Arrived Alive!

Yesterday, we decided to do an all-nighter (2nd of the trip). The lack of scenery and the fact that otherwise we would not arrive in London until past 10 pm inspired us to take this drastic course of action. We arrived safe and sound in London by 12 pm.

The trip out of Colorado was the most scenic. The mountains were quite amazing. Around Vail there was the most blatant speed trap I've ever seen where speed limits on the mountain descents were about 10 miles/hour less than elsewhere in the state. The cops were in force trapping all the tourists. Thankfully, our little car could barely keep up in the mountains, so the speed trap did not pose a big threat for us.


Once you exit the mountains and hit Denver, the scenery turns boring real fast. You simply point the car in the desired direction and hit cruise control. The rest is history.

Now for the stats:

No. of Days: 11
Total Kilometres: 11, 055
Number of States Driven Through: 17
No. of Cop Encounters: 1
No. of School Visits: 4

Tune in tomorrow where I will give out the Trip Awards.
