The United States of America. The most well known country in the world. A global superpower,
inventor of Coca-Cola, and birthplace of the great George W. Bush. Every day, we are influenced by this country - our television, our social media, technology, celebrity idols and music artists are all products of the US. In a sense, the United States owns Australians.
One overcast day, Sam was indulging in a very meaty hamburger at Hungry Jacks which Nathan had served from the counter. Suddenly, we came to this America realisation. A large fries, coke, and a few pints of lager later, and we decided that 2012 was the year. It was time to turn the media influence into a reality!
We go to America!
And so it goes ahead! The last few months have been flat out organising everything. Hotels accomodation, tours, and flights. Shoutout here to Matt from STA Travel, whom we worked with to device a tasty sightseeing plan. The trip outline revealed itself along the way. We have a plane ticket to California and a Plane ticket home from New York. Forty days to get between them. This would be a cross country trip...After much discussion, and some worry from family (which we ignored), we decided to take the Southern States path on a tour. We were going through the deep South!
Why the South you ask? Well, maybe this photograph will explain....
"Welcome to Alabama, boys"
That just about sums it up! We leave June 16th (and yes, there is a whole suitcase dedicated to vegemite and cricket bats). We hope you can join us on the blog for live updates on the adventure!
Much Juice,
Sam and Nathan.
