Half of the year is gone… terrible to think about it 😀 … and the long holiday is over. But as always, there is more to come. First I will do a week long trip to a part of the world that I never have been to before: South America. To be more specific, I will…

What a night. Didn’t sleep much. Couldn’t put my feet anywhere without it hurting. I am feeling old. Getting out of bed hurts, limping to the bathroom. The only thing that helps are two Paracetamol and binding my shoes very tight. Then I can move at least (but not fast). To early for breakfast, but the…

Last night at this hotel. This time I can enjoy the all american breakfast. Waffle with syrup and bagel. Very healthy. I will move to a hotel close to the airport, because my flight leaves at 7:51 tomorrow and that is much easier than getting from the city to the airport early in the morning (plus…

Of course I sleep to long to get the breakfast. But it is nice to sleep in. The weather looks great. Blue sky, sun and when I go out the humidity is very acceptable. I used sunblock today – don’t want to end up like the local crayfish. I will try to take the 10:45…

First full day in Seattle. I slept a little bit longer, but the US like their terrible thin blankets and a pillow that is too small. That makes me miss my bed. 🙂 A quick shower and then to breakfast that is included in the hostel price. There are toast and bagels, with butter, jelly,…

Waking up early like every day. 5:30 is a little bit early. But I have time to lie in bed. Karen is picking me up for the airport at 10. I am thankful for the service and happy how the last days were. Totally worth the detour to Calgary. The city itself has not that…
