Road-trip, part1: California and Arizona

Here are the pictures of the road-trip that my brother Vlad and me have just done, form San Francisco to Mexico city. More than 4000 kilometres in three weeks... I will add text to these posts one day, but for the moment enjoy the pictures. On the technical side, I have not traveled with my Nikon, I chose the pocket Sony T9 for convenience.
