    Hey @JustDen,

    Thank you for a near perfect experience we had with you, especially for my friend who was a first timer.

    Apart from the Bbq or camping that we never had :(( It was a great drive thanks to the route and variety of landscape in the area.

    Here are some pictures for our memories.

    Thanks for the nice trip and the help of getting my car out of trouble.
    Pictures are nice thanks for that. Attached the route on the map as we drove. If you want to have it as a file to import in Google let me know.
