California Dreaming

My friend, Loly Mara and I decided to do a "Last Hurrah". Both of us approaching 70, we wanted to take a road trip while we were still able. Visions of Thelma and Louise went through our heads. We were going to travel California. Everything quickly fell into place. Loly got her U.S Visa. Family were very supportive. My son, Rob, rented a Hertz car with GPS so we wouldn't get lost. Airlines were canvassed for low fares. Loly chose China Airlines while I chose Northwest. We'll give you a review of services after the flights. The computer and Internet were a godsend. We were able to make all our hotel reservations in 2 days.
We leave for Los Angeles at the end of the month and start our expedition shortly thereafter. We'll keep you up to date with reviews and photos of all our stops along the way. We are particularly interested in updating senior citizens about the highs and lows of independent travel.
