Quartzite, AZ to Blythe, CA
A day of fun!
So today was only like 23 miles... and everyone decided to have fun with it!
There were the great outfits and then the banana eating contest...can't take fruit into California! I like Fran's outfit the best! Way to pose! Those are Bayla's clothes by the way! love it!
Love that they ate at Del Taco! It's pretty much amazing! yum yum! then they went to the rebuilt London Bridge in Havasue, AZ. Here is the Wikipedia explanation: "In 1967, the Common Council of the City of London placed the bridge on the market and began to look for potential buyers. Council member Ivan Luckin had put forward the idea of selling the bridge, and recalled: "They all thought I was completely crazy when I suggested we should sell London Bridge when it needed replacing." On 18 April 1968, Rennie's bridge was sold to the Americanentrepreneur Robert P. McCulloch of McCulloch Oil for US$2,460,000. The claim that McCulloch believed mistakenly that he was buying the more impressive Tower Bridge was denied by Luckin in a newspaper interview.[9] As the bridge was taken apart, each piece was numbered to aid re-assembly. The bridge was reconstructed at Lake Havasu City, Arizona, and re-dedicated on 10 October 1971. The reconstruction of Rennie's London Bridge spans the Bridgewater Channel canal that leads from Lake Havasu to Thomson Bay, and forms the centrepiece of a theme park in English style, complete with a Tudor period shopping mall. Rennie's London Bridge has become Arizona's second-biggest tourist attraction, after the Grand Canyon.[10] "
