Vacation again, with a smile

At last I am now another much deserved vacation again.
Good flight, easy time at both immigration and customs.
At the very least, the US authorities have learnt or maybe re-learnt the importance of respecting other cultures, religions and way of life AND not every one is a potential terrorist.
Listen, for most of us, we have such a great and prosperous life back in our own countries that we are not visiting u to stay on there or to destroy ur way of life.
We are just people who do well enough to be able to afford a couple of holidays a year.
So, if we have nice friends in ur country, we choose to visit u.
That being said, I luv going to the USA because of the diversity of climate and culture that it offers.

The first day after arrival went well as since I arrived on a weekend, my friends were able to arrange a Sunday out hiking and food tasting at the smaller towns. Lovely.
I was unable to give in to jet lagg due to that (tho I did fall asleep every time we all got in the SUV but then so did the others who did not drive!)
Today, Monday, it is a working day so I am left at home alone.
Helped out with my host's laundry. Small job since I get free accommodation. Hehe
I shall rest now. Nap if I can till host gets home.
Maybe we can take an evening walk if it does not get too dark then.
