In search for Northern Lights. Too much smoke last night in my area to see anything but still was fun to get out at night.

Took a few wildlife photos in Elk Island National Park :)

Merry Christmas! I took my annual photo of our home in Airdrie :) Not much snow this year, I waited, hoping snow will come but doesn't look like we will have much in the near future... Also, take a look at my photographs of the house from previous years to see how the tree grew and cars changed :)

DAY 9: Today we drove 1,001km... Final stretch and we are back in Canada :)

Had to get some road trip snacks from one of my favourite places while we were charing the car :)

Here is a map of our trip and some statistics. Nine states and two provinces in nine days and 5,676km traveled ... and way too much money spent on Starbucks coffee :)

DAY 8: Today we drove 935km... Another day full of driving. Very nice stop at the famous Bonneville Salt Flats, where I had a chance to take some photographs of my Tesla :)

Second big stop of the day was Yellowstone National Park. This is unbelievable place, but unfortunately, we arrived pretty late and didn't have much time for our visit.

DAY 7: Today we drove 924km... Long day of driving, starting our way back home.

Oliver was excited to see palm trees :)

Pretty high speed limit in many places in US.

We couldn't leave California without stopping at In-N-Out Burger place and I wasn't disappointed.

DAY 6: Today we drove 21km... Chilly morning visit to see Golden Gate Bridge :)

I left my family chilling in a swimming pool at our hotel as I went for a walk to explore and take some photos.

For the second part of the day our plan was to head to the Fisherman's Wharf and take a trip to visit Alcatraz :)

Well, we had an interesting night... At around 2am we were woken up by a fire alarm and the whole hotel had to evacuate while firefighters put out a small fire.

DAY 5: Today we drove 685km... Yearly morning wake up and we are on the road again.

One of the stops I wanted to make on this road trip was Redwood National and State Parks and it didn't disappoint :)

Yay, we made it to San Francisco!

DAY 4: Today we drove 352km... Didn't drive very much today and mostly just explored the Oregon coast :)

This was like a scene from a Jurassic Park movie.. great experience photographing pelicans by the ocean!

DAY 3: Today we drove 361km... We made it to the West Coast and spent some time at Canon Beach, Oregon... love this place!

Had lunch at this little place.. great food!

Tillamook Creamery is something interesting. We didn't plan to stop here but wanted to charge our car and Tesla Superchargers were right by this place... its hard to say no to an ice cream :)

We did some whale watching (from very far) and enjoyed the sunset until the fog came and took over the coast.
