Travel Day 845 – Waikiki, Honolulu, Oahu, HAWAII Dear Mr. Obama, Thank you very much for having me on your island. It really is the perfect place for a little Travel Daycation, for relaxation and for recharging the batteries… It is not hard to see why you choose this island as your birth place and […]
Travel Day 844 – Vancouver to Honolulu, Oahu, HAWAII It was about time to move on and for an Active Travel Day again, especially because Vancouver did not have anything in store that could justify the amount of money I was spending to stay there… So this morning I was the first to have breakfast […]
Travel Day 843 – Vancouver, CANADA It was already my last day in Vancouver and since I had by now given up on this city, I rather decided to make the best use of this day while considering it a Travel Sunday… Ever since I had left New York, I had quite a big issue. […]
Travel Day 842 – Vancouver, CANADA It was a complete joke, but today was everything but a better day. While the first two days in Vancouver had at least some breaks in the rain with even a few minutes of sunshine in the afternoon, today was just a day of constant rain… After trying to wait […]
Travel Day 841 – Vancouver, CANADA It was obviously a good decision to not judge this city on the very first day, but on the other hand, sometimes the first impressions turn out to be correct and the longest lasting ones… Getting up early and seeing the rain outside did not really help me appreciate being […]
Travel Day 840 – Toronto to Vancouver, CANADA After spending three great weeks in Toronto, it was all of a sudden an Active Travel Day again and this time I was off to a new destination on the west coast of Canada, Vancouver… Initially I had looked into the option of taking a train called […]
Travel Day 815 – Zurich, SWITZERLAND As my second day in Switzerland began, I was really excited because there was actually a tiny little bit of snow on the ground. But unfortunately it was just enough to last for a few hours before it simply disappeared… So I used the day to explore a little […]
Travel Day 814 – Detmold to Zurich, SWITZERLAND As I had heard that Switzerland was supposed to be the best country in the world, I felt compelled to at least go on a little Side Trip and have a look while I was in the area, even if I only had time for a short […]
Travel Day 813 – Lisbon to Detmold, GERMANY This was unfortunately already the last day of our little side trip from Barcelona to Lisbon and it started as a pretty foggy one… As the day yesterday had been so great and we had walked around quite a bit, on this comparatively chilly morning we opted […]
Travel Day 812 – Belem, Lisbon, PORTUGAL Since this was not only our fist but also our only full day in Lisbon and since we still wanted to see everything in town, we needed to get ourselves a bit organized… First off we took a stroll down from Praca Dom Pedro to the nice old Praca do Comercio at […]
Travel Day 811 – Evora to Losbon, PORTUGAL The guest house we stayed at in Evora looked like an old mansion and when we woke up, we were greeted by the sun floating through the window and filling our room with a nice warm light… It was quite obvious that Evora was the perfect kind […]
Travel Day 810 – Seville to Evora, PORTUGAL Once again we would have liked to spend more time in Seville, but meanwhile we had to move on, only how best to get to Portugal was the big question of the day.. For some reason it had been impossible to find reliable information about bus connections between […]
Travel Day 809 – Granada to Seville, SPAIN Although Granada was absolutely a great place to stay for a while, unfortunately we were a little short on time and so the best idea seemed to be continuing towards Seville by bus… On a first glance Seville seemed to be a much bigger place than Granada with […]
