I know you SoCal'ers have a somewhat focused view of the Nation, but I still don't think you can call LA to Anaheim one end to the other. LA to New York City is one end to the other, and like crossing Australia I think a plane would in fact be best.

That's what I'm trying to say.

I miss Yosemite, so I made a Peppermint Patty using Hot milk, chocolate syrup, and peppermint essence. Not quite the same, but it took me back for long enough to get all sentimental.

...I'm a nostalgic guy.

Woo Hoo !! A couple of tips:

Pack lots of water.

Have a GPS. If the rental doesn't have one, feel free to use ours. It's got a map good for the entire country.

Practise eating wombat, possum and koala. I can send vegemite to help you adjust.

vegemite? - That's it. The trips off.

I did some initial budgeting, I was worried about gas prices given that we are planning to drive the equivalent of D.C. to Los Angeles to San Francisco to Las Vegas, but I ran the numbers and they were not that bad. Then I figured out the gas cost I was using was per liter not per gallon

Pfft, I don't even think you guys were even IN the U.S. a few months ago.


Ok, I have no memory left. But PROVE IT.



With photographic evidence.
