I have had three wonderful weeks in California with my
sister and her husband, and I can’t forget the baby in the family, their dog
Stella!!!
Arriving on US soil after spending some time in the UK
showed up the great differences between the two countries. California is so dry with no rain for many
months, and everything is big! Houses,
roads, cars, land area, shopping centres, meal portions …. nothing is done on a
small scale, and to travel from A to B involves many miles and lots of
time! I have had fun road tripping
around California with my sister and seeing the many different landscapes and
areas, with national parks, lakes, coastal areas, wine country, plains, hill
country, small towns and the city of San Francisco. And I even got the aerial views flying in my
brother-in-law’s plane where everything looks so different. Some really amazing contrasts and has been
great sharing it with family.
