When thinking about epic road trips, one of the first destinations that springs to mind is the USA where you can drive up, down, across, around or straight through every state in the country. From revelling in yesteryear along the iconic Route 66, marvelling at spectacular sunsets on the Pacific Coast Highway, cruising around the stunning national parks of Utah and Arizona, absorbing the vivid beauty of New England in the fall or for connoisseurs of music then the Deep South

Sue and her friend were keen to celebrate a significant birthday by ticking off Route 66 from their respective bucket lists, so they began their preparations by contacting me a year in advance of their proposed trip. Due to other commitments, they had just 14 nights and although I'd ideally recommend a few more, it can be driven in two weeks if you are prepared for single night stops in most places. I do love to hear about a great road trip. Here’s how they got on... Route 66
