Aaahw, we've reached the last four days of our roadtrip; they are mostly filled with traveling home. First tmn1966 and I drove from Chicago back to her place and then the final two days are me flying back to the future to Amsterdam airport Schiphol and taking the train back to my apartment. In between we had a whole day left for hanging out together ( Read more... )

Oh yes, after eight days on the road, tmn1966 and I made it to Chicago, the actual beginning of Route 66:) We decided to park the car in the suburbs and take the train into town, where we were to meet our last fangirl blind date... The lovely cassiopeia7 offered to show us around and I'm pretty sure I saw ALL THE THINGS. We made use of a lot of different kinds of ( Read more... )

Oh, hey, before I forget: I posted my artwork for the SPN-Cinema challenge: It's Grease Lightnin'! featuring Jeff, Jensen and the Impala ( Read more... )

Ugh, I'm really having a hard time getting used to being unemployed. Time seems to simultaneously stand still and fly by. I just don't know what to do with myself. Obviously I could have done this picspam days ago, but I lack motivation to do anything else but stare at the internets. Today is the day I'm putting an end to that. *determined face* ( Read more... )

It took me a couple of days to get used to not going to work, but slowly I'm getting the hang of filling my days at home. I've started exercising and have also picked up arting again! More about that tomorrow, first I'm posting an extra long picspam of the Texas leg of our roadtrip to make up for the wait after the previous set *grins ( Read more... )

This third picspam covers just one day of our roadtrip, but one packed with all the elements of a full US-experience! There was funky breakfast cereal and popcorn at the movies, tmn1966, her car and I cruised along the highway and discovered the first of many funky sights and outposts on Route 66. We also crossed the Mississippi river, visited a sculpture ( Read more... )

After all the hassle of me getting to the USA, finally starting our roadtrip was extra awesome. We got in the car a little after 2 pm on Wednesday August 5 with tmn1966 behind the wheel. I had originally planned to try and drive, but with the loss of our chill-day to practice and the intimidating traffic with very different rules from the Netherlands, I ( Read more... )

First things first...No matter how I try, I simply can't make a small selection of travelphotos, even for a short introduction post, oops. Before I take you along on our roadtrip, I have to get the shaky start of this trip off my chest. If you kept an eye on my Twitter, you already know about this and I did mention it briefly in a previous post, ( Read more... )

Quick hello to let y'all know I'm back home after two wonderful weeks in the USA (despite cancelled flights and lost luggage!). I have to sort through 1,000+ photos before I can do a first picspam and I would do it right away, but sillie82 is on her way for a two day fangirlsleepover, so y'all have time until the weekend to prepare for my massive holiday- ( Read more... )

So I was supposed to be on a plane right now, on my way to tmn1966 but after the flight to Chicago initially was postponed ("due to to flight crew availability") it was eventually cancelled all together, forcing me to find alternative options to get to the USA ( Read more... )
