A Volta do Godzilla!



Como mencionamos em um post anterior, no dia 26/05/15 deixamos o Godzilla na West Coast Rovers em Los Angeles para arrumar a correia do alternador que arrebentou a caminho de Las Vegas e, já que ele ficaria lá alguns dias a espera de peças, aproveitamos para fazer uma revisão geral. O nosso companheiro de viagem ficou 10 dias no total em seu SPA e saiu de lá tinindo sem o vazamento do… Ler mais

Welcome to the Fabulous Las Vegas



No domingo (24/05/15), após o problema com a correia do alternador, conseguimos chegar com uma certa dificuldade à capital mundial da diversão, Las Vegas ou simplesmente Vegas. Vegas foi fundada em 1905 e reconhecida como cidade em 1911, mas seu desenvolvimento só foi impulsionado na década de 30 com a legalização dos jogos de azar no Estado de Nevada e a construção da represa Hover, na fronteira dos Estados de Nevada e Arizona. Os… Ler mais

A Bruxa Está Solta!



Nós não acreditamos em bruxas, mas que elas voam, voam… Pois é, tudo que não tivemos de problema em toda América do Sul e Central, estamos tendo aqui nos EUA. Hoje (24/05/15) foi a vez da correia do alternador arrebentar. Saímos de St. George logo após o café da manhã e estávamos tranquilos pois seriam apenas 200 quilômetros até Las Vegas pela rodovia interestadual 15. Após rodarmos quase 90 quilômetros a luz da… Ler mais

The best places to lose your money in Las Vegas



From one strange town that appeared from the dust of the Nevada desert to another. Las Vegas seemed like the obvious next stop after a week at Burning Man. At a glance they might seem similar. Both springing up out of an otherwise barren desert. Both full of bright lights and constant action, events and […]

Vegas Street Art



We were pleasantly surprised to see art in Vegas. Not in galleries, but on the streets. Some of the coolest stuff we’ve seen on downtown streets since Valparaiso.

The Fremont Experience



We went for a little walk around downtown at night so Bode could get a better sense of what this city is about. It’s one of those places that continuously appears in movies and now video games, so he thinks he has an idea of what it’s like. It’s supposed to be AMAZING. Of course, being here is something completely […]

Vegas



It’s funny how quickly we forget. Being back in the U.S. means that I have to pump my own gasoline and I’m forced to watch TV commercials while I do it. And, airplanes overhead – lots of them. I haven’t seen an airplane in 3 months. I was just a little surprised that there were […]

Utah…Revisited!



We’ve had a great last couple of weeks. Utah is such a cool state with so many interesting parks and odd geology and geography. We did a little circuit of a lot of the National Parks including Zion, Capitol Reef,  … Continue reading →
