Back in San Francisco

Around sunrise I woke up and I happily parked next to a Starbucks. I went there for a cappuccino and internet. After I checked the mail and updated the blog I continued the trip to San Francisco. I really enjoyed driving the last miles to San Francisco and listening to some of my favorite songs […]

On my way to San Francisco

I woke up at the seaside and took a quick shower at the campingplace. When I walked back to my car I saw a park ranger writing down the plates of all the parked cars. I waited till he was gone and then drove away without problems, but was a little worried if he would […]

Driving around in Hollywood

Before I left Vegas in the morning I took another look at it from the 11th floor of the parking lot. I realized again that I had found a very nice ‘hotel’ here in the middle of Las Vegas. It’s interesting how everything always looks different in the morning, also Vegas. It was more quiet […]

An Irish night in Las Vegas

If it was because I had I red wine with diner last night or that I was just very tired, I don’t know, but I slept better than I did in a long time. Completely rested I woke up just after sunset. I crossed the street to visit a nice breakfast-restaurant. They served superdelicous pancakes […]

A slower day

Although I planned to sleep in this morning I already woke up around sunrise. I think I’m starting to get in the rhytm. I actually really like this dayrithm, waking up earlier in the morning. I might even try to keep up with it when I’m back home in a little more than a month. […]

Sunrise at the Grand Canyon

This morning the alarm clock woke me up again about an hour before sunrise. For some kind of reason I couldn’t find the sleep last night, so I was happy to start a new day. It was still dark outside, but I knew that would soon change. When I opened my bedroom door, what is […]

Broke but happy at the Grand Canyon

About an hour before sunrise I woke up (I had set my alarm clock). Just before I started driving, another staffmember of the resort walked by and wished me a good journey. His colleague of last night had told about me and so he also knew that I stayed at the parking place. I think […]

Re-inspired

Last night I showed my photos to Pete (Jennifers dad) and while I was looking back at all my pictures it really felt like a dream. I realized again how much I’ve seen in the last couple of weeks. Some things I even almost forgot or it looked like it was years ago. It’s just […]

Weekend in the mountains

This weekend in the mountains was fun. At friday-afternoon we left for a two hours drive to the mountains. We arrived at a big resort with many wooden cabins, a swimmingpool, a hot tub, a game-hall with pool-tables, pingpong-tables and more like that. This weekend was organized by the church where Jennifers parents go to […]

Traveling makes you love your passions even more

Today was another relaxed day. We hang out at home and went to a big mall in the afternoon. I already visited a big mall with my friends Elma & Rick in Washington DC, but it was fun to see one again. It’s something you don’t have in the Netherlands in this size. Many restaurants […]
