In the US we loved to buy Salt and Pepper chips (krinkle cut) from Kettle Foods. We often bought them at Whole Foods if we were going to have a nice “beer and chips” before dinner or just hang in front of the TV in the evening.
The other day in Kaufhof we found the same, just not krinkle cut, and just had to have them … sorry … they just did not taste at all.

Vongole, or clams, in glass cost more than beef tenderloin, per kg, so I’m not sure we’ll buy these .. at least not to make clam chowder!

Nearly everybody who knows Sabine and me also knows that food means a lot to us. We like to try different kinds of food, we like to cook food and we probably also talk more about food than most people.
Some have asked us, when you were on the road trip – what did you eat? Could you cook in the van?

After moving to Denmark we have got some food problems!! Yes food problems. It seems almost impossible to get fresh Anaheim (or New Mexico) Chili and Poblano Chili – two of our favorite “vegetables” 😉 .. and canned clams, hard clams, for making Clam Chowder (San Francisco style naturally).
Clams we probably can get fresh (have not tried yet) or maybe in Germany, where the itailan (yes they use them too) food sources are more readily avalible.
Last year, just before a large roadtrip, I was looking at buying a GPS logger to log where we drove, but also to tag our pictures with the GSP location where it was taken.
After reading this review I decided to buy a Qstarz BT-Q1000P.

To everyone who should happen to read my blog, also the ones who read it kind of late, Marry Christmas.
The last year has been very interesting for us and a lot of things are still unsetteled, but things are starting to form itself for us. We are looking forward to help shape a new year.
Happy New year to every one.
113 days (one in a tent and ten in a hotel) – 14,000 miles / 22.400 km – 860 gallons / 3270L of gas – 29 gallons / 110 L of coffee – one break down – 14 National Parks – 3974 pictures (…trigger happy …)
As you can guess we are now back in San Ramon and the trip has reached its end.
Saguaro National Park is split into a large, but a bit inaccessible, east park and a smaller, more accessible west park. We decided to go to the west and found a really nice county park – complete with prickly pear cacti and saguaro – just outside the national park where we could camp.
