and this is the end....

We have done a bit of driving since our last blog, through southern Oregon, the Sierra Nevadas in California, the national parks of Utah and finally up to Jackson Hole Wyoming.
All in all we clocked up 10500ks in the US! an here a few photos of the last few weeks.

So thats it, our holiday is finally over and we are back in New Zealand. Well really our trip is over but perhaps our holiday is not quite, we still have a few dollars in the bank and are not rushing off to get back into working life!

For all those of you we caught up with while we were away, it was good seeing you and for many others we will be catching up now that we are back.

Thanks for tuning in

Richard and Anna
