I got home this afternoon from a weeklong roadtrip with my mum and aunt (DH is in Boston for work).
We've had soooooo much fun! We drove to Yosemite, Las Vegas, Anaheim (for Disneyland), Hollywood, then home. We've driven about 1500 miles (2400 km) in that time!
Yosemite was gorgeous with the Autumn colours, absolutely stunning. Las Vegas was fun - mainly the lions at MGM, they were easily my favourite part of Vegas! They were so beautiful, and in such good condition. They live at a ranch on the outskirts of Vegas and take it in turns to come to the enclosure during the day, and are never there for more than 5-6 hours at a time (the enclosure only has the lions from 11am-10pm), and seem to have a lot of fun playing with the keepers while they're there.
Disneyland was fabulous - we had sooooooo much fun! We were like kids again. We did pretty much every ride including all the little kids rides
Our favourite was probably the teacup ride - we did that twice
I can't wait to go back again!!
Hollywood was seedy as usual, but I got to catch up with a couple of friends while my mum and aunt did a tour, so I ended up having a great time!
I've got some of my favourite photos uploading, so will share them once they're done
The kitties were soooooo pleased to see us! DH left on Sunday so this was their 5th day alone (except for our neighbour visiting and looking after them). Little Smudge was so smoochy, as soon as anyone sat down she'd be on our chest smooshing her face against ours, kneading away and purring her little heart out. Such sweet kitties. I'm currently in my bedroom and Smudge is on the bed, judging by the snores, Stumpy is sleeping under the bed and Lily is curled up by the door - she never hangs out in our room unless we're asleep and the lights are off. Ha - she must have known I was typing about her - she just looked up, mewed at me and jumped on to the bed and rubbed against my face and is now giving Smudge a bath.
My mum and aunt are now at the airport heading back to Australia after one month of solid sightseeing!
Stay tuned for pics
