*note- there was a bit of a delay in publishing this entry, I've been back in the Netherlands since 14/9/05 Hey everyone... So we made it from the east coast over to the west coast! What a difference...We got to LA around midday, our shuttle bus driver told us all the stuff we had to know about staying in Hollywood (places to see, places to absolutely avoid), drove us all around the city too (OK so he had to drop off a few other tourists but still, we got the tour) Our hostel, the 'Hollywood International Hostel' was bang in the middle of Hollywood Boulevard, opposite the Kodak Theatre (where the Oscars are) and the Chinese Mann's Theatre. And the stars were on our doorstep (the stars in the sidewalk that is). We decided to ... read more

Apparently it is unadvisable to ask girls to dance while in Halifax. Sitting at a table at St. Alexander's Pub in Halifax with 2 middle aged rednecks from Red Deer talking about gas prices was hardly what I had enivisioned for my night on the town in Halifax.

Hallo allemaal, Allereerst (voor ik het weer vergeet): Allemaal HEEL erg bedankt voor jullie leuke opmerkingen/emails etc!!! Echt leuk om wat van het thuisfront te horen.... Na Sedona zijn we door het prachtige rode landschap richting Grand Canyon gereden. Ook dit was weer spectaculair. Tijdens de beklimming van het Colorado plateau hele mooie hoogte verschillen, met uitzicht op groene bossen. De Grand Canyon zelf is met geen woorden of foto's te beschrijven!!! Dat MOET je gezien hebben... Nu zo eten, en dan naar het Imax theater over de grand canyon. Morgen richting Kayenta ofzo, waar we 's middags Monument Valley gaan bezoeken! Groetjes, Jacinta en Ramon... read more
