The day of vista's (432kms)

Today we did a massive drive from Oakhurst in California to Reno in Nevada. It was a day of amazing sunshine, incredible views, windy roads and roadworks. Lake Tahoe is massive and would be fun in ski season we went for another nice walk here. We are now in Reno and about to hit the bars and casinos - should be fun - wish me luck.

Observations:
• There are alot of wooden carved bears everywhere
• A Viking Castle is alot smaller than other cultures ones
• New name for scary narrow roads "Snarrows"
• Snapple iced tea is yum
• Always pack lots of snacks as you never know when road blocks will turn a 4 hour trip into a 7 hour one
• Don't squeeze new moisturiser bottles in high altitudes - they explode
• California has the most diverse landscapes - from green to brown and sand to rock
• In and out burgers are great but fried chips are never good
• I love that you can get iced tea at fast food places and not sweetened
• Saw a forrest fire - hope everyone is OK
