Bill / Diane

Please find attached a few pics from my trip. I just want to say thanks again for being a huge part of my trip, which turned into a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The van was great and the advice and service received from Bill was fantastic.

Cheers - hope to see you again someday.

Eddie shipped to Sundance for the Film Festival



I wanted to add this to our "in the news" archive here on the blog only because I think it's kinda cool... a while back Eddie was loaded up on a trailer and shipped to Utah. He was used as a prop for the then upcoming movie 'Little Miss Sunshine'. If you haven't seen the movie it's about a family determined to get their young daughter into the finals of a beauty pageant. They take a hilarious cross-country trip in their VW bus.

Nalu returns home after a 14,000 mile, 55 day journey...




Our white hard top VW was wrapped in graphics by Spin Imaging before embarking on a journey that totaled 14,000 miles, and 55 days. Merchandise was given away by the 2 young men traveling in what was now the Cosmic Egg, our Nalu Imi (Wave Seeker). The VW moved about the U.S.A. as it followed various performers at a host of locations, all in an effort to promote Wolfmother's new album, Cosmic Egg.

Who is Wolfmother you ask? I had no idea until I asked my best friend's 18 year old son if he knew who Wolfmother was... all I can tell you was that his reaction was extreme. You can look them up on the web - the equivalent of Deep Purple and the '70's (my opinion only and I'm way out of the loop here) - hey that's the same era that Nalu hails from!

Bernd & Sandra :: Germany :: Big Sur, California Trip




Hi Bill,

As discussed on the way to the airport, find enclosed some pictures of our trip and some information about the campsite we found on Highway 1. The name is "Kirk Creek", 35 miles south of Big Sur, directly on the coast. For us it was one of the best campsites we ever found! You can find more information, also about the nearby "Plaskett Creek" on Recreation.gov. It was really a great trip with Taos along the Californian Coast, and for us it was like taking a little bit home with us because we are so familiar with the bus. If you ever will go on your trip to Europe and come to Germany, feel free to visit us (and our bus); perhaps we can share a short part of your Europe-trip together with two buses.

Cheers,

Bernd + Sandra
