While Alex daringly rode the famous mountain bike trails of Moab, I went to see Arches National Park. Why am I not showing you the arches of Arches? Because they look like stone donuts with American families in the middle who take photos. That is why. Plus: if you look for really fancy stuff, you have to look on the ground: it's CRYPTOBIOTIC SOIL CRUST! Wow!
Eclectic food decisions.

A: Inspiration Point!
You look pretty!
It is a long drive from San Diego, California to St. George, Utah. For reasons I cannot remember (likely: hunger) we stopped in Victorville and stumbled over Goodys Family Restaurant. Alex had a homemade ice-tea (real tea with ice and no sugar) and a burger with coleslaw, I had a meat sandwich and coffee. Goody, we are impressed with your place! So impressed in fact, that I just registered with yelp.com and gave you a glowing review.
10 days on the continent and no burgers yet. A scandal. We fixed this problem at the only place to fix a problem like this: the In n' Out Burger. Alex ordered "Double Double animal style". This meat-mantra must be memorised because it is a secret order that you cannot find on the menu. Exciting. And Yummy!
Via San Felipe and Mexicali back to San Diego. Will the U.S. border patrol treat us like no Germans ever travelled Baja and tried to enter California? You bet!
