This will be a short post because there's not much to say about Palm Springs except one thing: IT WAS HOT. Even hotter than Death Valley. So we spent the day in the pool :D What...

On our trip through the USA, of course the Grand Canyon couldn't be missed. We were completely fascinated by its size. In the evening, we watched the sunset... an incredibly...

The second National Park today was Zion National Park. At first, we didn't expect the canyon to be so huge and diverse. That's why we didn't have as much time as we needed to...

Wir haben uns heute 2 National Parks angeschaut. Der erste war der Bryce Canyon. Wir haben hier eine kleine Wanderung durch das Tal gemacht. Einfach unglaublich schöne farbige...

Today on the way to Bryce Canyon, we quickly stopped by the Hoover Dam. An impressive construction. We would have liked to stay there longer, but it was simply too hot. We...

What can we say about Las Vegas?! It's warm, it's big, it's crazy. In the 'desert' is a city with gigantic hotel complexes that have also partly recreated whole cities (of...

Today we went on a tour to Alcatraz. It was very windy and also oppressive there. We are glad we don't have to stay there. We took an audio tour of the prison, where...

Our jeans may not be torn, but today we explored San Francisco.... Since our hotel only serves breakfast until 9 am, we were out very early. Thanks to the hop-on hop-off buses,...

Today we visited the Monterey Aquarium. It has a huge exhibition area with lots of aquariums. Sea Life in Oberhausen is tiny in comparison. After that, we drove the 17 Mile...

In California, there is actually a castle and we couldn't miss it. A pretty wealthy man fulfilled his dream of European art history here. He built a huge castle from a...

Today we had our big Hollywood / Los Angeles tour. First we were in the Warner Bros Studios on the set of some movies / series, such as The Big Bang Theory, Friends, Pretty...
