This morning I went to the Californian 'mountains'. I did not realise that since moving to Switzerland I had become such a mountain snob, but these were no mountains, big pretty rolling hills yes, mountains no (I am now totally spoilt!). However, what was extremely impressive was the size of the amazing redwood trees. They were fabulous, absolutely massive, and so full of history as some of the groves date back to before the Battle of Hastings (1066).
After my tree experience, I headed to a very American institution to get the full cultural experience, the mall. Six hours later, a little lighter in the pocket, I am now sitting in a Star Bucks planning my next adventure tomorrow..
