3 Wochen "Rund um Chicago"

So my dears, and that's almost it with our great trip through the USA. Today was the last stage from South Bend to the outskirts of Chicago. We made an unplanned but gladly...

For me personally, today was a highlight on the agenda that surely not every tourist has on their list. As I have mentioned before, I love American universities, even though I...

September 18, 2016 Today, we have planned a two-part leg. First, we were supposed to go from the 'Shangri La' campground somewhere near Ohio to Cleveland. I had seen that the...

Yesterday we relocated because a friendly sheriff confirmed to us that we are not allowed to stay overnight on Goat Island. As planned, we moved to the nearby Walmart after our...

September 16, 2016 Thanks to our good preparation yesterday, we only had a good hour of driving time to Niagara Falls today. It's pretty cool to see all the signs pointing...

Heute haben wir 250 Meilen geschrubbt, um jetzt nur noch einen Katzensprung von Buffalo entfernt zu sein. Unterwegs haben wir in Syracuse, New York Stop gemacht, um eine sehr...

September 14, 2016 Today was basically a transfer stage, as they would say in the Tour de France. We are now roughly heading towards Niagara Falls and our today's stop should be...

Today we got up early again. On our RV site Liberty Harbor with a view of the Statue of Liberty (from the back) there was a very pleasant calm, astonishing when you consider that...

Okay, New York is a bit of a lie, actually our destination today was New Jersey, the other side of the Hudson River. But the Big Apple always sounds better. Learned from BILD, the...

Phew, it was hot again last night. And it's probably already 25°C this morning too. Breakfast in the motorhome and then off to the city of Philadelphia. Along the Delaware River,...

Comfortably after getting up, we left our KOA Campground Cherry Hill in College Park. It was supposed to be a travel day. We passed Baltimore. Secretly, I had the plan to maybe...

Unbelievable what this city has to offer. I think D.C. is completely rightfully the capital of this overwhelming country. We took a bus and metro to the city to Penn Quarter....

And once again we have conquered a state, including a Starbucks cup. A lot of forest, water and nature lie behind us. We have left behind the Chesapeake Bay and are now not far...

Another night on a Walmart well survived. You won't believe it, but I know a police officer here in Zebulon and he promised us personal police protection. Well, playing computer...

We only have a little internet today, so here's a brief update. We drove 300 miles and are very proud to have arrived in Raleigh, Rostock's sister city...

We conquered perhaps the most famous mile in the States this morning. In Chattanooga, there is the so-called Lookout Mountain Incline Railway, which overcomes an 80-degree slope...

Today we said goodbye to our beautiful campground and continued south. But before that, we made a stop at the Grand Ole Opry, about 2 miles from our campsite. It is a concert hall...

A day full of music is behind us and I have to tell you, I'm very surprised by Nashville. Of course, I knew that live music is played on every corner and every (not only American)...

Our first night in the R.V. was very pleasant without any major disturbances. Only at five a young lad parked right next to us with booming bass and rap music.. But well, I turned...

Hello, greetings from the Walmart parking lot in Indianapolis... The day started off relaxed in Chicago with breakfast at Burrito Beach. Then we took a taxi to the rental station...

Dad's birthday, start with a nice breakfast - Check! Delicious at the hotel opposite with 20% OFF from Michelle .. I'm in everybody smile mode again. The friendliness of the...

Yes, that was the first day again. We arrived here in Chicago in the afternoon, we were on the road for a total of 27 hours from Rostock, and thanks to the time difference, we had...

Well, that was quite an experience. The Zurich Airport presented itself to us from its most beautiful side after a picturesque flight of 60 minutes. The small Alpine...

That's a good start... We arrive at Tegel Airport at 12 degrees and first have a little :-) at 6:50 am we take Swiss Air to Zurich!

Nur noch wenige Stunden, dann geht es los. Dabei gilt es auch für mich, meine im Kopf existierende aber nie aufgeschriebene (...warum eigentlich nicht) Checkliste abzuarbeiten,...

www.tripadvisor.de ist in diesen Tagen wohl die von mir meistgeklickte Seite... Das ist sehr hilfreich wenn man sich Gedanken darüber macht auf der...

Heute ging es zurück in die Heimat, von Hessen nach Rostock, das ganze bei gut 35°C phasenweise. So gefällt mir das. Und ab sofort heißt es Urlaub für ne ziemlich lange Zeit....

Noch 10 Tage dann sind wir am Ziel unserer diesjährigen Urlaubsträume angelangt. Bis dahin heißt es für mich noch eine Woche arbeiten. Morgen...

Das schönste ist es doch, wenn man dem Wetterbericht vertrauen darf. Ab heute sollte...

This is not yet America, but the skyline of Frankfurt am Main, my current 'home' and it is not only 18 days until we are in Chicago, no, 18°C has also been the highest temperature...
