This is the first in a thirteen part series on our Great British Adventure. The series will take us from Lymington along the Hampshire coast to Somerset to Oxford to London. It was definitely an adventure to remember.

Bryce Canyon National Park
Bryce Canyon National Park is one of Utah's 'big five' national parks located in southern Utah and is extraordinarily scenic any time of year. This post is a hike up memory lane, detailing our 2015 summer trip.
Lower Arroyo Seco Trails
An iconic Southern California landmark is the Colorado Street Bridge in Pasadena, running alongside California Route 134 and Interstate 210, spanning what is known as the Arroyo Seco. The Arroyo Seco is a stream and watershed in Los Angeles County, beginning in the San Gabriel Mountains and meandering through Pasadena to the Los Angeles River in northeastern Los Angeles. There are many great hikes along the Arroyo Seco's 22 miles; this post covers some of the lower trails.
Descanso Gardens
Descanso Gardens, located in La Canada-Flintridge off Interstate 210, west of Pasadena, is described as "an urban retreat 20 minutes from downtown Los Angeles." The gardens boast 150 acres of botanical collections, pretty walking trails, and seasonal displays.
Joshua Tree National Park
About 130 miles from Los Angeles, California where the Mojave and Colorado Deserts meet, lies Joshua Tree National Park. Joshua Tree is home to a diverse population of desert-adapted species, including the famed Joshua tree for which the park is named. This post details our spring break trip taken in April, an ideal time to visit.
