We had really a great time in Arizona and found so many amazing spots for us to discover, but now it’s time to move on. First heading to Nevada for some car maintenance and some more highlights on the way, but then it’s time for Utah. However we had a […]
After our short stop in Utah; no worries, we are coming back, it was time for us to head to the Grand Canyon. Grand Canyon National Park Bit of a detour for us, but finally we made it to the Grand Canyon. Honestly not to bad at all, not many […]
