We left around noon not realising that there had we stayed for a few hours longer we would have been within 20 miles of the epicentre of one of California's strongest earthquakes for quite a while!

It seems that the epicentre was in a place called Borrego Springs which we passed quite close to on our way to Scottsdale - however reports of our demise down the San Andreas fault are grossly exaggerated!
If you are interested - here are some of the news reports - if you click on any links or photos here they will enlarge in your browser for easier reading.

So it looks as though we left just in time - although in 2 1/2 weeks time we have to re-enter the "circle of fire" as we end our journey in Santa Monica..... but there's so much to come before that adventure..
