Routes
Taken During Our Journey |
We commenced
our journey October 1997 Starting from Denver, Colorado, our
journey of four adults (Myself, my Brother and our Wives) was
made by car with overnight stops using motels e.g.: Super 6,
Super 8, Travelodge etc, all were at a reasonable price with
good services and security, In Las Vegas we stayed at Circus
Circus in a family room and this was the cheapest room of them
all !!! (Warning if you intend to stay over weekends in Vegas
make sure you book your accommodation) I would certainly recommend
the journey, but with children allow a little more time, In fact
we were like kids ourselves astonished at some of the places
we saw and visited. Visitors to the United States will be amazed
at the low prices especially the Petrol (Gas)
