Lake Havasu, The View From the Front of My RV Site.
Yesterday morning left Surprise Az, and am now at Lake Havasu City Az, about 150 mi south of Las Vegas Nv. Lake Havasu is on the Colorado River and I will be here till Tues 8th Apr.
The London Bridge In Lake Havasu City.
In 1962, the British government decided to put the London Bridge up for sale because it could no longer cope with the volume of traffic across the Thames. An American, Robert McCulloch decided to buy it for nearly $2.5M, and arrange it to be transported, stone by stone, to Lake Havasu City in Arizona. After 7000 mi boat journey to Long Beach Calif, and a truck ride into the desert the reconstruction begin in 1968 and was completed 1971.
It is now Margarita time, later.
