Day 14 LA

Well, after spending 15 hours doing 3 miles through LA today wasn't much different.

We started the day heading up to sunset boulevard and mulholland drive to take a few snaps before heading to Santa Monica.






Hey Sam, best photo in t'world, skillage or what?



Heidi did a fantastic holding Hollywood between her fingers like you see on those web sites.  Worded a treat!!!!!



We then spent the next 6 hours getting 20 miles downtown to Santa Monica.  Having a lovely Italian lunch, our only meal of today, a beer and sangria we headed to the pier to conclude our 2,500+ mile track across the US.



Oh yes we saw a muckle car on the way in.


We then headed to the pier and went on a seriously scary ride.


Heidi totally relaxed.





And of course those who have been know all about the success of Forest Gump's mate, Bubba.


Then of course the reason for the visit...





We then met Dan, a mate of Gerry, who you've heard of already, our hero!  Dan was a lovely guy, lots of banter and interest in history, so yes we sold him a Hadrian Wall holiday - or at least the website.




So we fly Friday morning at 11 arriving back in UK a 8.30 Saturday morning, in time for heidi to go on holiday again on Sunday.

Thanks for you comments, it's been great doing the blog and see you all soon.  See you soon kids, missing you all and looking forward to your cuddles.  And fighting.  And arguing.  And doing nowt.

It's amazing the things you get up to in Vegas!! Thought what goes on in Vegas better come out!!
Janet told me (in the words of Katy Perry) "get up and shake the glitter off your clothes now that's what you get for waking up in Vegas"

  10. Hi Heidi and Tris
    I'm home and at last have read the blog properly. I'm not peering at it on my phone trying to expand pictures while some dodgy wifi connection cuts out, before resorting to sending a text!
    It all looks fab, its the most amazing trip. Its hard to pick out favourites , Jesse James caves looked good and I want to stand on the corner in wilmslow arizona. I also want to drive through all that amazing scenery and raft on the colarado river. I can't wait to hear about it all.
    Of course the highlight is the wedding photo - We're so happy for you both - Katy Perry would be proud.
    I can't wait to see you and hear about it all, thanks for keeping me entertained
    lots of love Janet xxxxx
