Considering he has to get a doctors prescription for tablets he needs to take to get on a plane I'd say he will need more than a couple of beers ��

Thank you so much! What a great answer.
Well. We will have to really think it over, maybe pull a MrT on him too... He is up for the bar but I said "everybody or nobody" :0)

After reading a lot about it in different sites and being quite fit ourselve, We decided to hire some bikes at Grand Csnyon and do a 21 mile round trip for main sightseeing. this will be day one. ...

Hi.
I'm thinking more general budget.

All the lodging is paid for. I guess we are more about budget for fuel/food/miscellaneous

Good idea about the pass for the parks. I have also booked...

hello again road trippers

what is your advise in terms of spending money?

Excellent feedback. Thank you all.

We will only book a couple of things here and there but nothing on Yosemite and Sequoia, as mentioned we prefer the outdoors and just soak it all in.

That's great. I wasn't sure if there was something we needed to book something. My idea was to be amazed at the view, but knowing these things are for tourists I didn't know if I should consider...

Another subject. Paid activities.

Are there any paid activities we need to consider during our stay in Yosemite and Sequoia that we should include or Is the best thing to do to just trekk?

Thanks Donna, we will allow for $3 per gallon

Fuel economy is a good point (although for us Brits fuel is extremely cheap in the US) when you are about to do 2.5k miles. I'm reading that on average $1.7 per gallon?

As long as there's air con...

Thanks Michael. A fusion it is then!

Changed the three nights in Mammoth lakes to one, and two in Yosemite West, you were right, when looking at the map that would've been a bit of a...

Having evaluated people's comments, I have made changes to my original plan.

I removed Sacramento and only include sightseeing in Carmel on our way to Santa Barbara, same with Los Angeles. I think...

I was doubting that choice, so we will go direct to SF, thanks.

I'll be posting the updated itinerary soon. Looks quite good how is coming along Thanks to all for your help so far.

I think we like the idea of lake Havasu City. Kinda relax by the pool after almost two full weeks non stop.

I'm looking st my current plan (before I ask again for advice) and wanted to check. From...

That's a great idea. I already saw savings from doing NYC/LV/LV/NYC, both on flights and car rental. I'll check other airports too, thanks!

One question, one of the suggestions was to go from San...

Thanks so much for the very good points raised. I will review the arrangements to see if I can make savings in flights etc. I already noticed returning the car to a different airport was adding to...
