Hi,

Me and a friend are planning a road trip from Vancouver BC to San Diego during the months of July and August 08. We are both from Scotland, UK and it would be our 1st time in America. We have about 4 to 5 weeks to play with.

I have no idea on where to start. What are the places we should visit and how expensive is it renting a car for that amount of time and fuel charges etc. Where are the best/relatively cheap (and safe places) to spend during the nights. What are the routes to take etc.

We are completely new to this type of thing. The furthest I've ever travelled by car is like 200miles at best :)

Any help would be awsome!

Cheers
