Glad / Sad to say that we actually went to an English-theme pub yesterday to celebrate St George’s Day!! Was about as English as Walkabout is Aussie, but what the heck! Put on our best English accents and went down a treat! Drank Belgiun beer, with an Aussie in a bar in America: how patriotic are we?!!
Oh well, all that fun in Malibu and the Santa Monica mountains seems to have used up our ‘good weather vouchers’!! Whilst we hear news of sunny days in old Blighty, we are among the many in LA looking at the skies and asking “What the …?” !! Clouds? Drizzle? Beach volleyball cancelled? !! Good job we kept our Visa receipt cos we want a refund!
Has meant that we were able to spend some QT indoors planning trips: Las Vegas on Monday for 2nights hotel & casino (!!); 3nights camping in the Grand Canyon; then Lake Havasu – home of London Bridge, look it up! – for a night in the Windsor Inn (!!) then back to LA in time for a trip to a brewery next Sat.
That’ll only leave us about 6 more days in LA (camping again) before heading up the coast in a Greyhound bus to San Jose to see Robin & Tamara. Its all GO, GO, GO!!
