Miles driven: 4122
Most miles in a day: 398 (June 11, Lake Isabella to Mariposa including Sequoia National Park and needing to double back from wildfire near Bakersfield)
Least miles in a day: 0 (June 15 - the cable cars take the load in San Francisco)
Nights in Kamps of America Kabins: 13, best Mariposa, worst Craig.
Nights in hotels: 7, best Bashful Bob's in Page, AZ, worst Bluff, AZ.
Children's favourite activity: Disneyland, Circus Circus in Las Vegas.
Favourite National Park: Arches (Rachel), Zion (me), Zion (Hannah), monorail in Las Vegas (Sam)
Favourite meal: tapas in San Luis Obispo.

No time for anymore. I'll write again in Melbourne.
