geology, giant sequoias and gee whiz! We expect to be impressed.
