Lanelle Visits me in the USA

During her month long world tour (mid October to mid November '99), my sister Lanelle stopped over in San Diego. Here are some of the fun things we did

Old Town

Margarita Nolte.

Smile if you had Tequila.

Pumpkins at Old Town Entrance.

The Cigar Shop.

Sea World

Dolphin Show.

Eel.

Sharky.

I am a Walrus.

Visitors resting.

On The Road

Needles.

Hoover Dam.

Horsing around in a ghost town.

The ever present Route 66.

Malibu.

Arizona Desert

Arizona is just Great!

Arresting some indigenous specimens.

But he damaged the upholstery.

London Bridge used to fall down, until a crazy American bought it and re-built it at Lake Havasu City, in the middle of the Arizona Desert! (Finn Speiermann felt quite at home so close to London.)

And they did not spare the details.

Grand Canyon

First View.

Sunset Shiver.

Why they call it Grand.

Las Vegas

I rode that roller coaster over the New York Casino.

Outside the Luxor Casino.

We stayed on Las Vegas Boulevard….

We did not stay here.

Treasure Island Casino.

Shme.

On the Strip.

Uh, waiting to be served.

An honest bum - 'Why Lie, I need a Beer.'

Actually, the whole Las Vegas is full of bums.

Death Valley

Our camp at the lowest point in the Western Hemisphere.

Last stand of the Pupfish. Death Valley used to be a giant lake and this salty, hot stream is all that is left. The Pupfish has adapted to live here though.

In the 20's a rich (crazy) American chose to build this castle in Death Valley. A character named Scotty later lived there.

Hollywood

Kissing the original Star.

A nice smile might have made her a star of the latest Monty Python.

Barbie and I spent the night in this Beverly Hills club.

A pretty woman grabbing a few last minute items on Rodeo Drive.
