A 30 min drive from Yuma and we are in Los Algadones, Mexico. 'Genuine' Mexican lunch ... chimichungas, fajitas, tacos. A good experience everything cheap, but what exactly does one need and have roomMeer informatie

Medjool dates are a popular crop. Sell from about USD2.50 a pound - $10.00/kg NZ. Yummy!
Palm trees very healthy as a result of plenty of watering.

Huge crops around Yuma, mainly lettuce, broccoli, brassicas. 90% of all lettuce consumed in USA and Canada over winter is grown here. It's huge. Only possible thanks to Colorado River waters. MainlyMeer informatie

An ancient salt water lake in the middle of desert. Every few 100 years it is refilled as the Colorado river changes course then slowly evaporates and shrinks. Pretty desolate. Salton City on the westMeer informatie

Bit of a tourist stop of the road from Yuma to Las Vegas. The bridge was built in 1930 and originally spanned the actual River Thames in London, England. By 1962 is was not up to expected trafficMeer informatie

Every block was numbered as the bridge was dismantled in London, England to ensure the 10,000 tonne bridge would be reconstructed exactly as it had stood for 130 years.

A number of olde shoppes function nearby, plying their wares to visitors in a charming olde atmosphere.

A wonderful chance to see Gloria & Kim while in the USA this visit. They flew down from Vancouver for a few days. Travel was a bit of a nightmare for them, but it was awesome spending some timeMeer informatie

Stayed at the Westgate for a change...prob not again. Any hotel savings are spent on transport around the city. Interesting in this pic - yes, that is snow on them there mountains! Only ever been to Vegas in the heat of summer before, so snow was a bit novel!
