USA December trip recommendations?
I'm visiting my son and grandsons in San Diego for a week or so from about
23rd December. Before that I'd like to take 7-10 days on my own elsewhere and would much appreciate recommendations please. Basically I'd like to fly from London Gatwick to an initial destination and then hire a car and work my way to San Diego, sightseeing en route, staying at motels. Or if the initial destination was too far away, do *some* driving but then fly the remainder. If it wasn't winter then I'd probably elect to visit Canyonlands, Moab, Yellowstone etc, places in the West that I missed on previous trips. Those included Boston, Bryce Canyon, Death Valley, Grand Canyon, Joshua Tree National Park, LA, Las Vegas, Meteor Crater, Miami, New York, Niagara, Palm Springs, Phoenix, San Francisco, Sedona, Sequoia National Park, Yosemite, Zion - and I may have missed some. I haven't got the maps and guides out yet so I'm wide open to all suggestions please. Tentative thoughts include maybe New Orleans (if it's no longer too depressing after the flood catastrophe?) or starting at some mid America location and traveling via a southerly (warm!) route westwards. If I wasn't on my own then I'd want to do some hiking but I reckon on this trip I'll stick to a 'drive and stroll' style. All ideas warmly appreciated please. -- Terry, East Grinstead, UK |
