Hello! So I decided after a week in Mexico it would be better for me to return to the US, and then take a flight down to Mainland Mexico. The guys that brought me back to the US suggested that a cheap airline from Tijuana would be the best way to go. So, after a little bit of searching I booked a flight for $90 bucks. Also, I decided it would make some sense to take a Spanish lessons when I arrive. So I fly into Guadalajara, and have one week intensive lessons + I stay with a Mexican family. Apparently its a mother and her daughter!! So I had a week spare and decided to hire a car. On the first day I drove all day and got to Death Valley, then onto Zion then onto The Arches national park. Without a doubt the best place was Zion, and I would recommend it to anyone. I decided to hike the 'Angels Landing' trail, which a 4 mile trail a view point above the canyon. The first 1 1/2 hours were paved (roughly) and the last 1 hour up was across a rough mountain trail. In places the path was about 3 feet wide, with shear drops of over a 1000 feet on either side!!! Luckily there were chains bolted to the rocks, for all those who were scared! (I used them big time! ) I also hiked another trail here called 'Hidden Canyon', this one was a 2 hour walk. The heat is a real killer, and I must have drunk at least a gallon of water on this walk alone. (It was 45 DegC) I am now back in Vegas staying at yet another USA Hostel. They have a pool here, which is cool, cuz I need to work on my tan! It's the MTV music awards this Sunday in Vegas, so there are a lot of gigs onto this weekend. Tonight, the hostel have tickets to see Snoop Doggy Dog for $25! (Including transport and free Vodka!). Then tomorrow I have tickets to see Joss Stone at Mandalay Bay Beach! Bargin. Checkin out, yak with you all soon. PJ xxxxxxxxxx
