State of the Land (30)


Photo: Even the homeless have to in the "Land of Plenty" are becoming more imaginative in order to survive ("Do you manage to meet with the coin in the cup?")

08/16/2010, Vienna

The "Spiegel" reports on the economic and social development in the U.S. and provides impressive and alarming numbers, which requires visitors began as a vague impression. One in eight Americans and one in four children living on state food stamps. 17% of the population is either unemployed or can not directly feed on their day jobs adequately. And the clear majority expects that it will go their children worse than themselves Where is the proverbial optimism of the Americans gone? If the consumer spending to rise again only to try again to cut down on the plaster, before the house auseinanderbröckelt?

Since the 70s the average income of working men has stagnated at $ 45,000, while that of top earners has since tripled. How long does the here is the belief that everyone can make it with hard work to the very top? After all, this is one of the basic conditions for social peace in the country.

other hand, a saving in Hawaii on Friday to school in parts of Georgia, the public bus and set in Colorado Springs, you can no longer afford even the electricity for the streetlights. This is no longer the "land of plenty" is. Although it is still the nation that looks down on everyone else and has its own model for thinking, but this can prove more difficult.

Our impressions of the lack of infrastructure in urban areas only existing mobile networks, poor Container houses and especially frightening many homeless people were obviously a true facet of reality. The 21 Century will probably not include the United States. Visit America as long as it still stands!

The FTI-reaction (29)

9.8. 2010 Vienna

FTI responds to the mail that I sent and in which I simply wanted to give feedback on the positive and negative points, especially regarding the chosen hotel. Although I have not claimed, they send a 100 € voucher as a thank you, but then they go contents not on one, but only point out, forward it to the product manager for "Magnificent West 'to do.

happy What do the Wiener (respectively Salzburg), when he comes back from vacation? On mountain spring water for the Twinings tea and hand rolls from Grimm.
The breakfast is delicious. No sweetened bread, decent, strong Earl Grey prepared with good water, jam, the fruit after taste and eat the luxury of fine porcelain plates. What is even easier to enjoy the fact that I lost in the holiday two kilograms, which presumably is probably in the family has a minority position.

the better food has to be earned, however, for convenience and service in stores is far from the U.S. standard removed. It was already seen an impressive experience, the sullen faces at the Spar store, the absence of any smile and muttered grouchy comments from a total of four employees after three weeks in the U.S. need to. Ok, Vienna in this respect is probably the most difficult terrain to North Korea, but after a U.S. residency makes you feel in a Vienna business as a nuisance and not as a customer.

makes the shared breakfast at 8.30 clock, because the jet lag is generally felt, remembered, recapitulated and evaluated. The tenor is unanimous: it exhausting, but it was especially beautiful and interesting. The West was really terrific, as the title of the tour promised.

The easy criticism of the organizers FTI is uniform. The last week was peppered with lengthy stages, the time to visit too short. The highlight of the rabble-rousing is abundantly clear Yosemite, but also the trip from San Francisco to Santa Maria has been felt. In the hotel are the simple run-down Comfort Inn in Palm Springs and the shaky and unprofessional Whitcom in San Francisco as negative points in mind, others such as the Hospitality Suite Resort in Scottsdale or the Aarchway Inn in Moab are particularly relevant positive. Together we are

spite of negative factors such as long car rides, short rest breaks and permanent change of hotel all in all got along very well together, have each taken a lot of respect and shared. Now we share a common memory of the most exciting of all holidays.

Back in Vienna ( 27)






Highlights of the trip included Lake Powell (photos 1 + 4) and Monument Valley (photos 2 and 3)

24.7., 5.15 Clock, Vienna

Back. In a hot non-air conditioned apartment in Vienna, but equipped to negotiate with the profusion of familiar possessions. The first drum full of clothes is already suspended, the first things packed. This is obviously the vitality and agility of five to six hours sleep in stages after 29 hours awake phase. Or is it only a sense of duty.

dreams The rest of the family, of America, but my dream is over. Almost 20 years I've been waiting for this trip and that she is now at an end is probably the biggest disappointment was the dar. my dream destination and I know of no other that could now take its place seamlessly. Otherwise it has

me - all in all - not disappointed. The mythical excesses of the media and the movies I've already tried to withdraw, although the images still remain in the head. After all, the goal was exactly the heart of the global film industry - landscapes filmed hundreds of times and it was artfully embellished by professionals. At the Grand Canyon, it was indeed the case that the mere nature is no longer in view of the glorified images could withstand.

lot but also meets expectations or placed deep impressions where no expectations have been waiting for. The Lake Powell or the trip from Grand Canyon to Page were not on the list of attractions that should make the trip unique. A simple dip in the Pacific at sunset, and the fight against the waves or walk to the Telegraph Hill in San Francisco are experiences that were not on the agenda of the travel agency, but were among the highlights.

The big difference was, above all, that this was a holiday full of experiences. The past 18 years brought holiday of relaxation, where the dates differed mainly by a buffet dinner and a change to the next book. In the event they were mostly kontrastlos into each other and they are in memory at all not assignable.

This time I am not recovered, possibly even more tired than before, but full of impressions and experiences. In previous trips, I have read, this time I have more self-lived and I take it with a lot more.

For the children there will have been a memorable vacation, while nearly all previous difficult for them to still remember the holiday and at least a few pictures to the memory access. This time we are more likely to have the problem of assigning the wealth of experience into the memory right, because it is a panoply of impressions available. Not everything was beautiful, not all was also positive and not all our requirements was held, but we have experienced a slice of America. We have learned something.

Hollywood and Departures (26)

22.7. 18.45 Clock, Los Angeles International Airport

The last day starts surprisingly but no fire alarm, but in apparent anticipation I still restless sleep and only in stages. The tea tastes with Erwin then coffee, which is evident elsewhere in the pot, but the donuts are baked fresh out again. Yes, they are young, they are warm, they are nice.

Then it goes for a change to the next Wal-Mart, because the kids still want to bring sweets for their friends. Obviously, the coolness factor weighs in some ways more difficult than the taste. What then yesterday for lack of time constraints still remained open today is made up: Hollywood and the Walk of Fame. The former shows simply as a slightly run-down neighborhoods with above-average density of cinemas and street vendors for Celebrity Tours, and secondly, the children will be disappointed if his puny irrelevance and completely. We have elders and from the adversities of life already disenchanted only expect anything - A dubious privilege of age.

Only the random drive through Beverly Hills (there are no hills), offering the prospect of architecturally elaborate villas as they usually are with us and finally increased the Amoeba Music CD collection to another. Otherwise, Los Angeles is the perfect finale for this trip: the sense of loss vanishes and the anticipation rises to Austria.

from a combination of slow-growing apathy and a quarter of our tour group already clearly eminent nervousness (as the online check-in failed during the fire alarm), we decide to just six hours before departure Alamo Rent a Car to drive. The return of the Dodge takes as opposed to complex acquisition within a mere minute and more than 4,000 mile ride are now behind us.

within 30 minutes we are at the check-in counter and the friendly Lufthansa employees named Roger tells us with all British politeness, that we had first been registered in Vienna, four seats in row 52 and was canceled, secondly, the connecting flight Munich-Vienna . The combination of German and British companies provides consultation us later but within 20 minutes tickets on the next plane for an hour, which we have almost relieved to note. (Later in Munich shows indeed that the original flight but should take place, but since our seats are allocated again.)

The security check takes still a delicate situation in which I asked the officers to the bulge under my shirt. I answer him that it was around the bag with my passport and wants to pull out of this. He calls alarmed: "Stop it, stop it" and a second security officer informs the now chalky pale man's aid. I pull out my leather case still fear what will happen as soon obvious that they can no longer take up arms in time. Thus, they stay with their dire warnings and I can do it on the metal detector, nude scan, take off shoes, luggage scanning and control still safely to the gate. This is after three weeks of traveling shoes off clearly the most dangerous weapon that is available to us.

the speakers we will hear another prompt that we met more often on this trip. "Please report ..." Whether it is unaccompanied baggage, unwanted money changer, drunk drivers or animal feeder to tourists - the call for denunciation, the U.S. society obviously appropriated.

Universal Studios and Venice - this time really Beach (25)

21.7. 22.45 clock, Erwin Hotel, Venice Beach

The desire of the children has been heard, so is this day Universal Studios and Universal Studios are now $ 236 more. We start after waiting at the cash with a further 40 minute wait, but as long studio tour is then quite interesting. There is much self-promotion for past and upcoming movies here, but the trip combines information and entertainment quite entertaining. Some scenes are often used for filming or Western cityscapes of the 19 Century will be beefed up with effects (flood, 3-D Godzilla attack, etc.).

Universal Studios, however, are now primarily an amusement park and for the rest of the day it is no longer the relationship between entertainment and waiting time. In Terminator, Shrek and Jurassic Park, we wait 40 to 60 minutes for each 5 to 10 minutes of 3-D film and boating. Sorry, now I had embezzled almost at Shrek the fourth "D", which is the visitor of the scenes (the donkey spit, the donkey sneezes, etc.) via a nozzle in the front seat to jet wet. Overall, this site

acts almost as bizarre as Las Vegas, as well as several thematic scenes are built up and it is 50 meters in an artificial London to land at the corner of an Italian piazza. The Americans seem to have fun but in droves and shorten the waiting times with perennial food and drink, $ 24.95 for the entire day as "All you can eat and drink" is available. This one with all the effort is not too hot to be cooled nearly all surfaces with massive water evaporators down. The water consumption of the Universal Studios presumably corresponds to that of a major Austrian capital.

At my insistence, we create just the sunset on Venice Beach or the view of individual rays of the sun, the Malibu would collect at the other end of the bay. This is very striking images and I rounded the visual impression with a swim in the Pacific off. With a presumably identical air and water temperature of just over 20 degrees I have to overcome a little while, but I will be richly rewarded. The waves are high and I enjoy the mixture of swimming, surfing, and put our backs Verschlucktwerden immensely. Completely out of breath, but very pleased to have braved the elements to some extent, I rise from the water and we can have a look at the hotel next to the fire alarm. Again it says at the reception, it was a false alarm, but this loses two ancestors fire engines a bit of credibility.

We decide to end the day at the restaurant next door, which offers English-Argentine-Italian cuisine. We learned of the co-owners of Palestine from his stays in Sweden, Indonesia and New Zealand, by his daughter in San Francisco and from his perception that next door was burned in the kitchen Erwin. Furthermore, we talk to the Australians, whose father is an Austrian, and with the American who has lived in Innsbruck, and by the way still enjoy good food. The Rib steaks are of the Chinese food in San Francisco culinary safely By far the best during these three weeks. Then both my mood and my constitution is strengthened enough for the next fire alarm.

Top Senior Week Places

Venice Beach (24)

21.7. 8.00 Clock, Venice Beach Hotel Los Angeles Erwin

Michael I had immediately recognized - even after 23 years. The restaurant in Santa Monica is his recommendation - just around the corner, or 15 minutes by car. The evening is nice, interesting and for me much more productive than the meeting with Carol. First, Michael asks about our route and we describe to him all the sights of his Country, which he still does not know or where he was most once as a child.

Then we move on to politics and comparisons between the U.S. and Europe. No later than the extent of the annual holiday periods, said Michael still want to emigrate to Austria and he could even try to learn Turkish to apply to immigrants in Austria proper. You can tell that Michael is pretty far left by American standards, but asked for the many homeless and he responded a bit baffled as to why we see this as a problem. The halt came to San Francisco or Venice, as they would as tolerated by the city authorities here sooner.

Unfortunately Mia present, as her stomach was "upset" is how a typical American reads this circumlocution. We bring in the American Grill restaurant with a serving of rice and learn from her that we missed in the meantime, two fire alarms. This is not a real failure, because apparently it still does not anyone understand that the relationship between smoking in the room and the next minute-long shrill scream from the pain threshold of a causal link. So we have twice the opportunity to remedy this omission - one of them in the middle of the night. The experience is always something new here.

Breakfast in Erwin is then doubly unusual: The breakfast room is full, so we in the so-called soft patio - a kind of veranda directly between the hotel driveway and four-lane road. Very cozy. But we experience the luxury of eating from real china plates and drink from right Mugs. And the muffins and donuts baked fresh taste and at least one class are better than elsewhere. You can tell just yet, that the hotel is owned by a French chain - the latest in eating and dining.

A Synonym For Acquiesce

Star Trek Museum in Riverside and Santa Monica Pier (23)

20.7., 15.00 clock, Erwin Venice Beach Hotel Los Angeles

We are particularly early to drive to Riverside. Where please? Well, there is not much, but at least a Star Trek museum. The kids do not have the night before, checked the Internet, including opening times.

We are lucky and the wind is always on the opposite side, so we - Breakfast at Riverside included - at 10.15 clock in front of the 110 kilometers away Museum arrive. What one does not do anything to make his children happy. We invite briefly the parking meter, when the children come back with beaten faces. The museum opens at 12:00 clock - that is 105 minutes waiting time. But what you do not everything to make children happy.

We read in the guidebook, climb a hill, feeding a squirrel now, sandwiches, and discuss with supermarket guards, whether one can wear a backpack in the market, looking for a toilet, look at houses to sit on park benches and even the waiting time order. $ 15 admission per person, which is probably true only for Trekkies. So I stay outside and wait. I can already pretty good.

already appeared after 30 minutes the rest of the family fairly well to very disappointed again. The museum consists of one room, rather than exist as promised, instead of the bridge of the Enterprise, only the chair of Captain Cirk and if you want to be photographed in it, costs it $ 19 extra. My pictures are strictly prohibited throughout the museum. I am hardly surprising that only 5 to 7 employees attending - are - us included. The other two visitors say that there is to see on any average convention more. What one does not do anything to get kids look happy.

We make it back to 14.00 clock to Los Angeles. The last stop on the trip, the hotel Erwin Venice Beach. The first impression is the parking fee is $ 28 plus tax plus tip for each delivering up or get the car. But after all, is one of the rooms are already finished and by and by all three to bed. I try along the way, to get the clock announced by 15.00 for second room. Not yet ready. 15.00 15.30 clock can also mean clock tells me the Latin American Californians. The day seems to consist mainly of waiting.

Generally I have the subjective impression that Latinos are the majority of the population in California. According to guide it will take 10 to 20 years, until it does, but at least at points such as hotels, supermarkets and shops is now almost only more Latin Americans in contact. The white Protestants remain well in all their offices, their air-conditioned houses and their BMWs. In this way, the Mexicans slowly get back what they had to hand over 150 years ago and the conversions made by the previous tenant at the object remain, fortunately preserved.

I'm going to see now whether clock can also mean 15.30 16.00 clock. I'm actually at 15.50 clock back, but only because I'm at the reception already become something of true.

19.15 Clock: When everyone woke up, we go to the beach in Venice. It takes only a minute for us is clear: it is simply too cold for swimming. So we stroll the promenade towards Santa Monica. Sounds pompous, but is actually inclined to fucked up. Some homeless people, some beggars, many tattoo, Tarot, stone jewelry, portrait and whatever makeshift roadside stalls set up and all. In between, the barkers, extolling everything up to the marijuana-Doctor. Behind this lie partly dilapidated buildings, but also some nice hotels and apartment complexes.

Even the Santa Monica Pier has its better days probably already decades behind. So we see us at the oblique types and move us as a remedy for the cold. The towels had brought at least help us against the wind to protect something. And now waiting for a dinner with Michael, the ex-partner Carol.

About Santa Barbara to Los Angeles (22)







photos from top to bottom: (1) Presidio in Santa Barbara, (2 + 3) Mission Church of Santa Barbara

19.7. 22 Clock, Holiday Inn Los Angeles LAX

The next day takes us to Santa Barbara, a beautiful, clean place that looks more Mexican than American. We visited again a mission church and the Presidio and a picnic on the beach. It is found that the gulls our U.S. food tastes much better than us.

look further on the journey we face the continued resistance of the Navi again on Highway No. 1 and be patient with our coastline - rewarded - though less spectacular than in Big Sur.

Malibu is then our entry into the LA-area. The known right from the movies villas on stilts above the beach, next to the even greater uphill. What Hollywood not show is the fact that the jogging or swimming at the beach must have a villa there, for miles around is no public access between the houses. And the place Malibu runs at least over 27 coastal miles. Here everything is bigger - the distances, the packages and the ego.

Malibu then goes on in Santa Monica, which means: more urban, less expensive. At the traffic jam we then realize that we are back in Los Angeles. The loop of 5000 km net is complete. This also means that we must return to the Holiday Inn LAX unpopular. Again, wash clothes, socks, blow dry sake of the children into the next shopping Center drive and then we are at 20.00 clock, when the children have spent the money given to tired to be looking for a restaurant. Sbarro in the shopping center on the plate offers Italian cuisine, whose only advantage is then that it saturates. But this abundance.

But shopping centers and restaurants are full of happy, satisfied and willing to buy American, which is surprising, since the towns have an incredible concentration of these shopping centers. Some appear on every third street - always on the corner - one of those things, and basically they see all the same. The Americans do it so well, so that they can always find your way, whether they in Philadelphia, Atlanta or Seattle. Inside, it always turns the same stores and fast food chains and all are well attended.

Sometimes one gets the impression that Americans live by each other to sell goods that were produced in China. And of course the fact that the Chinese would buy government bonds, which they then finance the deficits. I only suspect that the Chinese will eventually put the bill and then they heard the East and West coasts and in addition everything, where natural resources are inside. The Americans can either live in the prairie or the Chinese to pay rent for life. But then when I come back as tourists, at least the food has improved.
