About Us

Couple of retirees who really enjoy travel - particularly roadtrips to the deserts and prairies. We suspect we must be nomads as characterised by Richard Grant as RV resident retiree nomads in his book "Ghost Riders"

Day 28 - Back to Phoenix

Last evening at the Mexican restaurant was good food-wise and also as there was football (soccer) on the TV there. Didn't see any European, but did see the results; we watched a team from Mexico v Houston, it was a draw 4-4.
After an excellent hot breakfast at the Best W., we set off East on the 69 to the Interstate 17, stopping off for petrol and free coffee this time. Arrived in Phoenix early afternoon and went to a mall for last-minute shopping and a Cinnabon - you've just got to have one before going home! Shopping done, we made our way to our motel, via a carwash, for our last night here. Temperature's currently around 104 degF, and we are both melting away. We have been in our room about half an hour and so far two trains have passed - tooting - about 100 yards away; once again we failed to notice the proximity of a railway line, you've got to laugh... :-)
