We drove up to Portland through a massive pine forest that went on for miles. As a result of all those trees, there were quite a few lumber related vehicles on the road: Portland isn’t just another American city, but rather…
Minor Differences: Around the Home – Bathroom Update
While we ready the next video, a quick update to the original post on the differences in the bathroom:
Day 125-126: Counter Culture and the California Coast
We headed up north. It was meant to be a big driving day, but we got distracted. It was fun though. We stopped at the Solar Living Center, which was all very hippie. We spoke to some people selling mood…
Day 123-124: San Francisco, California
We met up with Cirsten mid-morning in Half Moon Bay. We met her very lovely niece, who had worked at Google, but quit to stay home with her adorable daughter. We learned that, as expected, Google are quite a demanding…
Day 122: Silicon Valley
First thing in the morning, we headed to Cupertino, home of Apple: Apple got to create and name its own road, Infinite Loop. We became very familiar with this loop as it is nearly impossible to park there. We got…
Day 119-121: Into California

Day 117-118: Salt Lake City, Utah
After the BYU, we continued north to Salt Lake City, which wasn’t far, as cities were clustered together, similar to the other Western states we’d been to. It appears that all of Utah’s other major urban areas are either above or below Salt…
Day 115-117: Provo, Utah & Brigham Young University
After a reasonable, if smoky breakfast in Nevada, we briefly crossed back into Arizona. It was quite an impressive little road cut right through the mountains. We entered Utah quite soon after that: We changed time zones again; we went…
Day 113-114: Las Vegas and Mesquite, Nevada
After finally leaving Arizona, we entered Nevada. We almost immediately went back into Arizona due to having a look at Hoover Dam, which is between the two states: We headed straight to Las Vegas as we had a room on…
Day 111-113: Phoenix, Arizona – Supermoon Eclipse
Since we have really liked Arizona and it is basically head to head with Florida in the current runnings of where we want to live, we stayed yet another day. We caught up on editing and did still more swimming, but also…
