Welcome to Episode 12! We explored magnificent Big Sur off the California coast during the biggest storm of the season and the waves did not disappoint.

We also spent 2 weeks in Monterey hiking the trails around Point Lobos State Natural Reserve, watching the sea life swim by at the Monterey aquarium, exploring the cute shops and pristine sandy beach in Carmel-by-the-Sea, along with a final day of sea otter spotting at Moss Landing.

In this week's episode we also bring you behind the scenes on all the things that have broken in our trailer since we left home!

Welcome to Episode 11! We enjoyed our time in Palm Springs. We hiked to the Black Mountain Fire Tower and ended the day in the idyllic town of Idyllwild. We also had our first overnight camping trip in the Alu Cab at Joshua Tree National Park.

From there we headed to LA and watched Caden dip his toes in the Pacific Ocean for the first time! We had a Christmassy time in Solvang where we tried many danishes and hung out with the ostriches too.

We also take you through our 2 week shakedown trip, our first real experience living in our trailer. It rained, it hailed, things broke and Rory got skunked!

Welcome to Episode 10! We stay in Tucson Arizona where we visit the PIMA Air & Space Museum and Caden explores the super-interactive Children's Museum.

Then we travel to Mesa and stay next to the town of Fountain Hills which, well, has a giant fountain. And we go a beautiful hike with a harrowing river crossing.

We also share in detail how we prepared for full-time life on-the-road. Everything from finding insurance providers to taking driving lessons for towing a trailer!
