drumart Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Managed to finally get back online since i returned from the trip. Got to do some really cool things, an see some great places. Thanks to BOATS N HOES for some good info on areas to stay an things to do whilst in SD. Photos are a mix of phone snaps, an SLR. an might be a bit jumbled. First stop LAX. Picked up the car we rented for the whole 3 weeks. Was a great vehicle Headed straight to San Diego, to find the apartment in La Jolla 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drumart Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 then headed out of san diego towards monument valley. a few stops on the way like wickenburg. i didnt realise how much of nothing there would be between towns/cities. completely different to the UK. just an over night stop here. then hit the road to carry on the drives.

drumart Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 i cant remember which way round we did all this, but heres some photos from an over night stay in vegas. and some death valley stuff. stayed in the golden nugget which was amazing. a flume through a shark tank?! a bit of a fail with the winnings. i'd heard a little bit about these before taking the trip out, and had to try them. tasted like shit but they fucked you up. death valley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumart Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 i defiantly think the highlight of the trip was the rapids through the canyon. im shit at swimming so was a bit nervous about the whole thing. there were a few stops on the way down, where you could scramble about through rocks an stuff. then a chopper back up when you reached the bottom. helicopter feels like the most unstable thing to be in whilst traveling.

drumart Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 on the way to drop my girl back at college, stayed in a place called joshua tree. Was an amazing experience, and wish i had more time an money to cover more ground. Want to live in SD for some part of my life too for sure. finish up with the misc. flicks and food. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qsysue Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Excellent thread. Thanks for taking the time. The SW of the US is an amazing place, isn't it. Southern Utah is on my list of places to go, still haven't made it there yet. Death Valley is HUGE and I want to spend a week there sometime.

LUGR Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Well, since GBM's thread was moved here and after reading the conversation they had I figured photo/travel threads should be placed here to boost ill content.
