Saw some cool things like the city and Stone Mountain which is the south's version of Mount Rushmore. I can't decide if having a monument to Lee Davis and Jackson is cool or kind of strange. I won't go any further. St http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/New-Jersey/Lake-Hopatcong/blog-404090.html Hello allSo we left New Mexico for San Antonio and WOW the ride was unbearable. Okay the landscape like I've said a hundred times is unreal but after a while you kind of get it and just want to be in a different state. It took us around 12 hours to get from Albuquerque NM to San Antonio Texas. The place we stayed in San Antonio was great it was a Crown Plaza and we got it for so cheap it al http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/Alabama/Montgomery/blog-402492.html Fell asleep last night before Sister Act even ended. I should be punished. Left this morning for the Four Corners which is where Utah Arizona Colorado and New Mexico all meet up. I really liked it a lot. It was a lot of fun telling people that I was in 4 different states at once. Stopped in Cortez Colorado for gas and lunch lots of people in cowboy hats. Still more hitch hikers which I find http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/New-Mexico/Albuquerque/blog-401588.html HolaSlept well in the tent in San Diego which was a shocker. Left extremely early to try to beat the extreme heat driving from San Diego to Vegas but got caught in car accident traffic so it didn't exactly work out to our favor. The drive from the campground to Vegas was absolutely brutal. It was so incredibly hot but you can't crank the AC because that could possibly lead to the car over heat http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/Arizona/Flagstaff/blog-401345.html I think the last time I left off we had not arrived in San Francisco yet so I'm going to say we were in Arcata CA. The next day we drove through more of the Redwoods in California specifically the Avenue of the Giants and saw more of the Pacific Coast Highway. I loved it even though it's the most ridiculous road I've ever been on. It has insane curves and the speed limit is super slow for th http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/California/San-Diego/blog-400666.html Sorry I suck at updating this. Last time I updated I think we were in Montana. I forgot to mention that something I found extremely interesting in South Dakota was that at every point there was a fatal car accident on the highway there was a sign that said something along the lines of Think Don't Die. It was so bizarre. Saw Yellowstone again got to see Old Faithful It was exciting. Everyone s http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/California/Arcata/blog-399819.html Oh wow.Sorry to those who were looking for updates this is the first time I've had wireless on this trip. Actually we had it in Iowa but I was too tired to get anything accomplished. I'm going to give a short run down of my past weekMonday Got up at 5am packed the car picked up Henri and left on our adventure. Our first stop was Chicago and we stayed with Mom's friend Wendy. I'll give a b http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/Montana/Gardiner/blog-399031.html Hello everybodyFor those of you that did not know I'm embarking on a journey across the United States.
