Despite growing up in the 'picturesque' city of Sunderland in Northern England, I had caught the American culture bug through reading crime novels and listening to Bob Dylan, but it wasn't until I arrived into California that I realised just how much. I felt like I had stumbled into my own surreal Hollywood movie. Palm tree lined streets, food portions that could feed the entire world and the glitz and glamour of the Hollywood walk of fame. This was just day one.
I would gaze upon the otherworldly beauty of The Grand Canyon, lose money in Las Vegas and venture through the musical realms of Memphis, and Nashville. I would enjoy spontaneous Jazz concerts on the streets of New Orleans, visit the scene of an assassinated president and enter the world of NASA.
I must confess that my journey wasn't straightforward and I would face many foes along the way. Never fear though, for I would be making this quest with my wife, so there was always someone there to blame me whenever anything went wrong.
