USA Honeymoon

Post by Airwolfhound »

Hi,

As mentioned in earlier threads, Amy and I went on honeymoon a few weeks ago to the US. We managed to fit alot in, was around a 2,500 mile roadtrip, and saw some amazing sights as follows :-

Nice set there.

All but the Missile test range and the hover dam I have been too. Monument Valley I have been to twice, being lucky enough to camp out in the valley itself with the Navajo indians under the stars. All the places you have been to are amazing and I am sure will live in your memory as much as they do mine.
Your shot of the grand canyon that hit explore is particularly nice.

Cheers

Pete

Cheers for that, Pete. We loved it at Monument Valley, we stayed nearby at Kayenta for a couple of nights and explored the area. Would certainly go there again :-)

Incredibly beautiful landscapes. It's one of my ambitions to see these amazing places for myself some day! :smile:

Now that's what I call a honeymoon! Very interesting shots.
I am shocked to see how low lake Mead has become, it was low when we visited a few years ago, but not as bad as that.... :shock:

Lovely images of the trip.
No1 is a classic, well executed.
Had the good fortune to visit Las Vegas many times, courtesy of HMtQ and loved it each time.
Top memory are the HUGE fish in Mead, and straddling both state lines across the dam.
Never made it to Area 51, thanks for the images

Many thanks for the kind comments :-)

Number 1 is now a large canvas on our living room wall :grin:

We only had a couple of nights at Vegas, but thankfully left in profit.

Thanks again :-)

We visited the Grand Canyon some years ago, (2003 if I remember correctly?) has to be seen to be believed, same can be said for Vegas!
