gas prices are absolutely unreliable in the States..... Seriously, the price of a gallon can jump or drop DRAMATICALLY in the matter of 1 day. Just reserve a lot of extra dough for gas.





Example--- Gas went from 4.20 a gallon to 1.79 in about 2 weeks.
Reply:You should definitely reserve a car in advance. If you can return it where you pick it up it will cost less. One way rentals can be expensive. Your estimate of 400 miles may be low, California is a big state. Try to find a deal with unlimited daily mileage if you can. Here's a link to California's tourism site. You can get maps, travel guides, etc.

I hope you have a great honeymoon.
Reply:G'day,





Well, you could head off in two directions.





North: Drive up to San Francisco along Highway 1, the coastal highway. It is very pretty and has places to stop and relax.





East: Head up to San Bernardino and then take Rt. 66 east to the Grand Canyon. It is a little bit more than 400 miles, but well worth the drive.





For some info on Rt. 66:

Reply:I wouldn't go to the states' for my honeymoon as it's not that remarkable. But if you do go then defiantly rent a car in advance. If the gas prices keep on going the way they are then rentals are defiantly going to be booked. Hope you have a good honeymoon!
