Hi There,
I am from Sydney Australia and I'm planning to travel to Los Angeles in March 2006 and drive to New York. I'm allowing about 3 weeks to travel from L.A to N.Y and another week to stay in N.Y to do touristy type activities.

I have spent around 5 hours planning the route in which I'd like to take and I am open to any suggestions or comments people might have as to exactly where to go and stay etc. Please let me know if I am not allowing enough time to travel between destinations etc.

Here it is:

4th – 6th March: Days 1 & 2 – Los Angeles
7th – 8th March: Days 3 & 4 – Las Vegas
9th March: Day 5 – Grand Canyon
10th March: Day 6 – Travelling between Grand Canyon & Albuquerque
11th March: Day 7 – Albuquerque
12th March: Day 8 – Travelling between Albuquerque and Amarillo
13th March: Day 9 – Amarillo
14th March: Day 10 – Travelling between Amarillo and Oklahoma
15th March: Day 11 – Oklahoma City
16th March: Day 12 – Tulsa
17th March: Day 13 – Springfield
18th March: Day 14 – St. Louis
19th March: Day 15 – Normal
20th – 21st March: Day 16&17 – Chicago
22nd March: Day 18 – Between Chicago and Detroit
23rd March: Day 19 – Detroit
24th Day 20 – Cleveland
25th Day 21 – Buffalo (Niagra Falls)
26th Day 22 – Syracuse
27th Day 23 – Albany
28th Day 24 – 30 – New York

Details are fairly basic at the moment. I hope to stop at Motor Inns or Budget Hotels on the way.

What do you guys think?
