Eins: Philadelphia-Lexington, Kentucky... Ich bin momentan die Routenplanerin, hab die 40 Seiten Wegbeschreibung von Philadelphia nach San Francisco auf meinem Schoss... Meine Worte und Eindruecke des Tages: Mensch, die Ami maehen ja echt jedes Fleckchen Gruen... Wir haben heute versucht, soviel wie moeglich Strecke zu fahren und sind nun Alle im Holiday Inn eingecheckt, und das Angebot 'free wi fi' wurde von der Mac Delegation schon vollstenst in Anspruch genommen. Wie Four schon schrieb, wir haben hier einen super Hotel Deal bekommen, mit grossen Betten und Mundspuelung im Bad.... :)... Ach ja, der kleinen Dinge kann sich Eins erfreuen, wenn Zwei nach einer Diet Coke verlangt, Four sich den Pool herbeisehnt und Drue die Air condition gegen frische Luft eintauscht...
Nun denn, jetzt heisst es erst mal gute Nacht und morgen beginnt das Abenteuer...
...
Zwei: Everything important is been said, I guess. The trip started in the most
perfect way I ever could imagine. Everybody knows, I'm addicted to Diet
Coke. And you know what? However small a resting place is, don't worry! They
sell Diet Coke. Is it a dream?

Drü: Wie ich zu nummer 3 wurde in schweizerdeutsch Drü, kann ich kurz erklären. Für meinen road tripp namen musste ich keine waghalsige mutprobe ablegen, weder akrobatische übungen darbringen, einfach locker hallo zusammen ich bins, nett euch kennenzulernen und schwups you are nr. 3 we hope thats ok. for you.
Natürlich als esotante von der gruppe finde ich meine zahl voll edel und möchte nicht gleich nummer werden wo bleibt denn da die steigerung? .. . we give 3 a tray out.
Holliday inn
Erinnerungen an meine jugend als ich mit meinem vater und bruderherz emil in meiner teenager zeit in den usa waren, der klassiker auto mieten ect. da war holliday inn motel kette unser favorit, da es immer einen kleinen pool dabei hatte. Wir 3 liebten alle das wasser, es war so befreiend sich verspielt im nassen element zu winden und plantschen.
Heute nach etwa 12 jahren, sehe ich den film nochmals vor mir abspulen, nun aber in kentucky lexington, nicht mehr ich sondern andere kinder auf der durchreise sind total happy im chlorbad und die eltern schauen belustigt zu.
Ich vermisse meinen dad, thanks for all .. .... . .
love and peace Drü

Four: Renting the car was easy as pie. I thought for certain the other shoe would drop but alas, we got a 2011 silver Hyundai Sonata with 13,400 miles on it in a quite timely manner. How do they get cars to be 2011 when it's July 2010? Anyway, this particular vehicle features many comforting cubbies for one's personal effects. It also offers superb trunk space, rides smoothly, has satellite radio, quick pick-up, but no sun/moon roof. It handled the rain and sun equally well in my opinion and that's saying a lot because I drove the damn thing. We drove over 400 miles on 15 gallons of gas with the AC on. I dig it.
Ok, if you didn't plan ahead as I did and decide you want the cutest little styrofoam cooler in the whole wide world AND you are somewhere in rural WV, you simply must purchase such an item at a GoMart. This fine chain of roadside fueling establishments offers said non-recyclable cooler with it's logo proudly placed, in color, with matching plastic handles to better secure the lid. They must sell a lot of them because they were not covered in "I just sit on the shelf" dust like the toothpaste was.
The drive is wonderful and I am happy to finally visit another state in which I have never been. I'm sure Kentucky looks way cooler from small back roads but seriously, I have seen some amazing pieces of land, horses, and homes from the highway. Also, the clouds were exceptional for the latter part of our trip today. The West Virginia countryside is breathtaking... Oh and the little city of Charleston actually has tall buildings.
We left McKean Street at 10:51am and arrived in Lexington, KY 9:03pm. We stopped for fuel once and twice for resting and eating. We started with about 40 sandwiches and now have about 25. I am very proud of myself for NOT purchasing any meals today, though many evil fast food demons reared their ugly faces to tempt us. We brought our own liquor along but have yet to break the seals on those bottles.
Oh, before I start getting ready for bed, I must mention that we stopped at a welcome center in Kentucky and got a very useful coupon book for hotels. Get this deal: Holiday Inn Express, two double beds, breakfast and wifi included for 4 people.. $64 +tax. Say WHAT!?!? Yeah, ok, twist my arm... I'll take it! Ohhhhhh right.... and it's next door to a Hustler adult entertainment club.
