First we got tickets for the next days whale watching trips. In the office they played a video where a humpback whale swam right beside the boat and played with the tourists. Ok – I know. You don’t expect that but at least you hope to see something close.

Of course we bought some candies too. It’s safe to say that America did not invent sweets. They also did not invent the car but the developed it to a level where you can call art. I’m talking about US cars of the 50s and even more so of the 60s. Today most US cars are as boring as European or Japanese cars with one exception to the rule: trucks! I really like them. If I would life here I would drive a truck as pointless as this kind of car might be today I like it.

Maybe the image below is not the best example because there are far better looking trucks but the size and height of this vehicle is stunning. You don’t have to worry about pedestrian safety here. The Dogde sign will hit you straight on your forehead and knock you down. I can imagine that it is best to avoid all kind of bends when driving too.
