Statistics

All totaled Karla and George traveled over 9,700 miles in the 33 days they ventured forth.
3000 by air
5220 by Vanagon
1480+ by car

The VW Westfalia Vanagon camper (with new rebuilt engine) drove 5,030 miles using 278.1 gallons of gas.
An average of 18 miles per gallon.

We started in Sutton, Vermont.........drove to Manchester NH to fly to San Diego, Ca.
Picked up the Westfalia in El Cajon and limped to sister Sharons' in Temecula. After returning the van to El Cajon for repairs, we ventured to Santa Barbara with Sharon. Returning to Temecula, we decided to return a car and proceed with the vacation. While driving to Las Vegas (to see Penn & Teller), we wandered over to Death Valley. From Las Vegas to Zion National Park and on to Bryce Canyon for a few days/ Then took a round-a-bout loop back to Temeula....down to El Cajon (to pick up the re-engineered vanagon), back to Temecula..then off to Flagstaff, Arizona. The rest is documented in the blog..........What a trip it was.....

And ..."they proceeded on...."  the Westfalia Vanagon adventures have just begun..........

  1. I am amazed that we're back. No more MUD SEASON. I can't believe it's only been a month. The snow has melted, and there's GREEN everywhere.
