                  fortunately for me you're right @Snowy …having a fucking blast is all I can say right now! 🙂

                  New York City has been treating me like a fucking star. thanks a ton to @urbanwoodsman who hung out with me pretty often and showed me around all the cool places (SE, BIG, Gentry, BrooklynDenimCo, Peter Luger, Crif Dogs, Shake Shack, Flat Iron Building etc. …).
                  in the end, I did everything a tourist "has to do" while being there and even a little bit more. took close to 1600 pictures of my 10 day NYC trip and did a shitload of stuff I didn't even dream of doing before I arrived.

                  below you can see a list of things I had in mind before going to NYC...gott'em all done! 😉

                  …so yesterday I actually spent the whole day on the amtrack. had a 9h train ride back to Virginia Beach.
                  the rest of my trip (until Sunday) I'm going to spend with my dad and the rest of my family. trying to meet up with @tvshooter and maybe even @bagley920 can jump in on having a couple beers on Friday evening!? 🙂
                  gonna visit the beach and have me some seafood before I'll leave back to germany.

                  I'll post pictures day after day then, since I really don't have the time right now. sorry bout that….NOT! 😛

                  thanks for following btw. you guys rock!

                                same goes for @derivative666 btw. …Jeff's awesome people as well! had some great times yesterday!

                                went for a beer in a very "nice" place (it really had sth. cool!)

                                …more pics to follow!

                                  well guess what…i'm coming back guys 🙂

                                  the dates aren't clear yet, but right now it looks like i'll be flying in in the middle of may (something around the 15th or so) and leave in the middle of june...so all in all i'm coming for another 4 weeks vacation 🙂

                                  right now it's planed to do the following:

                                  1week virginia beach
                                  1 week nyc
                                  1-1.5 week bay area (la, sf, ...)
                                  0.5-1 week nyc

                                  when visiting the bay area, me and my cousin might drive the following route:

                                  https://www.google.com/maps/dir/San+Francisco,+CA/Los+Angeles,+CA/Redwood+National+and+State+Parks,+California/@38.3105102,-120.2742154,6z/data=!4m20!4m19!1m5!1m1!1s0x80859a6d00690021:0x4a501367f076adff!2m2!1d-122.4194155!2d37.7749295!1m5!1m1!1s0x80c2c75ddc27da13:0xe22fdf6f254608f4!2m2!1d-118.2436849!2d34.0522342!1m5!1m1!1s0x54d06636f5417fa5:0x36cf3266953b5f8e!2m2!1d-124.004628!2d41.213179!3e0

                                  do any of you guys have any recommendations about the trip? "must see" places? things we need to checkout? places we need to visit? the route in general? etc. 🙂

                                  any help and ideas are much appreciated!
                                  thanks a ton in advance…cheers, R.

                                      That coastal drive will be great. I'm planning on doing the same one next spring!

                                        @Finn666 take Highway 1 down to LA, rather than 101. It hugs the coast, so will be a more scenic route, and it involves really cool bridges…

                                        You could drop in on Hearst Castle, which was the inspiration for Citizen Kane's Xanadu.

                                          Second that. Did that route in my early 20's with mates and it was one of the best trips I have ever done.

                                            As someone who has driven both routes, I must say that the 1 is incredible.  Definitely the more memorable route.  Still, you should know that sections are quite winding, and it is slow going at times.
