Moi FinnTraveler!

(Mina oon puoliksi Suomalainen, mutta asunut ulkomailla jo yli 20 vuotta, Suomen kirjottaminen on jo vaikeaa... Mutta varmasti teille tulee hieno matka!)

(To the other folks here: I'm half-Finnish, hence the above comment...) You have a nice amount of time for this trip (we drove at a very easy pace from NYC to SF via LA in less than three weeks. In fact, I think you have enough time to consider going up the Utah and Colorado way (up to Denver and then back down) for some spectacular roads , gorgeous National and State Parks and general scenery - certainly something that you wouldn't get to experience in Finland. But of course, you may have chosen your route for personal reasons, and that would be perfectly understandable. Just something to think about.

And as AZBuck said, get on the NP accommodation booking asap (although we didn't camp in them either). Also, you'll be driving by Death Valley NP - the hottest place on the planet and one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen.

Turvallista matkaa!
