Another year, another visit to the U.S.A! 😀
So, what do we have in-store this year? 🤔
We fly off to Las Vegas (that’s a surprise!🤭) on 17th May. Our followers will know that our last visit was in 2023 when we had a fantastic win at the Park MGM casino on the final morning of our holiday. A great way to finish a wonderful holiday.
We will have one night at the Bellagio Hotel. I hear the cheese plate calling to me! 😉
The cheese plate and Champagne
I was disappointed in 2023 when I discovered the new Chef had changed the make-up of it. 😔 There used to be a choice of crackers and breads whereas now it’s just the garlic bread! Still, better than nothing! 🤷♀️ We will then drive via Salt Lake City to our favourite place, the Grand Tetons in Wyoming.
We will be spending 10 nights in a lovely cabin at Dornans (not like the one we spent 8,000 feet above sea level in Gardener, outside Yellowstone National Park some years back where I got altitude sickness. There were holes in the walls and spiders ran amok!!) 🤣 I know I’ve mentioned it previously but that will stay with me for the rest of my life! 😱
From there we will travel again, via Salt Lake City, for a four-night stay in Capitol Reef National Park in Utah. Some of you will remember we stayed there on our 2023 trip but I caught Covid and wasn’t well enough to do much. We hope to right that wrong this time. 🤞
We will then drive to Williams, Arizona (situated on the original Route 66) for three nights and will be travelling on the Grand Canyon Railway for a day-trip to the South Rim of the Canyon. We have visited the South Rim before but never arrived by train. 🚂
Our original plan this year was to stay in a cabin on the North Rim but after seeing some disturbing reports on the cabins and eating facilities we changed our plans and settled for a day-trip to the South Rim instead.
We will finish our holiday in Las Vegas (cheese plate here I come ……. again!) for four nights before flying home. ✈️
We look forward to you joining us on our new adventure. 😀
Wow , how lovely
P&T xx

Looking forward to travelling with you.
Thanks Malc. xx

Sounds fab. 44 years ago we stayed in Williams Arizona. Altitude sickness? Now that’s a bitch, suffered like crazy last year whilst in Yellowstone. We need to to revisit and checkout the Tetons. Will be travelling with you!!
Hi, thanks. You too! Yes, AS is horrible! Wow, I wonder if Williams has changed any? Nick Knowles visited there recently on his Grand Canyon adventure and travelled on the train too. Yes, you must go back and include the Tetons. Hope you’re both well. xx
Sounds like a wonderful trip, look forward to your daily blog. I got AS in the Andes, place called Puno on the shores of Lake Titicaca. Great trip but glad to get down to a lower altitude x
Me and Hilary were just talking about when you’d both be off again! Hope you both have the most amazing time!! ❤️❤️❤️ xxx
May! Gosh I thought they had gone!! Thought it was April and couldn’t understand why S & S were so quiet! Muppet! I wait with anticipation!!!!
🤣🤣🤣Counting down the days! x
Thank you. Can’t believe how it’s suddenly crept up on us! 🤷♀️🥰xxx
