I thought I'd share my road trip from Seattle to Vegas (and a few other stops along the way). All I can say is that this was an epic journey. Almost 4000 miles with only 1 issue, my ipod interface. But that is another thread. Here are the pics:


Day 1. Start of journey, all clean and raring to go.


Day 2. Giant Redwoods by Crescent City, CA (awesome drive through these).



These things are huge!





Day 2. Hwy 101 and Hwy 1 to just north of San Francisco



Day 3. Hwy 101 and Hwy 1 through Carmel to Moro Bay





Day 4. Hwy 1, 101, and 58 Moro bay to Las Vegas, via Bakersfield.



Arrive in Vegas. View from room (right on the strip).



The wife flew down to meet me and we had an all night session at Planet Hollywood, leaving at 6am.



We managed to go to two of Gordon Ramsey's three restaurants






Inside Caesars Palace




My wife's favorite casino, the Venetian.



Red Rock Canyon and various drives













Left Vegas and headed to Yosemite (can't remember what day!)







Moved on to Crater Lake









Journey home and all packed.



Finally home

WOW...........just wow! Those pics look amazing.

Liking the m-sport colours on the grill actually quite a tasteful mod, never seen that before.

Did you drive the car how it was meant to be driven at any time? Or was it 55mph all the way..?

Lots of spirited driving, especially through the mountains and through the desert. But you really have to be careful over here as cops are everywhere.

You're right there, when we drove Monterey across to Yosemite "why they even had a bear in the air!"
