title A Visit to Sprint, Overland Park, Kansas City, Missouri, US - 16th January 2005 intro The final leg of this US trip takes Nosher over to Kansas City, which is in Kansas or Missouri depending on which bit you're in, to see some people at Sprint, the US mobile network operator. Whilst San Diego was around 20°C, Kansas is more like -10°C, so there's a bit of a change in climate. Whilst there, Nosher hires a car for a day to drive into the outskirts of Kansas City itself, but there was also some walking around the local Overland Park area, which is harder that it sounds as the roads aren't really made for crossing by humans. imgp2359 The engine sucks in the icy wastes below imgp2756 San Diego, as seen on take-off imgp2757 More aerial views imgp2759 The greater San Diego area and marinas imgp2760 The USS Nimitz sails out to sea imgp2762 Somewhere over Arizona imgp2765 Arizona or Utah imgp2768 More stunning geological features imgp2772 Part of the Rockies imgp2773 A plouged field in Kansas imgp2774 The Sprint campus at Overland Park imgp2775 Roaming around Sprint buildings imgp2777 The view from the hotel imgp2781 An evening view of I-435 and Metcalf Avenue imgp2785 You are in a maze of corridors, all alike imgp2787 A yellow fire hydrant, up Metcalf Avenue imgp2788 The Atonement Lutheran Church imgp2790 A frozen creek imgp2801 A row of news boxes imgp2803 A fountain near the Plaza Time Building imgp2804 It's oddly quite in the Plaza imgp2806 The Palace cinema sign imgp2809 More fake old buildings in the Plaza imgp2811 Another fountain imgp2814 Streetside Records, off-track near Westport imgp2815 The Westport Jazz District imgp2816 The unexpected sighting of a British K6 phone box imgp2819 More Kansas City back streets imgp2821 The Westport Methodist Church imgp2822 Some dudes have a chat outside the church imgp2824 The Zowie skateboard shop imgp2825 A back alley in Westport imgp2826 The Broadway Hardware Company, Westport
