It is now time for us to leave main land America where we have spent almost 2 years. First 1.5 years in Phoenix and then 5 months on the road in the States and Canada. We are looking forward to our “vacation in the vacation” on Hawaii before going on to New Zealand for new adventures. It feels good to be on our way, the past weeks has been a bit just waiting to go on. We have spent time selling the car and giving things away that does not fit in our bags. This means leaving has been on our minds for a long time.
Our stay in the USA and Canada was the first part of our trip and the second part, New Zealand, is coming closer. We will be traveling with a different car, still one you can sleep in which is necessary for the budget to work, in a new country. We need to find out where it is ok to spend the night, where to shop and what food is good. It has been easy in America since, after living in Phoenix, we were very familiar with everything and knew what to look for and expect. We are looking forward to everything being new and exciting.
This was the last place we visited before returning the rental car. It is the boardwalk at Redondo Beach, LA. A very nice place I had never heard of before but really worth visiting. A nice pier with restaurants and shops and less touristy than Santa Monica.
Hugs! And have a great time in Hawaii, I´m NOT THE LEAST envious (it´s minus 2.3 degrees today).
