We have had a blast and have seen so much of the states, met up with long lost family, spent time with locals to see what it is really like to be American, seen some very cool towns and sights and found ourselves hanging around water, marinas and boats as often as we could....(I won't miss fried food, hot dogs, portions big enough for 6 people and sweet bread though) To be honest, living in NZ isn't quite so bad - we really don't know how lucky we are ....we hope you have enjoyed reading the blogs and see you all soon....

Mike's summation of America (his once and only guest appearance)
The US of A is made up of 50 quite different countries they call States all in search of their own identity. America itself seems to be unsure what its identity is, well apart from demonstrating its strength as a superpower, at enormous cost both in mankind and money ($3trillion in debt last count)
America is obviously in a state of depression which is clearly apparent in many parts, however you can't help but get the feeling there is more to come. However, people are generally upbeat and mostly very friendly, those not in the "tipping" service industry genuinely so. It is an amazing place to visit so vastly different to good old NZ. Trip has been awesome and I would like to thank my lovely girlfriend for writing this blog (he he I wrote that bit!)The US of A is made up of 50 quite different countries they call States all in search of their own identity.
