Author Hi there!
It’s been a while, since I last was in the United States. Almost exactly 5 years, to be accurate.
In 2004, a friend of mine, Gernot, and I travelled about 4500 miles through the southeast. We started in Dallas, TX, went down to Clearwater, FL, up through the Blue Ridge Mountains and back to Dallas.
I guess, the most remarkable memory concerning that trip is the fact, we sank our rental car deeply in the swamp of Florida. We had left highway 19, followed a small road, took a turn right onto an even smaller road right into the woods and finally got stuck.
It was funny, even if was no fun at all 🙂
This year, I will arrive at Miami International Airport late at night local time on Wednesday, 2009-02-18. I’ll fetch my rental car and the first task will be to look for a Motel. I don’t have definite plans, except that I’m really looking forward to take some breakfasts at various Wafflehouses, that I plan to take lots and lots of pictures and that I wanna make a trip to Key West.
What I prepared so far:
- I’ve checked my tickets
- I’ve checked my authorization to travel to the US
- I’ve washed and dried lots of cloths 🙂
- I searched and found my US power plug converter
- I searched and found a huge map of Florida
I will keep you up to date 🙂

Today, I got one of the very first iPhones… Usability is quite new to me since I never had an Apple or an iPod. But i like it so far 😉
UPDATE:
After various complications getting my iPhone to work with my WLAN at home, this issue is now solved.
The one thing is still cannot believe is: no new software can be installed without hacking/breaking the phone. That’s really poor. I’d like to have several software such as IM installed.
