Those who know me know that I can't just sit around or do nothing, especially not for a whole day... So forget about the beach - let's go to the hills and hit the trail - in...

At the parking lot

We went on a boat trip out to sea today. It was quite interesting inside the ship as well, because the ship had a glass bottom and we also made a stop at a reef. This way, our...

Today was the day - the journey continued and took me straight to the Big Apple. As a final stop, we had a delicious breakfast at Eggspectation before heading almost directly to...

Burlington is a really beautiful small town. It is the largest city in Vermont, but still has only about 50,000 inhabitants. However, the many students from the University of...

It's going to LA with Hawaiian Airlines. The flight takes 5 hours with an A321 NEO. With the 2-hour time difference, it's already almost 10 p.m. Our motel looks like a prison.😄...

I had a somewhat restless night's sleep. I don't know what it was due to. Our ship arrived in Miami at five in the morning. From then on, it got pretty noisy at the dock. Since...

Finally warmth again. After a quick breakfast, we hit the road again. Across the Death Valley. A barren landscape, as you would expect from a desert. Cacti and withered bushes...

Okay, enough hanging around and vacationing yesterday and the day before. Today we wanted to make a few kilometers and see something. Whoever came up with the idea of choosing...

The journey is more difficult than expected. Sandy road for the last km. So the motorcycles stay parked for the evening. The people are nicer than expected. You get a gram of...

Exploring with bus and bicycle

Point Reyes is located north of San Francisco and is a national seashore. The highlight of it all is the tule elk, which are actually more like deer. But that doesn't matter. So...

It was time, Los Angeles or as Bene says all the time: "Los Ancheles" is right in front of us and so we decided to visit the city of angels. It's not easy to drive into the 2nd...
