Day 11




After we woke up. Me and Mel walked to Garfield to look for porridge. But could not find any. We bought some Chinese deep fry stick & cake from a small dimsum store on Garvey. We drove the trailer to San Gabriel/Garvey 99market/mall to eat porridge. Then we went to San Gabriel/Valley road to buy small cake deli and ate lunch. We walked around a bit and got 3 pearl drinks in Quickly on Valley for the road.

We drove to Camping World in Santa Clarita but did not find anything we needed. We then went next door to Walmart to buy some cheaper RV stuff. We drove to Bakerfield to sleep for the night.

Day 10 - At Peg Leg Monument - near Anza-Borrego

We said goodbye to our neighbor Jerry and the dog Gus. (Gus is very good at catching ball)

The other neighbor in a Class A American Flyer from Canada also came say goodbye and excuse for the missing due to broken femur bone. He inched across 2 parking space on the sand with the hand frame support. His name is Ted and he broke his upper leg 2 weeks ago. He is 74 years old. We drove toward Salton City and stop by a casino to fill up water for Law to get showers. We drove to Coachella Spot21 casino parking for Law to take shower. Drain off some water in rest area near Palm Spring. Arrived in Monterey Park about 6pm. Ate at Tintin. But the food was not very good this time especially the sweet & sour pork which have very little deep fry and too large a cut each piece. And it cost a lot more than large 2 times. Should not be going there anymore. After dinner, we walk along Garvey and look for good overnight parking spot. We find a parking lot with new empty office. Got some food at Kwong Wah market.

Day 9 - Slot Canyon - Anza-Borrego SP

We went visit the slot near the Butte Pass Road. We started walking left but it was a dead end. Then we use a bigger 4x4 road next to it. But it routed a big circle in order to get to the slot. We turned around after a mile. We used the other end instead. Mel stayed in the truck while me and Law scrambled down the canyon and started there. We reached the slot very soon and took a lot of pictures.
