Here we go again .... After we came to visit Joerg yes a few weeks ago from LA, we decided that it was now time to make us well on the way to LA and unsafe. In order to preserve our still somewhat strained budgets, we decided to fly us to do with the car on the road instead. While this would mean 6 hours drive as opposed to not even one-hour flight, but it was $ 200 per person cheaper if you consider that a gallon of gas here right now 2:29 Dollars. Yes, to fill a tank for 30 dollars, I can imagine that its in Germany dreams;)
So we had prior to deposit our Wohnungsschluessel in Malte's restaurant on Monday night, so that Mirjana and her husband, Joerg pick him up there could, because the two would then hats in that time our apartment, until we were on Wednesday evening, back from LA was. (Well, they did not tend really, but we are naturally delighted to host and when you get it paid even bedding and linen, and every morning with breakfast received directly after getting up, then you're probably much better host, THANK you again for two!)
How To can see from previous rows, so we are not moved to LA and have spent time with the two in San Francisco, then, oh miracle, Ulis car was again on the mind ... and on the way home from work before we wanted to make on the way ...) So Plan A was the run and we had to set about a plan B. Plan B was: car in the garage, luckily we had already spoken to the week before the workshop, so were prepared to take the car to reception, it would go as fast course, so we have probably all not expected. Because we also had to be somewhat mobile, especially after we told the workshop that it was probably just a longer stay the car would act there, so had to hire a car to be taken. We decided for a very favorable category, and when I arrived at the car rental with Mirjana, to pick up the car, it can of course have located only in our female, stunning, German charm that nice, Mexican workers are asked, you may want to a Ford Mustang have? After having clarified that this would be a free upgrade, we proposed course immediately, and if it had my way, I would have the car no longer made and the car could've stagnate in the workshop ....
All right, so after we had the car and knew that we would not go to LA, did we (as a surprise) only something for our well-being and food were Mexican. It then also the plans were forged for the next days.
On Tuesday (the day of the presidential election!) Drove us therefore in the city and after we Mirjana and Joerg had to Fishermans found Wharf again, we took the Cable Car in Market Street, the shopping street with all shops, which the heart desires. First, we needed to adidas because the boys wanted to look for shoes and of course very Surprisingly, Malte which was of course promptly. Now, a question that can really answer almost every one who painted a bit better known: What color are your shoes?
Right, it was not expected to almost different, they are white!
good, so we moved from shop to shop, Uli also eventually bought some new shoes, but not for pleasure, but for the work.
After we were all a little tired, we decided to drive back to the Cable Car to our cars and the evening at Applebee's, to spend a steak house. Fortunately, there are of course in any restaurant more than a TV, so we were able to follow the choice when eating. And then came the incredible moment when Obama won the election. I do not know if the guests have noticed at all around us, that he has won, let alone that someone has won at all, because there was no Gefuehlsregung to see around us. Thus we saw then in the restaurant the talk of McCain, followed by the victory speech of Obama, before we made our way to just get rid angefutterten calories while bowling.
made on Wednesday morning we set off into town to go to Alcatraz. To this end, one must know that we have the tickets in advance via Internet had bought, for to go to Alcatraz, one should do well to plan in advance. The weather was great, so we could enjoy the view from the ferry to Alcatraz and as well the view of San Francisco, once we have turned to the other side. After a short drive of 12 minutes, we were then already arrived. First we went to one of the main building to give us a short film about to look at the history of Alcatraz, because ultimately, the island throughout its history, both a fort to protect the bay, as filled, even after the Gefaengniszeit by Indians, who lost to her country fought.
After the movie we followed the signs to the prisoners block where we were given an audio tour. This 45-minute tour was really interesting. We heard a lot about riots, escape attempts, and Al Capone. After the tour was over, we still walked around the island, enjoyed the view and explored the remote building. Actually we had originally decided to spend a night on Alcatraz, but unfortunately we were denied (Rejected, too cute !!!!!) After 3.5 hours we went to walk back to the mainland and discussed what we could do with the rest of the day without us with another sensory overload suspension. So we decided to drive about 45 minutes from Napa and us a little with her lying there, "Premium Outlet 'deal. We went from Thommy Hilfiger, of Levis, Benetton, Calvin Klein, Bose, etc. Logically, everything was really cheap, so we did not get around it, to buy a few things. On our late way home we went to the video store or to us, inspired by our day trip to rent "The Rock". We then looked pleasurably with pizza and beer before we again fell into bed tired.
