What a panorama! For six hours we drove with the car ferry from Juneau, Alaska’s capital to Haines and then further on to Skagway. the trip cost us about 300 US $ of, and 7.2 million the landscape around it (and much, much more countryside beyond). On 18 October 1867 Russia sold Alaska for this sum to the United States. For this amount later on the Tsar certainly could hve bought some gorgeous Faberge Eggs.

If you want to wrest something positive about the “global warming”, then it is such a spectacle …

Hyder is located in america, shortly after the border to canada. One highlight of hyder is already mentioned in this sentence: canada. There is no american border control because here is definitly the end oft he world. You can´t go anywhere besides back to canada. Hyder is a still habituated gost town, somehow scacy to find new kids toys all over the place and even between the ruins. The other highlight of Hyder is somehow hidden on a nature surrendered backyard of a dilapidated house. One might think, an expedition from 1920 got stuck here in the jungle.
RIP normally means “rest in peace” but here it means: “Rust In Peace”
Mercedes and BMW and drivers of all european exotics in america should be aware: if you have a problem with your car in the phoenix area, then atwood european is the address to stay at. Andrew knows his stuff with the modern technology of vehicles, he not only has a super clean and well-organized workshop, he breathes Mercedes like none I have met before. On weekends – in his leisure time, he restores a “tail fin” mercedes which looks now as if it had come straight from the factory and he regularly reports his knowledge and progress of the restoration in “The Star Magazine Mercedes-Benz Club of America”
“I never give up my friend” he said again and again, but he finally had to capitulate because a special cable, which was important for the software update for the engine was not built into our truck. And, because all his efforts were not crowned with the success he would have liked, he hadn´t charged anything !!! Andrew, thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thanks also to the mercedes truck workshop in frankfurt where oliver kraus and martin lemmerz were conceded to solve my problems with the truck. Again: thank you, thank you, thank you.
