I am a little behind with my updates, sorry. Today July 28th I am in Costa Rica and will stay here until August 17th. I finished my trip through the national parcs in the the southwest of the USA and managed it to visit my friend and former colleague Carsten with his wife in the Silicon Valley. In the USA I saw (and will post to this blog): Bryce Canyon, Zion Canyon, Death Valley, Yosemite National Parc, Sequoia NP and San Franzisco. Then I drove back to L.A. at the recently reopened Highway 1, there had been big fires around Big Sur in the last weeks. I visited the Hearst Castle and landed again in Pasadena where I repacked and reorganized for Costa Rica and Canada.
Flying to Costa Rica was quite challenging, my original flight was canceled and the other flights to Houston have been also delayed, so I would missed my connection flight. I was so smart to change my booking for the next day and choosed an earlier flight. This flight has problems with the plane and was also delayed for over 7 hours, so I changed to a latinamerican airline which flew direct from L.A. to Costa Rica, unfortunatly through the night.
In total I arrived nearly 2 day later than scheduled. The L.A. Airport is a mess and very chaotic!!
