About Me

I grew up in the south east suburbs of Melbourne and love my city. I have travelled a large part of the world and seen many places. Blogger is primarily my outlet for travel adventures but also currently for the model railway I am building.

1 Week to go

I have just over a week to go until i fly out for America. So what brings me to be heading to the USA next week? A couple of reasons, the furtherest i have been from my home in Melbourne is Adelaide and Newcastle, The O.C. Supertones are doing a reunion tour, the exchange rate is good and its a good chance to escape Melbourne winter for a month. I fly out of Melbourne at 6am on the 2nd of August, and return back to Melbourne on the 2nd of September.

Basically the trip will be split up into two weeks of each side of America. I will be doing a lap around The east coast taking in Boston, Gilford, Niagara Falls, Altoona, Washington, Scranton and New York. On the west coast Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, San Diego, Los Angeles, Yosamite National Park and San Francisco

As you can see i will be doing some of the standard touristy sort of things, but will also be doing some train spotting as well. I still would love to hire an American Muscle Car of late 60s early 70s vintage and do a day trip on Route 66 but i may play that a bit by ear.

  1. Hi Steve,
    Mum told me about your blog site, so I thought I'd check it out. Sorry we weren't able to catch up before you left, but I look forward to seeing your photos when you get back. I'm so excited for you about your trip - I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed by Canadian trip in 2004.
    I'm currently home with the flu :(
    It is my second day off, but I should be right for work tomorrow.
    Anyway, have fun and I look forward to reading your blogs,
    Love Fiona
