The adventures of Sarah & Brian
Finally managed to leave San Francisco, hired a car and drove to Yosemite National Park with Anna, an Aussie girl who we met in LA. Stayed in a rustic hostel in the middle of the woods, there as even a real fire and a cafe where Brian bought pints of tea and hot chocolate.
Spent 2 days looking round the park, if anyone has ever seen pictures they'll know it's totally awesome (dude!). Massive granite rock mountains and waterfalls, it was gorgeous but very cold with snow on the ground but luckily every day was bright sunshine to take the edge off.
Next we stopped at Sequoia N.P, home of the giant redwoods, bloody great big trees, to anyone who doesn`t know ( the ones from the speeder bike scene in Return of the Jedi) believe me they are big, especially General Sherman, he`s the biggest and oldest living thing on earth!
After that we drove to San Diego which seemed like a nice city but we didn't do much as we've decided that cities are rubbish unless you've got loads of money - they're basically places to shop, eat and drink and we can't afford to do any of those things!
The hostel we stayed in, Banana Bungalow was truly wierd and pretty skanky but right on the beach. Wandered around the gaslamp district and did some naughty shopping, then just chilled on the beach before getting out of there to see some more wilderness.
Heading to Vegas to meet Vickie and Christian we stopped in Joshua Tree national park which was great, really surreal trees and big fluffy cacti.
Next stop, Vegas Baby..
