Martin's Activity Log

So this is it, my last "real" night before flying to Boston - at least it's the last night where I can go to the pub and party. I need to leave around 4:30 am on saturday morning, so the next night will be really short.

I'm really looking forward to the Boston trip, it'll be so cool to meet all these great people from our team again :-)

After that week in Boston, I'll make an exciting road trip to Los Angeles, driving all the way through the country. So here's my schedule:

10/23

Leaving Boston, as early in the morning as possible drive till south of Washington, DC.

10/24

Take the Blue Ridge Parkway (parallel to I-81) through the Appalachian Mountains, stay in the mountains till dawn. After dark, drive another 100-150 miles south

10/25

It's about another 150 miles till Clemson, SC. Arrive there around noon, visit my friends Olli and Ama.

10/27, 10/28, 10/29, 10/30

Drive west till the Grand Canyon. Probably stop in Memphis (TN), Oklahoma City (OK) and Roswell (NM).

11/01

Leave the Grand Canyon, drive north till somewhere around Sacramento, CA (about 600 miles)
