The story so far...
LA
Monday 9th March Hi guys, So after our last blog we checked out the address for our RV depot to try and figure out how to get there (hoping we wouldnt have to be subjected to the horrible LA buses again!!). We were quite shocked to discover that the depot was near the airport which was miles out of our way! The district was right next to Compton which is well known for gangs etc so we were a little dubious about getting buses round there etc and also we had to pick up our RV by 9am so there was no way we were getting up at 6am to start another bus journey like the one that got us to the hostel! We booked a taxi for the next morning. So bright and early the next morning the taxi arrived 30mins early so it was a bit of a rush checking we had packed everything....roughly 45mins later we arrived at the RV depot $65 lighter!!! The RV was pulled out for us and we were shown how to use it etc before we set off towards the nearest Wal-Mart to stock it up! After a couple of hours in there (it is absolutely massive!) deciding what we wanted to eat for the next few days (they have like 10 different choice of each item and the sizes are massive!) we set off towards Victorville. We ended up staying at an RV site in Adelanto and settled in for our first night of "camping". Needless to say we had our worst nights sleep since arriving here mainly due to being absolutely freezing! We hadn't realised how cold it would be and had refused the bedding package the RV company offered us thinking they were trying to get more money out of us..all we had to sleep in were our cotton sleeping bags so the next day we headed straight for Wal-Mart again to purchase a duvet. 1 night down...26 to go!
