Au pair adventures

Som ni kanske vet så åker jag och Freija dessa dagar med en organisation kallad: Au pair adventures. Vi kommer att åka runt här i Californien i 8 dagar i en min van. Här kommer infon vi själva har fått:
 

Day 1: 8:00am Tour starts in the lobby of our Los Angeles Hostel. After making introductions with your tour guide and fellow travelers, you will start your adventure by visiting the most famous highlights of LA, including Hollywood, Hollywood walk of stars, Grauman's Chinese Theater, Kodak Theater, Sunset Blvd, Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive and Venice Beach. After lunch we head out of the city and East towards the Colorado River where we camp in Arizona. Your guide will take the time tonight at camp to cover everything you need to know about The Grand Canyon so you will go to bed with a good idea of how you want to spend your time once you arrive at the Canyon tomorrow.

*Camping night

Day2: Leaving the river behind, we hit the road and start our journey to canyon country. We will make an early start to maximize our time, arriving at Grand Canyon National Park for lunch. Known as one of the seven natural wonders of the world, this amazing canyon will not disappoint. You will have the whole afternoon to explore the Canyon, visit the information plaza, or take a hike down into the Canyon itself. Tonight we will meet for sunset at a special point along the south rim of the canyon.

*Camping night

Day3&4: Making our way across the desert, today we will stop in the famous small town of Seligman, AZ, better known as “the birth place of route 66”. In the early afternoon, we arrive in Las Vegas and your guide will give you a city tour so you can get familiar with Sin City. Once at our hostel in Las Vegas we will have just enough time to freshen up before heading out for a night on the town. Las Vegas is the gambling capital of the world, but there's plenty to do along the Strip for gamblers and non-gamblers alike - there's the casinos shows, plus tons of shops, amusement rides, dance clubs and great value 'all you can eat' buffets. Your guide will also help organize a group option so that everyone who wants can make a great big party on the town together!

* 2 Hostel nights

Day5: Today we continue our journey West and make our way towards Death Valley National Park and the Mojave Desert. We spend the day surviving this extreme park where temperatures this time of year can average 110 degrees! We will see various parts of this National Park, including sand dunes, salt flats and Bad Water...the lowest place in the western hemisphere. Making our way across the desert, we arrive at our beautiful grassy camping spot in a grove of cotton wood trees on the East side of the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountains.
* Camping Night

Day6: We get an early start today and spend the majority of our time in Yosemite National Park. There are many amazing hiking trails, short easy hikes and long strenuous ones, bikes for rent, horseback riding tours, and even small rafts that you can rent for a paddle down the Merced River! Your guide will help get you started on which ever activity suits you best. You will be treated to views of Half Dome, Yosemite Falls (tallest water fall in North America!), and El Cap, a 3,000 ft tall wall of granite! This day is yours to do as much as you can take on!

*Camping night

Day7: We get up early again today and make our way towards San Francisco. Arriving in the city in time for lunch, we will visit the most famous highlights of San Francisco; including the Golden Gate Bridge, lumbar St, Twin Peaks, Alamo Square, China town, City Hall and Fisherman’s Warf. In the evening we make an optional Sunset sailing trip available which is a fantastic way to bring this tour to an end. If that isn’t enough, the it a night out on the town, before continuing the after party at our hostel that has a dance club in the basement*Hostel night

Day8: Today we have no activities planned. If you are flying out in the afternoon, the hostel can hold your luggage until you are ready for your airport transfer. Because San Francisco is such a fun city, (and easy to get around on foot), we recommend staying for a few days after your tour. You will Love it here! If you do have to fly home today, get an afternoon flight and our hostel will hold your luggage for free why you explore San Francisco for one last day.

Som ni ser kommer vi campa ganska mycket (sova i tält) så vet inte hur mycket jag kommer kunna uppdadera. Men nu vet ni vart jag är. (Mormor och farmor om ni inte förstår googel translata ;)) Hoppas alla där hemma har det bra, vi ses snart!!
