Where were we?
01.10.-03.10. We slept in Vancouver
cheesy B & B with nothing but old people, Pia wants to learn such a great evening now but flamenco. Famous Fish and Chips on Granville Iceland and Stadtspaziergaenge! Pia's Afraid of the border, Alexaki sees the left. We are well prepared and tell the border guards souveraen almost anything, then we shall be Open country.
03.10.-06.10. Seattle
Luckily there to eat in the hostel, so we can spend the money for beer afterwards, in a bar where bands play for free fat old good music. A photo in front of the "Gum Wall", where everyone's chewed gum hinklebt must also be before we fall into bed with Big Weltraumbettwaesche. The market is impressive and there are apples that taste like Dr. Pepper (Note: eye-catching taste many things smell / by Dr. Pepper, but about it another time), so we prefer to buy Mario-berry jam, which we believe it or not 1.5 months uncooled help out. The apple was supposed to taste like grape "Grapple" (yes, seriously)

Seattle 06.10.-07.10.
We make our way to San Francisco and after the visit of Jimi Hendrix '(+ family) grave we sleep in the parking lot of a mall (or rather, a shopping town) in the car. Sounds rather exciting as that, and Pia gackt bissl in again, while Alex does the left. Sleeping is OK and the next day goes on the road trip, the music is good, the bad diet, the weather is better.
The grave of Hendrix 07.10.-08.10.
We sleep in the car again and drive a lot.
08:10 to 09:10.
After two days and two nights only in the car decided at the end of the third day, to spend the night in a motel in Crescent City. The price is very very OK (59 $), and there is even something like "breakfast". Before we continue, a man comes into the "lobby", which turns with a stern expression to the small Asian receptionist: "There is no
bible in the room". She looks confused and grateful, he nods, we move on.

Motel Crescent City 09.10.-10.10.
We are now on the 101 and not ride on the Interstate 5th We come to California and find the most beautiful beach for a break, where Alex holds the sun. Driving through the gigantic redwoods, "as it is already dark. After each curve shows a new, breastfeeding and powerful, with incredible straight trunk rises one meter in length and diameter in the black sky. That is because asphalt, sheared off the roots are not at all, and they take the space they need. From the trees that lined the street directly and too wide, are part to make the stem to cut away the cars. Who wins as well? We stay in a Safeway parking lot and come the next day to evening in San Francisco. who

This Amis ... 10.10.-11.10.
In San Francisco you can not park, so we parked the car in Sausalito, a suburb of nifty SF, and take the bus to downtown. There we meet in a small Mexican takeaway Eric, his friends and roommates: Eric, we had contacted about couchsurfing.org, and after we had called off the couch, an innocent beer joint and the night was decided in the car. From a beer and several have been missed the last bus, so we spaetnachts then "secretly" but spent the night with Eric.
Rents in San Francisco are so expensive that it is normal for a room to share with one or two other people. So it is that Eric and his room-roommate share a single bed (by his happiness knew nothing beforehand of course) and Pia and Alex sleep together in Eric's single bed. As with the rest of the roommates agreed and stop the free parking in Sausalito at eight in the morning, we sitzenn but after about 3 hours and again in the first bus there. What a lucky, because we would have otherwise never get this incredible views of SF's skyline:
11.10.-12.10.
After a bit more sleep in the car that was first on a free P & R off and park before we return once more on the way to downtown. Then Eric with a "Full House"-Park, which is much smaller than he looks on TV (and shame that we do not know the real name). What we have actually done otherwise? We sleep today at Michael, Eric's best friend.
12.10.-13.10.
We will meet again with Eric, making the evening the "Jazz District" uncertain. Since Alexaki lands on the stage at the jam, getting the CD with the bass player who wants namely as all necessarily play Porgy.
13.10.-16.10. Fitzgerald
That's now with couch surfing, and we take a double room at the Fitzgerald. Pia feels very nice and we are sick for two days at the hotel. Thank god there as a TV. Alexaki takes care of the ailing like a baby. Since you will be better soon!
16.10.-17.10.
Pia're doing better, on the road again. On the way to LA and Southern California, it is warmer, somehow. Late evening we have in any small town by the sea in front of a nightclub, and before going to sleep (in the car before the night club) walk.
17.10.-18.10.
We come in the evening in LA, but the hostel we booked until tomorrow. We sleep in the car in front of the hostel.
18:10 to 19:10.
We move on to the hostel, and while our room is made ready, we go buy ingredients for a chili con carne. The Chili tastes good and then we drive around with the car, because that is the best way to see the city.
San Francisco, 6am 
San Francisco 
... hehe. 
Alex is the best. 19.10.-20.10.
Since the beginning of the trip was Pia's plan to WWOOF (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms: Use the "farm" for room and board) and had a special "Farm" in mind: the CRIChouse. Normally you have to apply months in advance, or at least weeks, and since we had not done it, has since Pia no longer thought of it. Alex has organized but then somehow, and then was rescheduled and went on the road. Sorry, but Pia the place it wrong in the head and then we go first to San Luis Obispo (which is back towards San Francisco) to on it get then that desired place Sebastapol means and again five hours further north, ie back towards SF content. As Pia was pissed because we had already spent a night in a car in San Luis Obispo and no longer wanted to drive the car and also in the "wrong" direction. But we are still went there.
