Well. At some point I had to break the Southern Hemisphere tradition and stick to the north, and thus travelling in June-Augustish.
And at some point I had to break the Eastern Hemisphere tradition and head west. And thus, USA/CAN, here I come!
San Francisco – Hello Saferide
Airplane Food/Airplane Fast Food – Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine
America – Simon & Garfunkel
Leaving on A Jet Plane – John Denver
Californication – Red Hot Chili Peppers
America – Silent Parliament
Minutes to Midnight – Midnight Oil
Those are just a few of the songs that spring to mind. Now I wish a happy Midsummer’s eve to all those I leave behind.
The countdown has started. Two weeks to go, six weeks to travel. And so preparations should be made. Which I’ve made.
A place to stay in San Fran is now booked. And in New York. And again in New York.
The big stuff’s already taken care of: Time off work, flight tickets, transportation across the USA and the Canada. Also Alcatraz.
America, baby!
