USA 2009 (Collection of 13)

Our big vacation took us to the West Coast of the United States - arriving in San Francisco, from where we headed south down past Monterey and Santa Maria to L.A. and then over to Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, and back through Death Valley, over Tioga pass road into Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada up north to the Bay area. This was the first time back in the US since 1996 for me, and the first time for Isabelle alltogether.
