Departure...

Version Française en dessous...

Hello,

That's the great departure day... Luggages ready, camera ready to shoot, and excitation as the highest...

We have our flight scheduled at 7pm at Newark Airport (NJ) to go to San Francisco Airport (CA). It will be a long day before we reach our hotel in Fisherman's Wharf. We may be a little surprised by the temperature there (15°C...).

Midnight, arrival at the hotel in a chilled and cloudy night (13°C)... But everything is going as scheduled... Vacations can start!!! The Toyota Camry that we are renting has 9177 miles... It should have 12500ish in 2 weeks :). Now we will sleep as it is 3.30am for us in NJ time...

C'est le jour du grand départ... Les bagages sont prêts, l'appareil photo prêt à shooter, and l'excitation est à son plus haut.

Notre vol est planifié à 19h depuis l'aéroport de Newark dans le New Jersey, pour atterrir à San Francisco en Californie. Ce jour sera long avant d'atteindre notre hotel sur Fisherman's Wharf. On risque être surpris par la différence de température (15°C annoncé).

Nous sommes arrivé à minuit dans une nuit nuageuse et froide (13°C)... Mais tout roule sur des roulettes. Les vacances peuvent commencer. La voiture louée est une Toyota Camry avec 9177 miles au compteur. Elle devrait avoir 12500 environ dans 2 semaines. Maintenant, nous allons nous coucher car il est 3h30 du matin au temps du NJ. 

Cheers

Stéph and JP

Hi guys,
I am starting my trip's planning for the far west...
If you think that I am crazy do not hesitate to tell me... I am note sure if my trip makes sense in terms of mileage...

Hi Guys,
I have completed my trip... 3000 miles scheduled... That looks a lot, but I do not think that it is crazy.
Let me know if you enjoy my trip.
