Watch out for the price of Australian wines in Australia. We found that, ironically, they were 2 to 3 times higher than in California. Actually, this goes for any alcohol in Oz

Well Dan - You know you are right in a way down here. All the regular stuff - look to the right before stepping off the curb, left turn into the traffic circle and then there was the showstopper.. you know those revolving doors at the fancy hotels?

They go backwards….yeah - it will stop you in your tracks. Unnatural.

Last week was Hwy 6 in Utah
Beautiful drive.

Pay attention…

2. Highway 6​

Highway 6 has not only made it onto our list of most dangerous roads in Utah, but according to NPR, this route is also one of the riskiest rural drives in the country. Since 1996, there have been more than 150 accident deaths as well as 500 serious accidents on just that middle portion of the highway. From Spanish Fork down to Price, this 60-mile stretch of roadway snakes through canyons on a tight and twisting route. Here are the risk factors you’ll want to keep in mind when traveling on Route 6.

Risk Factors:

  • Narrow traffic lanes
  • High freeway speed
  • Busy truck route from SLC to Denver
  • Frequent risk of head-on collision
Unfortunately, Highway 6 is not the best route to pass slow-moving vehicles on. Many fatal accidents occur on this roadway because drivers end up crossing into oncoming traffic. If you travel along the Wasatch Mountains on Route 6, drive safely and watch for oncoming traffic.
 
If you go to Melbourne watch out for hook turn, a right-hand turn made from the left-hand lane with trolly in middle. When we rented a car the agency showed us a lot full of totaled cars from tourist that did not understand the concept
 
Thank you!!!

I may owe you a glass of wine at Legends!
