Kamloops - San Fran

Our first step on our road trip to Mexico was the trip from Kamloops, BC, CAN to San Francisco, CA, USA. It was an awesome ride along the coastline on the highway 101. It rained a lot, but the views along the whole coast were anyway breathtaking! We saw everything from long lonely beaches to the huge redwood trees along the US westcoast, with our costumized Ford Escord 97 Stationwagon ;) The first night in San Francisco we stayed at a hostel near the Golden Gate Brigde in a beautiful nature park. The next morning we met Kilian, which just arrived for his 5 weeks ESL program in San Fran. We were doing San Francisco the real touristic way, Golden Gate, Cable cars, Fishermans Warf, Cafe Trieste (where the godfather movies were written), Gay/China/Italy/Hippie-town and Alcatraz. For the weekend we could stay at the host family of Kilian - the Alberts. They live in a very cool and typical townhouse in central San Francisco. The family and their hospitality was amazing and we stayd for two nights. Thanks a lot!! On saturday evening we did Fan Fran by Night and checked out a nice little Italian restaurant, a cool lounge and finaly we were invited to a illegal after hour party, but we went home instead. On monday morning the trip to Mexico continues... Next destnation LA over Highway 1 with the tent in the trunk.

Cheers and bye San Francisco /Roy and Jakob

Üsi 1. Etappe ufem Wäg nach Mexico hetnis vo Kamloops ufem Highway 101 nach San Francisco bracht. Sisch dr absolut Wahn gsi, ar Küste nah abedsfahre. S het viel grägnet, aber d Landschaft und d Ussichte si trotzdäm atemberaubend gsi. Mir hei vo länge einsame Stränd bis zude riesige Red Wood Trees alles gse, wos vo derä sehr abwächsligsriche Fahrt dsgseh git. Einisch in San Fran acho, heimer die 1. Nacht imne Hostle übernachtet. Am nächste Morge heimer när dr Kilu troffe, wo ou grad in San Fran isch acho fürnes 5-wüchigs ESL Programm. Mir hei san Fran ire ziemlch touristische Art und Wies lehrä kennä. Golden Gate, Cable cars, Fishermans Warf, Cafe Trieste (sisch dört wo the godfather isch gschribe worde), Gay/China/Italy/Hippie-town und Alcatraz. Für ds Wuchenend heimer när bider Gastfamilie vom Kilu unterschlupf gfunde. Die wohne imne hammermässige traditionelle San Fran Downtown hus. D Familie und iri Gaschtfründschaft si dr Hammer gsi.
