02/10/12: LA…the end of the road (for now)

We have reached the west coast and pretty much the end of the tour…but we still have more to see before we head home in a week or so. First, a quick catch-up from the last few days.

Las Vegas was definitely the high point of the trip. Awesome, epic, fantastic are a few words that come to mind – it has a vibe and liveliness we’ve never experienced. We’ve thoroughly enjoyed the other cities on the trip, LV takes it to a completely different level. Finally a suggestion for those considering a visit to Vegas: do not miss Fremont Street (the old street). It rocks!
Oops – the obvious question: did we have a win at the pokies? No. Nada. Nothing.
Today we called into Calico (an abandoned 1800's mining town between Vegas and LA):

We now in LA for two nights before heading up to San Francisco for a couple of days. We have no feel for LA yet, but we should get a good look via a bus tour tomorrow morning.
