We checked out of the Cactus Hill motel and grabbed a late breakfast at the Coffee and Candy Cafe in Torrey. Our next stop was in Hanksville to fill up with petrol (slightly more expensive than last time at $3.19 a gallon) and to get a sandwich for lunch. We stopped at Hog Wash picnic…
We had the few bits of food we bought yesterday for breakfast in our room. We then headed down to the Capitol Reef visitor centre. They advised against the Notom-Bullfrog road in an ordinary car so we stuck to the paved scenic drive and short stretch of unpaved road at the end along Capitol Gorge.…
We were up fairly late, checked out online and went to have a late breakfast in the Ruby’s Inn restaurant. We picked up a couple of sandwiches for lunch from the shop. It was cold and raining so we had a backup plan of visiting a museum in Boulder. However when we got to Calf…
We checked out and headed straight through Zion. After passing through the mile long mount Carmel tunnel we stopped at a couple of lookouts to admire the eastern side of Zion park. Aside from a quick pit stop our next stop was at red rock canyon on the approach to Bryce canyon national park. We…
The Zion park shuttle buses finished running during the week last week. So we drove into the park, paid the $30 for a week’s pass and parked up near the grotto. We walked up the west rim trail towards angel’s landing. At scouts lookout we both decided that the roped climb and precipitous ridge to…
We had breakfast in Greenbergs again before checking out and hitting the road out of Vegas. We stopped off at the Walmart supercentre in Mesquite to get some bits for lunch and ended up sitting in the car in a nearby car park to eat it. Next stop was at the visitor centre and wildlife…
We went to Della’s Kitchen at the Delano for breakfast with Kate. Pretty expensive, but very good. Ady and I both had the pork benedict. We got the monorail back up to the Excaliber and walked to the Thomas and Mack for the last day of the PBR. JB didn’t ride due to a sprained…
We met Kate for breakfast at Greenbergs. A far more sensible croissant filed with egg, bacon and cheese this morning. We wandered across the road to the Adidas store and then bought tickets for Ka back at the New York New York concierge desk. We then got in the car and drove to Main Street…
We were up early and went to Tom’s Urban for breakfast, where Kate joined us for a coffee. Feeling stuffed after our four egg omelettes with sides we jumped in the car. A short journey down the I15 and we were at South Point for the PBR bull housing tour. There was an introduction by…
We were on the last flight of the season that Virgin Atlantic fly direct from Manchester to Las Vegas. We departed on time at 12:35pm and arrived at McCarran just after 3pm. The nine and a half hour flight was very smooth. We enjoyed the free alcohol and were plied with plenty of food. After…
