Goodbye to the USA

As we say goodbye to the USA, I thought it would be worthwhile sharing some impressions..


GOOD
The people:        Friendly, polite, helpfull.....and that includes the young
Driving:               An absolute joy (except the cities). US drivers are much more civilised than UK ones
National parks:   Well organised, cheap and priority given to the environment and wildlife (except Yosemite)
Internet access:  Almost everywhere..and free!
Recycling:           Widespread

BAD
The Food:         Really awful
Hunting:             The hunting lobby is very powerful.
California:          Has the food hygene standards of a third world country.
RV's:                  Recreational Vehicles. These are 'obscene'. They have a living area in excess of many peoples homes, with all possible luxuries. A huge one ran us off the road....

OVERALL.     A great country with great people....but could do more to save energy
