From the country side to the Ocean

Driving from the country side to San Diego: A big adventure! We drove through Phoenix, that city is like an oven.  We arrived there with 120°F and went straight into a mall to escape the heat. The next day, we had to leave; we couldn’t stay longer there… So we took the road again driving through the desert. Unfortunately, our van and the traffic didn’t help us! We broke down 3 times and stayed 4 hours in a traffic jam! Luckily, strong soldiers help us to move the van at a safe place…

Once in San Diego we met our friend Silvan with who we spent our winter skiing with in Canada. It was perfect to have a friend as a tour guide and who showed us all the good surf spots and the city!
In Pacific Beach, we met another guy: Colin. He just moved in his new apartment and he still missed a lot of stuff in house. So we found the solution, we traded him our 2 bikes for a shower and the restrooms every day! And that’s what we did… This gentleman hosted us for our two weeks in San Diego for the trade of our 2 bikes! We spent two amazing weeks in the area: surfing, biking, golfing, the zoo, museums, Coronado Island, chilling on the beach, partying and enjoying our time there!

Unfortunately, we feel the end of our trip… We had to sell our van… Yes we did! Our beauty is not anymore in our hands, we sold it but for a good price. We can be happy because it is not easy to sell a Canadian car in California. Luckily the dealer agreed to do all the paper works to register it.
