A trip through time...
I don't like the character, but really a trip through time... Wonderful places, incredible views, and an atmosphere that brings the series to the moment of the visit... And congratulations to the guide driver Dusty: intelligent, dedicated, funny, and... demanding... A long day trip, but very rushed in the places and we want to stay a little longer...
