Rodeo, vegas, ball game and near death experiences

Day 30

Woke up still drunk, still wearing last nights clothes and somehow Tommy's tutu.  We went to macy d's for breakie and saw Tommy's group aswell.  We were on the way to Bryce Canyon today.  We did a small 3 mile hike was well good and it sobered me up.  Abby told us we were going to a rodeo tonight which i cant wait for it is going to be so much fun.  We had dinner then went to the rodeo which was amazing.  We went to Tommy's group for a camp fire and some smores.

                                     

                                     




Day 31

Got up early as we were going to Zion today.  The drive wasn't that bad and was quite a short one.  When we got to Zion we were told we were'nt able to do the Angel's landing hike today as it had been raining and they were expecting more.  So we just did the Upper Emerald pool after we dropped of the trailer.  Had a few drinks while doing some laundry.  We watched the hangover but the car battery and laptop died so we went to bed as a few of us were going to do the angel's Landing at 5.45am tomorrow then it is VEGAS BABY!!!






 Day 32

A few of us got up early to do the Angel's Landing.  We went with Tommy's group which was good, so glad i got up early to do it.  The views were so worth it.  We went back to the camp and had pancakes and bacon for breakfast yum yum.

We were all so excited on the drive to Vegas we had been looking forward to this for so long.  We were staying at the Excalibur hotel which was like a huge castle and the views were amazing.  We had a limo tour of the strip and we saw the Bellagio fountains and the Fremont Street Experience which was so amazing.



                                      

Had a look around the strip today and had a look in the lobbies of all the hotels.












Day 34

Got up early to find our trailer had been stolen.  So we had to try and pack all our stuff into Tommy's trailer. We were going to San Diego today and going to watch a baseball game tonight.  The game was so amazing.





Day 35

We had a free day today so some went to the zoo while others went to the beach.  We went out for dinner in a local restaurant and chilled out at camp as some were leaving tomorrow when we got to LA.

Day 36

We got up early to leave for La and to finish the tour. We were all so sad as we this would be the last time we would be together.  

We did a tour around La trying to spot celebs but sadly we didn't.  We went along the walk of fame which is so long and then chilled out at Santa Monica beach loved it.  We had a last meal and drink together with the people that were still here.




Day 37

Left early this morning to head to Yosemite National Park.  On the way there we visited the famous bubble gum alley downtown San Luis Obispo, California.


The campsite is so amazing a bit like the first campsite i stayed in.  Had an early night as tomorrow gotta get up early for the Half Dome hike.

Day 38

Up at 4.30am this morning to get a early start on the Half Dome as it is a big hike.  It took 12.5 hours to get to the top it was so hard.  When i got to the cables it was the hardest and most dangerous part as the the rock surface was slippery.  I ended up losing my grip and fell backwards never been so scared in my life.  Once back at camp i had a few beers think i deserved them.










Day 40

Trip to San Francisco before i go home. Sadly i couldn't go to the Alcatraz gutted about it as i really wanted to go.








Well America it has been an experience
