105km of Bumper to Bumper Traffic

And that is exactly what it was. Kurt and I decided to rather stay another night (Thursday night) at the Grand Canyon and instead of staying a night a Laughlin. This meant that we had 8 hours of driving to do, but it was worth it. It wasn’t a bad drive and although we’ve heard that traffic is really bad in Los Angeles, we’ve never experienced 105km of bumper to bumper traffic.

I believe that although there are more cars on the road here, the drivers are far less aggressive than in SA. It’s like Kurt said…..in LA you only need to really worry about what’s happening ahead of you, where in SA you have to look left, right and behind to make sure no one crashes in to you.

I have never seen so many highways linked together and if it wasn’t for our Tomtom (GPS system that gives you directions from your starting point till your final destination) we would have been completely lost.

Growth - Ferrucci (1982)

"Growth is understanding what we have not yet been able to conceive; feeling what we have never felt before; doing what we have never done before. It is daring what we have never dared. It may not, therefore, necessarily be pleasurable. It obliges is to leave our comfort zone, to progress into the unknown, to face the tremendous inpact of the Self."
