Photos from our US and Canada road trip

It was a terrific trip in the US and Canada, partly for the tennis and partly
for the endless great scenery and things to do. Several of my tennis opponents gave their own comments on the matches, which can be found on the Tennis Warehouse website:

The trip occurred when we were on our way back to the UK from a year spent working in New Zealand. It turned out to only be a temporary return as we (myself and Jane) are back in New Zealand now. So our trip started out with two weeks in NZ's south island. This included a day at the beautiful Milford Sound.




We flew to San Francisco, stayed for a few nights and then drove inland over the Hoover Dam to the amazing Grand Canyon.





























We looped back down through LA and up the coast to San Francisco again, pausing for a stop by the Golden Gate Bridge.














Finally we got all the way up the coast to Vancouver, where Jane met a friendly bear.


















And shortly afterwards we ran across a slightly more dangerous one.














We flew from Vancouver to Toronto, and had a fun day trip at the Niagara Falls. It didn't have the isolated charm of Milford Sound but the waterfall itself was amazing.















We drove from Canada down through New England, in its incredible fall colours.














We headed across to Portland, then down to Salem, Hartford and ultimately Martha's Vineyard where our friend Sophie from the UK met us.














Our final stop was Boston, where we dropped in on a famous bar. Boston was a great city and was the perfect way to finish the trip.
