Around the US in 21 Days

Well...the idea started mounting when I kept bringing up my experiences in the States. And with the TV shows and so forth she get all the urge to travel. When a travel fare was held early 2005 we decided to see what was the deal. Much cheaper than the regular fare but rather a hefty amount to pay. Hey! what the heck. 


In April 21st we took a flight from Kuching to Kuala Lumpur and then connected to Los Angeles. We arrived after a long hours across the pacific where I get to smell LA...the United States, Land of the Free and the Braves and for most importantly, my old home for ten years. How I miss it now.

We rented a car for three weeks. Stayed one night in LA before heading the highway starting our journey down south. One night in San Diego we slowly headed down to El Paso and then Houston where we spent three nights at my sister's place. That was a memorable three days which we all dearly enjoyed so much. Well...we managed to eat at Yao Ming's restaurant though...pretty good. And gosh that guy is tall...I wonder how...you now what I mean ;)...


Sadly we have to go ahead with our plan and headed east to New Orleans. One third of the journey is gone and I am so glad to be able to make it there with my girlfriend sitting next to me most of the time. We went to Atlanta, my old home, where I spent a decade of my adult life. We later drove up north spending the night meeting George Bush Jr. ( I wish) and later to New York.

To cut the story short we drove across the country through Missouri, Colorado and Nevada where we spent the nights along the way. We spent three nights in Las Vegas and the last three night in Los Angeles before, reluctantly, heading back on a jet plane to Kuala Lumpur where we have to face the consequences...a living a real life.



Well...I did not get to meet George Bush but managed to see my old town...Sadly I did not meet my friends and hoping one day I will. Really great to have that trip and hope to have another one in the near future...and of course with our little one. This time we will not miss Six Flags or the Disney World...just for her. Cheers my friends. God Bless...
