The team assembles…

Filed Under Madness, News

Well, the first half does at least! I just arrived at my hotel in Phoenix, having flown from Providenciales to Miami this morning and then from Miami to Phoenix this evening.

The MIA-PHX flight was delayed by 40 minutes but landed only 15 minutes late so that was no big deal.

Slightly more interesting was the discovery that the Hilton Garden Inn had no record of my reservation (made through Expedia.co.uk), and the hotel was full…. Fortunately they found me a room but I will have to call Expedia and get a refund when I return home.

We have a Jeep (not a Similar!) so we are all set – I will be collecting Mr T. from PHX at 11.30 tomorrow and then the UHRT can start in earnest!

A word of thanks to our “sponsors”

Filed Under Madness

Actually we don’t have any. Sponsors that is. Not for want of trying – Jésus has been out at all hours tramping the streets of Houston with his begging bowl and pack of brochures – but to no avail.

So we had to invent some.

You may feel they are suspiciously similar to certain real organizations or companies, but that is merely an illusion, I assure you. This blog and the UnHipRoadTrip itself are entirely paid for by private donations (i.e. us).

Maybe we can get a bail-out from Chrysler for driving one of their Similars…
