Twelve days only to discover one of the most attractive areas
of the American Nation. Hamburgers, growls and tips put aside, it was a quite beautiful discovery.

San Francisco is without any doubt one of the most pleasant Western cities I had the chance to visit. The Golden Gate, the cable car, Alcatraz and the typical victorian houses give this city a rather pleasant European style. Las Vegas, was especailly worth thanks to its world-famous money machines.

California also offers amazing nature sites : the Death Valley desearves all attention (in the shade of the 40 degrees) but also Yosemite National Park is nice.

Lastly, for the amateurs of Far-West, the golden road will please you and for animal lovers, nothing of such as the aquarium of Monterey and the landscapes of cliffs of the Pacific Ocean (West coast).
