San Fransisco

San Fransisco is really impressive! The streets are so typical. It looks very European with the small cars and houses. On the photos you see the golden gate bridge and Alcatraz.

Universal Studios Hollywood

25 August, 2008 (18:47) | Travelling! | No comments

Yesterday we visited Universal Studios Hollywood. It was a great experience. The park has theme rides as Shrek 4D, Jurrasic parc (water), Terminator 2: 3D with live actors and Arnold Schwarzenegger on screen in new footage, The mummy (rollercoaster) and many more. The Simpons have a great new attraction that is a lot of fun. From the lines to th exit, everything is in the Simpsons style and you see all great characters.

Vegas by night

23 August, 2008 (21:21) | Travelling! | 2 comments

On our way from the Grand Canyon to Pasadena, we passed Vegas.
The city of Las Vegas is one beautiful sea of light when you drive on the mountain roads and see the city from a distance. Coming closer, the giant buildings of the strip stick out of this ocean. The skyline is expanding every year. Over 15 new skyscrapers are being build on and around the Las Vegas Boulevard.

Grand Canyon

23 August, 2008 (21:08) | Travelling! | No comments

Two days ago we visited the Grand Canyon’s North rim. The view is much different from the south rim. The north rim is only accessible through a large forest and the whole scene is absolutely astonishing.

We drove from St. George to the Canyon. The roads are empty here, it’s deserted land, just mountains and long desert roads.

This dam is huge! They are building a giant bridge over the dam and this place is already full with concrete and power lines.
