Cecilia's skydiving video... :-)
Hej eventyrere.
Grand Canyon. Når vi skriver det navn, så ved de fleste godt
hvad vi snakker om. Grand Canyon er nok en af de mest verdenskendte
nationalparker der er heromme. Nogle vil uden at have set stedet straks dømme
det som for turistet og kliché agtigt. Sandheden er, Grand Canyon er turistet
og kliché agtigt. Det er heller ikke den største park, eller den med mest
dyreliv, men der er stadig en grund til den er så populær. Stedet er VANVITTIGT
imponerende! Naturen er bare så unik og man kunne sidde og glo på det samme
sted i dagevis. Grand Canyon er overvældende, billedskønt og idyllisk på trods
af alle turisterne. Vi havde desværre ikke tiden, men en eller anden dag skal
vi helt klart ned og udforske dybere i Grand Canyon, for så snart man bevæger
sig lidt indad, dør en del af turismen hen, hvilket vi jo prøvede lidt af sidst
vi var i USA. Desværre var vi begrænset på tid, så vi nøjedes med at køre rundt
og kigge fra forskellige viewpoints, hvilket virkelig var fantastisk. At se
hvordan de her klipper har formet sig gennem de sidste mange år og direkte
tydeligt kunne se den geologisk lagdeling. Man ser hvordan Colorado River snor
sig ned igennem Canyon og synt er bare helt unikt og som taget ud af et
eventyr. Er man heromme og har man aldrig set Grand Canyon så er det altså bare
et must see, ligesom nationalparkerne i USA generelt nu er. Efter at have taget
de smukke syn helt ind i sjælen satte vi kursen videre, turen var kommet til
Las Vegas.
Eneste lille problem med Las Vegas er, det er en fest! En
stor fest! En sjov fest! En vanvittig fed fest! Derfor har vi også været
påvirket af alkohol det meste af tiden vi opholdt os i Las Vegas, derfor har vi
så ikke fået lavet ret meget sightseeing eller taget nogen billeder(udover af
vores brandert). Lidt oplevede vi dog alligevel. Der var særligt to ting der
gjorde indtryk. Første vilde oplevelse var vores Skydiving tur. Vi stod tidligt
op og kørte ud til Las Vegas Skydiving hvor vi fik lidt sikkerhedsinstrukser,
skrev under på at det var ok hvis vi døde mv. derefter blev vi påklædt og fik
spændt en rumlignende dragt på, MEGET STRAMT, har man problemer med intim
berøring af fremmede eller meget meget meget fastspændte ting på alle steder af
kroppen, er det nok ikke skydiving man skal prøve. Vil man til gengæld have den
fedeste følelse af frisk luft, bobler i maven, grin og smil fra et øre til et
andet så er det skydiving man skal prøve. Man blev fulgt ombord på et lille fly
med sin instruktør, instruktøren spændte så en fast på ham hvor man simpelthen
sad på skødet af ham, da man skal være MEGET spændt sammen. Cecilia hoppede som
nr. 2 og Louise hoppede som den sidste. Det hele går meget hurtigt og man når
knap nok at blive bange, kun lige da det går op for en at instruktøren lige har
kastet sig ud med dig i over 4,5 km. højde, der tænker man lige et kort moment
at det faktisk var en pænt dårlig idé, men hurtigt bliver man klappet på skulderen,
det er tegnet for at man må fjerne sine arme fra sit bryst og man får så travlt
med at prøve og lave diverse håndtegn til kameraet med en fart på 190-225
km/t., det er faktisk PÆNT svært! Dette er samtidigt med at man skal prøve og
styre sit flagrende ansigtsfedt og savl fra at flyve op i hovedet på
instruktøren. Skydiving får ikke nogen til at se classy ud, men det er helt
utrolig morsomt. I Vegas boede vi på lukushotel Signature by MGM Grand, det var
til gengæld hamrende classy! Vi havde egen jacuzzi på badeværelset, køkken,
masser swimmingpools(m. gratis drinks), roomservice i høj klasse og
selvfølgelig også adgang til alle MGM Grands faciliteter, da Signature jo hører
til MGM bare det er i den ”spillefrie” luksus afdeling af hotellet. Vi elskede
det hotelværelse og nød hver eneste minut vi var der. Maden i Las Vegas
fortjener også et ord. Las Vegas har verdensberømte kokke til at servere alle
steder og priserne er ikke engang de værste, så det er virkelig stedet man kan
få afprøvet luksus. Generelt er luksus i Las Vegas billigt sammenlignet med
andre steder og det var virkelig en oplevelse. Bl.a. prøvede vi også at købe en
kjole i en af de dyre butikker og det var i sandhed cool at have så meget
opmærksomhed på sig og hjælp til at finde den helt rigtige(lidt for dyre)
kjole. Anden store oplevelse var at have VIP pladser til Chippendales aka.
mandestrip! DE var classy! Showet er altså ikke som man engang havde klamt og
voldsomt, det var yderst stuerent, kun lidt bare baller og MANGE bare maver og
så ellers god musik, flotte dansenumre, sang og nogle ubeskriveligt flotte
mænd! De var bare så så så så så så så flotte! Det aller bedste var, i
slutningen var der ”Flirt Bar” hvor man kunne komme hen og hilse på mændende og
få taget et billede med dem, lækkert! Vi opførte os classy næsten hele vejen
igennem showet, men stemmerne var dog lidt slidte dagen efter af at juble
sådan.
Generelt har de masser lækre øl og drinks i Vegas og det var nok især dem vi hyggede os med denne gang! Vi fik dog også gamblet og vundet, og tabt. Vi startede med første aften at vinde næsten 300 dollars fra bare 5 dollars, vi tabte så også dem alle igen, men hvad, vi havde en fest!
Har folk muligheden, så tag til Vegas. Der er noget ALLE kan lide, de har alt og de er gode til alt! At se farverne, festen, musikerne, kokkene, menneskerne osv. er så fed en oplevelse og bare helt vildt sjovt, vi havde et smil på læben hele vejen igennem for på hvert hjørne er der bare noget sjovt eller hyggeligt, det er et stort eventyrland, midt i ørkenen.

Hårdt ramte af tømmermænd måtte vi efter 5 dage forlade
Vegas og køre mod gode dejlige, flotte, varme, lækre Californien! Tiden var
kommet til Surfcamp. Vi skulle på surfcamp ved California Surf Adventures i
Encinitas. Vi blev tjekket ind på et rigtig hyggeligt lille hotel lige ved
stranden i denne DYBT charmerende lille by, Encinitas. Ved aftentid kom en af
de brødre der har surffirmaet og hentede os. Vi fik så en øl med ham, hans
kæreste og to andre surfere. Derefter så vi solnedgangen fra nok verdens bedste
udsigtsted og tog så ud og fik noget hammer lækkert aftensmad! Dette efterfulgt
af lidt øl på den lokale bar. Det viste sig at San Diego er et af de steder med
flest lokale bryggerier, de har over 100 lokale minibryggerier, dvs. denne by
bestod af varme, vandsport, fantastisk mad og god øl = H E A V E N!!!
De næste dage skulle vores instruktør, Nikki, forsøge at lære os det der med at surfe. Vi har kun prøvet det 1 time før da vi var i Australien, så det var et par meget uerfarne surfere han startede ud med. Sandheden er, vi har på ingen måde talent for at surfe. Men på trods af det, så formåede Nikki løbet af de 4 dage vi var der, faktisk at få os op at stå nogle gange hver dag. Vi brugt dog utrolig meget tid på at halvvejs drukne, padle rundt i vandet, vælte rundt og af og til også på at ligge og slikke sol på toppen af surfbrættet, indtil en bølge jordede os. Saltvand vælter ind i næste og mund når man surfer og vi kan afsløre en pige der surfer ikke er særlig classy. Surfing er ret udmattende og virkelig SVÆRT, men det er også bare helt vildt sjovt! Særlig var det sjovt fordi vi havde en kanon god instruktør med den skønneste personlighed, ligesom at de andre surfere var noget utrolig søde og venlige piger som bare var fantastiske at møde. Ud over at surfe var vi flere gange ud at spise alle sammen, vi var ude at kayakke/paddleboarde(oven på hajer!!!!) og andre super hyggelige oplevelser! Vores surfcamp med California Surf Adventures var den bedste ting vi har gjort og oplevet på vores Roadtrip og vi vil gerne give alle de absolut bedste anbefalinger vi kan til Nikki og Sander(California Surf Adventures), det var kanon sjovt, spændende og lærerigt, vi mangler bare at øve os noget mere så vi kan komme tilbage og vise hvor gode vi er blevet en dag! Til folk der måtte overveje at se Californien, prøv at surfe i Encinitas, i vil aldrig fortryde det et sekund. Hvis ikke man føler sig underholdt nok i Encinitas er det bare 30 min. kørsel til San Diego, men vi havde hvert fald rigeligt at lave i skønne skønne Encinitas. Vores sidste aften i Encinitas boede vi AirBNB ved Jonathan, hvilket bare var MEGA sjovt! Han var så venlig og kom med øl til os osv. så vi endte faktisk med at have en lille fest, kanon! J

Efter lidt morgensurfning i Encinitas måtte vi MEGET i mod
vores vilje altså af sted på vejen igen, turen skulle nu gå op af vestkysten
via. 101 og Hwy-1.
Vi elsker USA og vi elsker især Californien, det er et
eventyr her! Vi lærer også en masse ting. Vi har eks. lært: Folk der kører
Toyota Prius er farlige billister, HVER gang vi møder dem på motorvejen gør de
noget hasaderet, hold altid god afstand til dem! GPS’er vil med sikkerhed altid
være trofast i at være 100 % illoyal, den vil ALTID føre dig på den forkerte
vej når du mindst venter det! Tunsandwicher på Subway er bare en sikker vinder!
Tankstationen Loves er et helligt sted, de har alt og kan hjælpe med alt! Spicy
i USA betyder Spicy, ikke bare krydret mad! Pizza forekommer i kæmpe eller
ekstra kæmpe, ikke normal størrelse! Varmt vand er også drikkevand, det samme
er klorvand! Hastighedsgrænser er mere vejledende end faktisk gældende! Amerikanere
har umiddelbart ikke travlt, ikke hvor vi er i hvert fald! Snacks i bilen ER nødvendige for overlevelse,
det er ikke en joke, en rigtig snackpakke indeholder altid en form for chips,
hvilket desuden fungerer fint som aftensmad! At få plads på motorvejen i Los
Angeles er et spørgsmål om viljestyrke! Selleri m. hvidløgshummus er en gave
fra guderne, spis det! Vigtigste
egenskaber for et godt hotel er: Badekar + Gratis Wifi! Rent tøj er et ømt
punkt når man er på roadtrip gennem ørkenen! Luftmadrasser med luft i er
overvuderede, jorden er fin nok at sove på! Der er flere danskere end man tror
i USA, undgå pinlige situationer, lad være at sige mærkelige ting i
offentligheden selvom det er på dansk, du bliver busted i det! Undgå farverige
drinks, det er altid deres skyld! Amerikanere er meget stolte af deres
land(forståeligt)! Doughnuts m. creme i fra 7eleven smager altid godt, deres
frugtkopper smager aldrig godt! Wholefoods er the SHIT, sundt og mega
lækkert(og dyrt)!! Blinklys bruges ikke rigtigt, det lige meget, man kører
bare! Lastbiler kører hurtigere og er større end dig, det er bedre bare at
flytte sig hvis de vil forbi! Egern i nationalparkerne er tamme, og aggressive!
Sidst men ikke mindst, USA er vidunderligt, sjovt og smukt, vi elsker det heromme og der er ting man kunne kigge på til evig tid, vi skal helt sikkert tilbage og kigge noget mere en dag!
Sidst men ikke mindst, USA er vidunderligt, sjovt og smukt, vi elsker det heromme og der er ting man kunne kigge på til evig tid, vi skal helt sikkert tilbage og kigge noget mere en dag!
Vend snart tilbage, afslutningen på dette eventyr er lige om
hjørnet!
Kyyssss

Hi
adventures.
Grand Canyon. When we write that name, most people will know what we're talking about. Grand Canyon is probably one of the most famous national parks over here. Some will, without having seen the place, immediately judge is as a place crowded with tourists and as a cliché. The truth is, Grand Canyon is a cliché and crowded with tourists. It is not the biggest park or the park with the most wildlife, but there still is a reason why it's so popular. The place is insanely impressive! The nature is so unique and you could sit for hours and watch the same spot. Grand Canyon is overwhelming, beautiful and idyllic even when it's crowded with tourists. Unfortunately we didn't have the time, but someday we are definitely going down to explore the deeper Grand Canyon. As soon as you move down in the depths of Grand Canyon the tourists disappear a little, which we tried last time we visited Grand Canyon. This time we just took the car around and looked at different viewpoints, which were amazing. To see how these rocks have formed through many years and clearly see the geological layers is so impressive. You see how Colorado River leashes itself through the Canyon and the view is just so unique and as taken out of a fairytale. If you are in the area and have never seen the Grand Canyon it is simply a must see, just like the national parks in the US generally are. After enjoying the views we sat course towards a new destination - Las Vegas.

After enjoying the views we sat course towards a new destination - Las Vegas.
The only
problem with Vegas is, that it's a party! A big party! A great party! An
insanely awesome party! Which is the reason that we were under the influence of
alcohol most of the time we were in Vegas. That is also why we haven't done
much sightseeing or taken any pictures. But we got some experiences. There were
two experiences that especially made a big impressioin. Our first wild
experience were a Skydiving trip. We got up early in the morning and drove to
Las Vegas Skydiving. Here we got some safety instruction and signed a paper
that it would be ok if we died etc. After this we got dressed in a jumpsuit. If
you have trouble with intimacy by strangers or difficulty with being fixed
tight tandem, skydiving is probably not for you. But if you want an awesome
experience, lots of fresh air, laugh and smiles from one ear to the other you
have to try skydiving! The instructors follow you to a small airplane. Then the
instructor fixates you to him - you almost have to sit on his lap. Cecilia was
the second jumper and Louise was the last jumper. It all happens very fast and
you barely have the time to be scared. Only for a moment in the beginning of
the drop, when you realize the instructor just threw you out of an airplane 15.000
ft. from the ground and you think to yourself that this was a pretty bad idea.
But then the instructor taps your shoulder, which is the sign that you can now
move your arms away from your chest and then you get busy with throwing hand
signs at the camera while your falling towards the ground with a 120-140 mph!. It
is actually very difficult! And while you're throwing hand signs to the camera,
you also have to control your face fat and drool from hitting the instructor.
Skydiving does not make anybody look classy(with the whole face-flapping thing
going on), but it is just SO SO SO much fun!
In Vegas we stayed at a luxury hotel - Signature by MGM Grand which on the other hand turned out very classy! We had our own Jacuzzi in the bathroom, our own little kitchen, the hotel had lots of swimming pools (with free drinks), awesome room service and off course access to all of MGM Grand's facilities. The signature is a part of MGM it's just the part of the hotel with no casinos and a little more luxurious. We loved that hotel room and enjoyed every minute we were there. The food in Las Vegas was also AMAZING. Las Vegas has world renown chefs to serve all over and the prices are actually not too bad, so Vegas is really the place to try the luxury life if you feel like it. Generally luxury in Vegas is pretty cheap compared to other places and it really is an experience. We also tried buying a most beautiful dress in one of the more expensive shops and it was really awesome, and a great experience, to have that much attention and so much help to find the right (but a little too expensive) dress.
Another great experience was having VIP tickets for Chippendales! THEY were classy!! The show is amazing and filled with great looking men, all with amazing abs! They were so so so so so so so handsome! The best part were after the show, where they had a “flirt bar” where you could have your picture taken with them - uhm uhm uhm!. We behaved classy almost through the entire show, but our voices were absolutely not in the best shape the next morning because of all the.. Cheering!.
In Vegas there are lots of tasty beers and drinks and we for sure had a lot of them! We did find some time to gamble and we both won and lost. We started out with winning almost 300 dollars out of just 5 dollars. We lost all of them again, but whatever, who cares, we had a blast!
If people have the possibility, go to Vegas! There is something for everybody, they have everything and they are good at everything. Too see all the colors, the parties, the musicians, the chefs, the people etc. is just amazing. It is one big place of adventure in the middle of the dessert.

After 5
days we had to leave Las Vegas, unfortunately with BAD hangovers. We sat the
course to the beautiful, warm and awesome state of California! We were going on
Surf camp! We had booked surf camp with California Surf Adventures in
Encinitas. We checked in at this nice and cozy hotel near the beach in this
very charming town, Encinitas. At dinnertime one of the brothers who were one
of the founders of the surf company came and picked us up. We had a beer with
him, his girlfriend and two other surfers. After that we saw the sunset from an
AMAZING viewpoint and went out for a delicious dinner! After dinner we had some
beers at a local bar. We found out that San Diego is one of the places with the
most local microbreweries - they have more than a 100 of them. Which means,
that this city have: Warm weather, water sports, delicious food and amazing beers
= H E A V E N!!!(You know, what’s not to like!?)
For the
next couple of days, our wonderful instructor Nikki was trying to teach us how
to surf. We only tried it once before for like an hour in Australia, so he had
to teach some very inexperienced surfers. The truth is that we have absolute no
talent for surfing! But despite that, Nikki taught us well and during the 4
days we got up standing on the surfboard a couple of times each day. We did
however spend a lot of time halfway drowning, paddling around in the water,
getting knocked over by waves and working on our tan lying on our surfboards.
All the saltwater that comes through your mouth and nose does not make anyone
very classy. Surfing is exhausting and really hard, but it is SO much fun!
Especially because we had a GREAT instructor with the most amazing funny
personality and the other surfers were so kind and fantastic to meet. When we
weren't surfing we were having dinner with the others, tried some kayaking/paddle
boarding (right above sharks!!) and lots of other cozy stuff. Our surf camp
with California Surf Adventures was one of the best things we have experienced
on our road trip and we give our BEST recommendations to Sander and Nikki
(California Surf Adventures), we had so much fun, we were so excited and we
almost taught how to stand up on the board! We just need to practice some more
so we one day can go back and show how good surfers we’ve become!
To the
people who are considering surfing in California, you should definitely
consider surfing in Encinitas! You will not regret that, we promise!. If
Encinitas is not entertaining enough it's only a 30 minute drive away from San
Diego.
Our last night in Encinitas we stayed with a guy named Jonathan through AirBNB. We had so much fun here! He was very friendly and had local beers for us, so we actually ended up having a little party! :) What a blast!

After a last
morning surf in Encinitas we had to, very much against our good will, but we
had to continue on on our road trip. We now had to drive up the west coast via.
101 and Hwy 1.
We love the
US and especially California. We are also learning a lot of stuff. We have
learned fx that: people who drives a Toyota Prius is dangerous. Everytime we
meet them on the road, they do something unexpected - always keep your distance
to them! GPS's will for sure always be 100% faithful to be 100% disloyal. It
will always lead you to the wrong places when you least expect it! The tuna
sandwich at Subway are always a winner! The gas station Loves is a sacred place
-they have everything you'll ever need. Spicy in America means SPICY! Pizza
comes in large or extra large, not normal size. Warm water is also drinkable -
the same goes for chlorine water. Speed limits are more indicative than
actually limits. Americans are not busy, at least not the places we go(drive).
Snacks in the car are a necessity for surviving, not a joke! A real snack pack
always contains some kind of chips, which also works just fine for dinner!
Celery with garlic hummus is a gift sent from God, eat it! The most important
things for hotels must be a bathtub + free Wi-Fi, anything else doesn’t really
matter! Having clean clothes is not easy on a road trip through desert! Air
mattresses with actual air in them are overestimated - the ground makes a fine mattress!
There are more Danish people than you would think in America. Avoid
embarrassing situations by not saying any weird things on public places in Danish
- you will get busted! Avoid colorful drinks, it's always their fault!
Americans are very proud of their country (we understand that), try not to make
fun of it, they will probably get offended, irony is a Danish thing! Doughnuts
with crème from 7eleven are always tasty - their fruit cups are never tasty..
Wholefoods is the SHIT(like in AMAZING) -
Healthy and delicious (also expensive). Turn signals are not needed, it
doesn't matter you just drive. Trucks are sometimes faster and ALWAYS bigger
than you, it's best if you just move when they want to pass you on the freeway!
Squirrels in National Parks are tame, and aggressive!
Last but
not least USA is a wonderful, fun and beautiful country! We love it over here
and we are definitely going back someday to see even more amazing stuff! Check
in on our blog, there will soon be an ending on this adventure and of course
more pictures and videos!
Lots of kisses
Louise and Cecilia
