Day 7
On the road again
April 29, 2023 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
Frisch gestärkt mit einer Portion Waffeln 🧇 legen wir die Strecke von Perrysburg nach Chicago zurück. Auf dem Weg halten wir in einem Cowboyladen. Alles voll mit Cowboy-Boots und Hüten. An den Raststätten sind wir wieder überrascht von den riesigen Bechern und Portionen, die man sich dort kaufen kann. Wir mixen und einen frischen Smoothie und setzen die Fahrt durch Ohio und Indiana fort, wo anscheinend viele Amish People wohnen. In ganz Amerika gibt es ca. 300.000 die dem modernen Leben abgesagt haben und auf Elektrizität und sonstige Annehmlichkeiten verzichten. Auf den Straßen bewegen sie sich mit ihren Kutschen - „Wägglis“ genannt fort. Teilweise sind die Kutschen sogar mit Propangas beheizt oder mit Trinkhaltern ausgestattet und es gibt sogar eigene Straßenschilder. In Chicago - Illinois angekommen, schleppen wir unser Gepäck zur Union Station von wo unser Amtrak Zug losfährt. Leider hat er 2h Verspätung.Read more

Day 1
Finally we're on the road...
May 1, 2015 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
Today is our first day of the next adventure! We have had a rocky start today. We have had issues with the Cherokee and required new tires. This week has been really stressful so I need a vacation. However, we are ready to go. We load everything and everyone in to the motorhome and off we go. We are heading west towards Sarnia to take the Blue Water Bridge over to the United States. The weather is nice and sunny, the traffic is light. Just the way we like it.

We get to the border and get pulled over for inspection. This is the first time we have had this. My own fault really, I usually check the border patrol website for admissible foods and I didn’t. We had the dreaded chicken and eggs on board. There currently is a ban due to the H1N1 virus. The border people are really very nice and it doesn’t take too long to get on the road again.

Through Michigan and into Ohio for the night. We are staying in Perrysburg, Ohio tonight. We arrive very late, around 9:30 pm and we are both pretty tired. We are staying at a KOA (Kampgrounds of America). These are very nice campgrounds to stay at. They have everything you need and more. These campgrounds are great for one night or a week and for everyone from seniors to families. Many of them have pools, kid’s playgrounds, dog walking areas and the friendliest staff you ever want to meet. I like them because you can just phone ahead and reserve your spot and it is there when you arrive. Even if you don’t call ahead, they sometimes have spots available for drive in people.

So, we are here for one night. We open up the tip outs and set up in about 5 minutes. I have made a chili for dinner and that doesn’t take long to heat up either. We head off to bed around midnight. The boys are a little restless and they sleep with us tonight. (At least they got some sleep!)

The next morning we take the cats out for their walk. We are still fairly far north so the trees don’t have their leaves yet. It was cold last night so we had to turn on the heat. We have some breakfast and then head out.Read more

Day 163
60,000-Mile Service
August 29, 2021 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
It was strange going 500 miles without hitting a dealership. I got the first of only two yesterday afternoon in Sandusky, OH, then the second in Toledo next door to my hotel. I checked in at 18:00, 11.5 hours and 700 miles from Lake Placid 😁. After DoorDash hummus, fattoush, and chicken shawarma, I turned on a movie and promptly fell asleep 🤣.

This morning I got to sleep in but was awake before 07:00 anyway. Now I'm waiting for the dealership to finish up Willie's 60,000-mile service so we can head to Battle Creek, Michigan, for the Lake Michigan Touring Rally 😁. I'm lying on the floor because the state's COVID restrictions made the dealership remove their waiting area 😠.

So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

Day 162 mileage: 696.1 (total 43492.3)

P.S.: Yes, that is another waiting customer on the floor by the vending machines 🤣☹️.Read more
