Beste allemaal, Allereerst wil ik iedereen bedanken voor alle reacties op mijn vorige posts. Ik vind het echt heel leuk om die te krijgen. Ik vond het wel weer tijd worden voor een update dus bij deze: Eergisteren (vrijdag 14/08) ben ik op pad gegaan naar China Town. Zie bijgevoegde foto's. Eigenlijk heeft zo'n beetje elke stad wel z'n China town, maar het blijft leuk. Er wonen bijna alleen maar Chinezen, en er wordt ook bijna alleen maar Chinees gesproken, dus daar was ik héél blij mee; Mijn Chinees is niet zo sterk. In Chinatown heb je theehuizen en er worden [View Full Entry]

Whilst in San Francisco we knew we had to go over the Golden Gate bridge so we figured the best way to do this would be to hire bikes for the day. We hired bicycles from 'Blazing Saddles' and we now know why they are called that! After a day of riding, you will have a 'blazing saddle!...... We got up nice and early and headed down to Fisherman's Wharf where the bike hire company is located. We collected our bikes at around 9am and headed off towards Golden Gate Bridge. The weather was perfect, cool first thing and then lovely [View Full Entry]

Nou, hier beginnen mijn berichtjes dan. 12 Augustus vloog ik naar San Fransisco 's ochtends om 11 uur en ik moest 11 uur vliegen. Alles ging echt goed vooraf, maar de vlucht zelf was heel lang. Ik had het echt onderschat de lengte. Als je met anderen bent is het denk ik wel te doen, maar ik raakte de laatste paar uur echt heel erg verveeld. Nadat ik geland was (13:00 lokale tijd, 22:00 in Nederland) kwam de fameuze paspoort controle. Van alle, ongeveer 30, douaniers had ik uiteraard de meeste chagrijnige uitgekozen, maar ik werd na een korte check toch [View Full Entry]

Went to a really nice quiet restaurant for breakfast, had eggs, crispy bacon & real toast fro a change.......now this breakfast was delicious. Walked down to catch the trolley cart to Pier 43, got off & then caught a bus up to Lombard Street. We were going to see the most Crockiest Street in the World. To get up the hill we had to walk & yes the hill was very steep. It felt like 90 degress, tough going, my calves & thighs were burning by the time we got to the top. What a quirky little street, windy & crooked [View Full Entry]

Bula!! There's a word which Kiwis tend to often overuse - 'awesome'. However, there have been times on our travels where the word can be used wholely appropriately. After arriving in Fiji I was already missing New Zealand, not only for its scenery that really was genuinely awesome, but also the freedom of our campervan home that let us go where and whenever we liked. For the first 4 days of our time in Fiji, we travelled on a Feejee Expererience bus which despite its aim to show us the culturally rich 'real Fiji', frustrated us in confining us to a [View Full Entry]

I have no idea why I woke up at 5.00am but I did....it is what it is...right Jase!!!! Today was the day we go bike riding along the Golden Gate Bridge, this is going to be a big day. Stepped out of our hotel around 8.00, walked down to another little Diner called Max's & had breakfast it was good. Nice to have crispy bacon & eggs, but not so nice to get served up potatoes again, left these to the side, over the whole have fried up potatoes for breakfast. Walked down to catch a Trolley Cart which would take [View Full Entry]

San Francisco- officially the chilliest place in California! 27/09/09 - The day we left NYC We said farewell to saz for 6 months (me),9 months (iona), 3 weeks (feenz) and got our final yellow cab back to jfk, where we discovered terminal 8 is officially crap! There were rubbish shops,rubbish food places and it was so air conditioned it was like being in a fridge! We were also supremely disappointed to realise there was only one film on the flight to san francisco,and we didnt each have our own little tvs - sad times! Flying across America was really interesting - [View Full Entry]
