Lake Havasu, AZ


Jill, Dan & kids only stayed one night with us at Lake Havasu. It was a nice RV Park. The members stayed across the street with the really nice swimming pool and nicer spots.
The Coast-to-Coast people (that is us) stayed on the other side with the smaller pool and RV sites, but we could swim where we wanted to and we all co-mingled for the activities.


We ate breakfast one morning at the club house and one evening we played bingo (we didn't win anything). Everyone was really friendly.


Lake Havasu is a really pretty lake. We went fishing one morning. They say they catch a lot of fish out of it, but we didn't have any luck. I keep forgetting to take the camera with me. I will try to do better.


We rode a ferry boat across to the California side to a casino on an Indian reservation (the lake is made by the Colorado River, which is the boarder between Arizona and California). It took about 20 minutes. We walked around, waded in the water a little, and then took the ferry back.

London Bridge was brought from England by the Mr. McCullough of chainsaw fame, and rebuilt at Lake Havasu City. It crosses a channel of the Colorado River. We crossed it over to an Island where there was a bike path. As we were riding our bike, one of the tires split most of the bands holding it together. Thank goodness we were able to finish our ride and get back to the pickup before it went flat. We ended up putting two new tires on the bike. We left Lake Havasu and headed to Yuma.
