Day 6: Minneapolis (Gluek's)
19. Juni 2015 in den USA ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
The state of Minnesota is known for having a huge German (and Swedish) population. It's only logical that I try the local cuisine with Hofbräu-Weiss beer, pretzel and spaetzle (mac'n cheese), hehe. Enjoy!Weiterlesen

Day 7: Glenwood (Salt Cave, Glenwood)
20. Juni 2015 in den USA ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
Before I drove to Glenwood (Minnesota) today, I visited the therapeutic salt cave in Minneapolis. 45 minutes relaxing in a comfortable chair, breathing deeply with salty air, and listen to the sound of the sea. I didn't really feel an immediate effect afterwards though. But probably one have to visit this place regularly and more often to experience a change.Weiterlesen

First: Happy 30st birthday, Sis!!
Not really something exciting on today. Less than 2 hours drive. Ate something healthy for once. ;-) Now I'm looking forward to watch the World Cup games! :-)
The hotel is really fantastic! Quite simple but all new, built last August.Weiterlesen

Day 10: Rapid City (on the road)
23. Juni 2015 in den USA ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Today's stage led from Bismarck (North Dakota) to Rapid City (South Dakota), where I will stay for the next 2,5 days. My goal is to see Mount Rushmore as well as the former western town Deadwood, known from the Hollywood series.
Pictures are all from the roadtrip between Bismarck and Rapid City (with 6 hours the longest of my entire trip) and show endless streets and landscapes. And some kind of oil refinery.Weiterlesen

Day 12: Rapid City (Deadwood, part 1)
25. Juni 2015 in den USA ⋅ 🌧 16 °C
Famous not only by from the TV series with the same name, Deadwood is a must-see when being in South Dakota (the series is a must-see too, but be aware, it is quite violent). Having a beer in the "Gem", the famous saloon of bad guy Al Swearengen. Al was some kind of inofficial mayor of Deadwood, always trying to make a fortune...in an absolute ruthless way. Sometimes people who stood in his way were killed by him or his men and to erase every evidence, he paid his men to put them into the local hog house where the bodies "disappeared"...Weiterlesen

More pictures of Deadwood and its buildings and sites. Saloon 10 was the place where Wild Bill Hickok was shot in the back by an unsuccessful gambler named Jack McCall.

Day 13: Billings (Little Bighorn)
26. Juni 2015 in den USA ⋅ ☀️ 32 °C
Today I headed from Rapid City through the state of Wyoming to Billings, Montana. About one hour before I reached Billings I found (by chance) the war memorial of the "Battle of the Little Bighorn", a place where the native Americans under the command of Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse and Gall had one of their few big victories over the USA. There were surprisingly also 12 Swiss men fighting on the US side, an unusual high number, compared to other European countries. Of one the guides up there told me that most of the European men have been soldiers back home in Europe and were quite experienced in combat and the life of a soldier.
Details about the battle can be found here, in German: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlacht_am_Littl…Weiterlesen
