(2014 – deciding on the summer hols…..)
Lets go to the States and rent a car…
OK
Well, we’ve driven in Florida, California, ‘done’ Route 66……
Out comes the map….
Mmmmm… what about flying to Denver
We always wanted to ‘do’ the Rockies…
♪♪Colorado Rockie Mountain High♫ ... we can sing John Denver songs the whole time…..
Oh look…. there’s Salt Lake City… that might be interesting…
So THATS where Yellowstone is… we have go there….
Ah… Mount Rushmore…. Its just on the other side of Wyoming…..one state across from Yellowstone….so can’t be that far….
NO WAY!…. Devil’s Tower… its actually REAL!!!! I thought it was just part of the set in Close Encounters of a Third Kind.
That’s South Dakota … there’s the Black Hills….
♫ Take me back to the Black Hills
The Black Hills of Dakota♪♪♪ ……
Look…. Badlands …. Oh remember ‘Badlands‘ …. the song in Thelma and Louise….. is that the same thing? Have to go there…..
And then Denver is just below us….
Well that makes a loop….. ok…a rather big loop…. 1900 km give or take a few hundred….Oh wait…. its the US… so that would be 1900 MILES….. not allowing for ANY local touring and deviations…..
No bother (says she who won’t be doing the driving!)…. I’ll just go ahead and book those flights…..
