Feb 26 and 27, 2020 Lake Havasu City

On the way to Lake Havasu City, we traveled beside the Old Route 66...and as luck would have it, we were passing through on the wrong day.

On several street corners, there was a sign, and usually an era car to help you remember when.

Even the streets were marked.

The older couple in this car were just out cruising.

After finally arriving in Lake Havasu City we followed signs to London Bridge. We thought were kind of far away from the real London Bridge...

...until we learned that this is the original.  This was great, because instead of Grammie going to London to see it...she was already there...so to speak.  Check out the story here.  London Bridge

McCullough did many wonderful things for the town.

When the London Bridge could no longer hold the weight of cars, it was put on the auction block and McCullough won the bid.  The bridge was labeled, disassembled, transported to Lake Havasu and reassembled again.

 
 Plenty of warm day activity going on down below the London Bridge.  People were taking the Casino cruise.

You could rent your own pontoon boat to head down to the lake, but only at wake speed.

Governor McCullough even purchased the lamp posts that went with the bridge.

This is the 2nd time on this trip that we saw locks on a bridge.  Some have been there for decades.

Adventurous Grammie rode an a Segway before but, she didn't have her bathing suit today.

Grammie couldn't wait to get inside.

And the best boat craft of this  beautiful day was the hut boat, complete with bar.

If you ever get the chance to stop by in Lake Havasu City, stop by.  Grammie might still be here.
