East or West Coast?
I have 2-1GB cards...
Between them I have the capacity for about 5,000 stills at 1024x768. I agree that memory cards are a convenient solution if you've got the capacity. However, 1024 x 768 is pretty low-res by today's standards. Most cameras these days are 3 to 5 megapixels, which means considerably few pictures could be stored on a card of that size. Jim |

Oops, I meant "fewer" pictures. You could still store a lot; just not as many as with smaller-resolution pictures. Jim |

"Real America" as most people defines it is small town USA. If you go down the east coast you'd be sure to find that, also in California. "Real America" can also be big cities ... just not coastal ones. Des Moines, Salt Lake City, Little Rock, even say Akron or Manchester and many more are "real America". New York, Washington, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles and San Francisco and all in between on the coast, and Seattle are not "real America". Doug McDonald Yea thats a real no brainer....... skip Boston, NYC and Chicago...........you'll have a much better time in Little Rock or Des Moines. |

What is so unreal about anywhere you named above? Even large metropolitan areas have neighborhoods with distinct identities and attributes where "real Americans" live. How do you define "real America?" |

New England is quite a long drive from Philadelphia. Also, make sure you don't take Route 1 until you're well north of Connecticut. [snip] Route 1 in Connecticut may be slow, but it is picturesque. I'd suggest taking the train from DC to New York and not renting the car until the original poster gets to New York.

Even large metropolitan areas have neighborhoods with distinct identities and attributes where "real Americans" live. From my post of March 3 in this thread: I think there is no such thing as "the real America" meaning the USA. Each region of this vast country has its own cuisine and culture within the general cuisine and culture. The variations get greater as the geographic location gets smaller. -- __________________________________________________ ______________ A San Franciscan who's visited 49 of 50 US states. http://geocities.com/dancefest/ --- http://geocities.com/iconoc/ ICQ: http://wwp.mirabilis.com/19098103 ------- IClast at Gmail com [Content below asterisks not mine.] ************************************************** ***************** .. *** Free account sponsored by SecureIX.com *** *** Encrypt your Internet usage with a free VPN account from http://www.SecureIX.com *** |

My husband and I are 68 and 66 respectively and do two week tours in the USA often and don't find it tiring at all-------------we always drive ourselves. A wee bit ageist methinks :-) For the OP----------I would suggest the New England area for your trip. Fly to Boston, hire a car there after a few days taking in the Boston area , Make sure you book the car in the UK ( trail finders give the best deal ) and wander around Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine, all are magical Elizabeth in Renfrewshire, Scotland.
