Aerial Tramway
On Friday, it was time to head back to LA to return the rental car and pick up the camper. We already knew it would be a very long day, but unfortunately, it ended up being even...
The Americans are indeed a bit 'unique', and we haven't quite warmed up to their 'always friendly but completely forced' nature (and probably never will 😉). However, they are...
