How do you fit 17 exciting and busy days into one blog post? I don’t know, to be honest. And I hope I’ll manage to tell you everything there is to know when travelling for a good two weeks around the West Coast (California, Arizona, Nevada). Do ask away if there’s anything I won’t cover in this post – I’ll be happy to answer.

We travelled to California on October 21st and stayed until November 7th. This time of the year turned out to be the perfect time to travel there, since the temperatures were mostly still very warm, but the crowds of spring and summer were all gone. When people in spring for example wait in lines forever at the Universal Studios, we ran from one attraction to the other, mostly waiting no longer than 5 minutes. It did get a little cold at the Grand Canyon and Antelope Canyon, but we didn’t have one day that wasn’t super sunny. It does get dark quite soon (the sun set no later than at 6 pm) so do keep that in mind when planning your day.
