Blogs from California, United States, North America - page 1007

Welcome! This is the begining of our trip, and we're trying to figure out this travel blog thing so every body can follow us on our journey. We're starting off in California, we moved out of our house a couple days ago and quit our jobs a few weeks before that. We're now at Brandi's wonderful mom's (and Dave's) house in San Rafael, and from here we're thinking about going up to Sacramento for a few days before we get to some hardcore driving. Right now, we're doing a lot of work on the bus, putting on the finishing touches. Gimli (yes, named after the Lord of the Rings character) is going to be converted to running on veggie oil this weekend, so we're really excited about that! We are setting up our surround sound system ... read more

Soo, what can I say. Well I haven't got much time to write now, been here in the Internet cafe for over 2 hours trying to catch up on emails etc, and time is running out! Well, we went Las Vegas, took the bus there from LA. We got there pretty late so we just put our bags down in a hostel, got ready and left. Vegas, wow, what a cool place! I loved it.

Met some other cool people from Germany who we were hanging out with the flllowing night too when we went to ... read more

Seufer6: Destination: Laguna Beach: January15-18, 2007 Monday January 15, 2007 Martin Luther King Day After so much fun in Disneyland, we decided to turn it down a notch and head south for a few days of relaxing in the beautiful artsy town of Laguna Beach, California. We arrived after a short drive to the ULTRA luxurious Montage Hotel and Spa, checked into our room, unpacked a little, put on our swimsuits and headed for the pool, which was just feet from our door. We swam, hot tubbed, walked to the beach, and enjoyed the sunset. As the sun set, the weather cooled, so we headed back to our room where Tanner fixed all his sisters sandwiches and strawberries. They were yummy. By the presentation of the turkey sandwich and strawberries on the plate, he is destined ... read more

So last year we went to almost a dozen cities in Europe, mostly in the Balkins and had a great time. But we aren't so into the organized tour scene so, for the most part we did our own research and had tours and info all ready before we got there.....fun but lots of work. In San Francisco, we found this site where we bought a tour and loaded it on to our iPods. It came with a PDF file that had a map and a sheet that showed how to get from one stop to another. It was soooo much esier than doing all the research and kept us off the bus tours too. I spent $20 for a half day tour for four people. It was very cool. The site is www.citystorywalks.com. I think ... read more
