Christmas and New Year

19 Dec – 1 Jan 2013

We left the RV in Florida and travelled up in the car to Louise for Christmas.  We visited our friends in Alabama on the way and had a great time catching up with them since we last saw them in October. 

The drive up the I-65 and I-85 from Alabama to North Carolina, through Georgia and South Carolina, took 11 hours with torrential rain for all 500 miles!

We had a great Christmas Day with full turkey dinner cooked by Louise. 

During the last 10 days we have spent time relaxing, time with the pets (4 dogs, 3 cats, 4 guinea fowl) Seen the film The Hobbit, eaten too much and had fun at a New Year’s Eve party. 

We finish 2012 having had some excellent experiences.  Since arriving in USA 5 months ago we have travelled 9400 miles and visited 16 states. We’ve met some great people and made some good friends.   We’ve seen some different animals in the wild; chipmunk, opossum, racoon, as well as a variety of birds.

We are sad to leave here but also keen to get going again on our Adventures for 2013 ……………
