This is a pictural account of our road trip from Los Angeles to New York in March and April 2006. We landed at LAX, picked up the car and drove. We had 19 days to get to New York.
We stayed in roadside motels in the main, but we did stay in a few more upmarket hotels on occasions. All I can say is 'If you have a sense of adventure and you dont mind driving for long periods of time, give it a go sometime'

I hope you enjoy browsing these photograph and if you have any questions please ask away and I will try to answer you as soon as possible.
