Day 28 (1): Today I had a lot of impressions so I split it.
When I woke up I had a phone call with Dan one of my travel buddies in 2015. He's actually also in the USA and gonna fly back one day earlier from LA as well. Maybe he joins me or I join him for a while. Would be great!
My first stop was Barstow. I drove the first part of the historic Route 66 to get there. The landscape beside the roadRead more
Guten Morgen Barstow,
Geschlafen wie ein Baby. Nun machen wir uns auf den Weg Richtung Los Angeles: raus aus den Temperaturen um die 50 Grad - rein in die Stadt der Engel und dann auf den Highway 1 Richtung Norden.
Headed to our next hotel and the roads were awesome.
Practically empty, surrounded by desert, while listening to some Rascal Flats and Taylor Swift with the sunset going on. It was also a very good sunset, haven't seen one that good in a while.
Today was a good day.
Our first stop of the tour was lunch here at Barstow Station, lots of food options, we chose to have our first American Hotdog - a chilli dog with cheese

On the bright side, we are on our way to Vegas baby! And getting our kicks (but not from the weak American chilli)Read more
Long trip across the Desert taking in Hackberry, Kingman, Oatman and finishing at the Route 66 Motel in Barstow.
We started out the day by doing a walking tour of the last remaining "Main Street" on the route. The town commissioned a series of murals highlighting the history of the area.
We took a short side trip to see the "Old Woman Meteorite", the second largest meteorite in the US. We also got to see their resident animals, including a desert tortoise and a toad.
Moin, Moin,
der Tag heute ging früh los. Die Etappe war heute von Las Vegas NV nach Barstow CA. Die Route führte durch den Mojave-Nationalpark und war ziemlich anspruchsvoll. Zwei Anstiege mit einmal 20 Kilometern länge und einmal 30 Kilometern länge. Das gute heute war, dass es auf der anderen Seite wieder hinunter ging. Zwar auf schlechtem Straßenbelag und nicht ganz so lange, aber beiRead more
