That's all for now Folks! We hope you'll be reading our blogs to come on our next little adventures. It was nice to see you enjoyed the Blog as we did too. Sadly we didn't always have internet or were sick and therefore had belated entries. But it was fun and we'll be sure to try again and hopefully even better next time. The trip was great! We had tremendous fun and will remember all the wonderful, hopefully not so the bad, moments all our lives. We made our way singing, laughing and simply enjoying ourselves through a for us very foreign country. We found new friends, great places and a completely new view of America and Americans. 75 hours and 21 minutes on the road, 4,231.5 miles, 23 days, 14 states and many many great ... read more

But there was still a new and exciting city to discover before we could get all sloppy and sentimental about having to leave! SF, I loved it already when I first discovered that they had croissants and normal bread!! Who on earth said it never rained in California by the way??? First things first, of to prison! Our first sight: Alcatraz. What? 26 $ p.p.!! But believe me, it was worth every penny. We set off on a little boat into the very stormy SF Bay. It was windy and drizzly, so most passengers were downstairs looking a little green. We didn't mind the fresh air and had enough of being sick, so up on the deck it was. When you get there, if you get there, you can wonder around quite freely on the grounds. ... read more

leider die Quintessenz dieses Stadtteils von Los Angeles. Irgendwie ist nirgends was los, selbst die Gangsterlis, welche überall herumhängen oder durch die Gegend strolchen, völlig verlahmt. Wenig Leute, wenig Verkehr, die Attraktionen sind zumeist ein wenig fad. Der Walk of Fame ist zum Teil Baustelle und voller Müll und ausgekipptem Waschwasser der Imbissbuden. Das einzige Leben bringen die überall verteilten Ausrufer der Touristenfänger, die einen nicht 10 Meter laufen lassen ohne einen anzuquatschen. Das Hollywoodschild, ehemals nur eine Reklametafel eines Maklers wohlgemerkt, ist erschreckend klein. Die direkte Innenstadt von Los Angeles wirkte, nun ja, überraschend entspannt. Kein Lärm, kaum Verkehr, kein Gedränge und das gesamte Downtowngebiet ein ruhiges und angenehmes Spazierengehen. Ganz, ganz anders als gedacht! Einfach eine ruhige Stadt voller Wolkenkratzer und leichtem m... read more

Yes, very funny... It's all about food... Now it may look like all we're doing is eating, especially junk food. But actually we are just having one warm meal a day, if at all. Mostly we are living off apples, nuts and other healthy snacks on the road. But now and then, especially after long and exhausting sightseeing walks like NY in a day, we just need something to stick our teeth into! Problem is, mostly all you can get in America that is eatable and affordable is junk food. We were in Tombstone on the 17th. We arrived early and had seen everything by 3pm. It was interesting but quite Disney Land like. We saw the old silver mine that had made the city rich, the bird cage theater and all the sights. Olly didn't ... read more
