Today my wife and I have finally decided to start to make plans to come to the USA.
It will depend a little on my wife getting time off but she does not anticipate any problem.
This is what we are contemplating.
Self planned no prebooked tours.
Eight weeks in the USA , Sept/Oct, Fly into LA spend a few days there. Hire a medium SUV and drive across the centre of the US and finish in Washington DC and fly home.
On our way across the US I want to meet as many folks from FF as possible for a beer or coffee regardless of our political or religious differences.
Our thoughts are to camp some of the time and motel some of the time. So one of the first things we will need to do is buy camping gear before leaving LA.
Our first destination will be Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon then head towards Illinois, have not yet decided the route. Then spend a fair amount of time around the North Eastern states ( interested in the history) and visit Niagara Falls.
I need thoughts, comments and suggestions to aid the planning of this trip. Over the next few months I will have plenty of questions.
