So, missed out on last weeks post, but still stationary in Lake Havasu City - crazy town - see the history here...
The whale went in for its mani-pedi and quite a bit of money later is sounding really well. Unfortunately we are still waiting on 2 parts so it will have to go in again later in the month (which will cost a lot more $$$$), maar nou ja, so is life.
Good news is that I finally bought a toad - a car to pull behind the RV. Definitely going to need it going up the west coast. Its a Suzuki Samurai (a Barbi jeep) - less than 2000 lbs weight, however, it is a 1987 model, so has some miles on it.
It is at the shop still as it needs a head gasket and some TLC, but still a good buy and a great TOAD.
Except for doing a lot of cycling around Lake Havasu, also did some hiking in Sara State park - they have a pyrotechnic festival there (last week) where manufacturers from all over the world come and have firework displays for ??? someone. I am not a big fan of fireworks as I find it gets boring very quickly, so did not see any of it. The hike however, was awesome.

Stopped off at the local Yacht club. Flashed my Quartzsite member card and got a drink on the house + got introduced to the Commodore and the whole crew. Lots of fun.
