The Concept!

The plan is to drive around America in an RV visiting as many cool exciting places and experiencing as much of the culture as possible in 6 weeks.
It would be nice to do it without getting lost!...Glenn
It would also be great if we could do it without a backseat driver!...Kate
... and if we could do it without killing each other or our children it would be even better.

Yea haa!

So we got up early so we hit Fort Worth, Texas, after lunch. We drove through Oklahoma (so pretty, a lot like Bowral or Berry but on steroids) and Oklahoma City. All the big cities look the same - very crude compared to Australian cities to be honest, we are very surprised. Fort Worth however is beautiful, you can see the oil money in the architecture and landscaping. This afternoon we hit the shops because I packed for cool weather and it's stinking hot. After three frustrating hours I ended up with a need for a stiff drink and a lie down. The American woman is obviously 5 foot five, a mini van driving soccer mum who works part time as a hooker - even in the nice department stores everything was either too mumsy and too short or too short, trashy and flammable - I may never be able to wash off the polyester stench. I do like that my equivalent size is 4 or 6 here so I was particularly devastated because the last time I wore 4's and 6's was when I wore clothes sized to match my age.

We are just pulling into a nice leafy rv park so I will sign off but once we have wifi I will upload more pics for you
