Pre road trip - a delayed success

Yesterday we did our pre road trip to Bayonne, NJ and back. Only seven hours, but still an experience. The goal - leaving the black car for shipping - was achieved, but mentally the experience was a mess. Car including half of our current possessions was left to a guy who only could say "Okay, good bye" with a similar villain English that you hear in movies when something more or less criminal is going to happen. Honestly it was pretty disturbing, since in addition, we didn't get any receipt or anything else related to that action. Luckily, we got the papers by email today.


There it goes...

Since the gas tank has to be almost empty when the car is shipped, I tried to optimize the consumption. However, I seem to suck in any kind of optimization...




In all, everything is ready for tomorrow's inital start. It will be about 11 hrs drive which also means no running tomorrow...

  2. Good luck with your short trip and maybe you should consider to take a little trip to Joplin also.

    I'm sure our coach would gladly offer you to stay at his house and tell you stories about Finland.
