\u00a0 Fazit \u00a0 Was bleibt h\u00e4ngen, von unserer bisher l\u00e4ngsten und am l\u00e4ngsten dauernden Tour? Eigentlich durchaus nur positives! \u00a0 Beginnen wir wie immer mit den Fl\u00fcgen. Ich hatte schon im Vorfeld viel Gutes \u00fcber Langstreckenfl\u00fcge mit Scandinavian Airlines geh\u00f6rt. Unsere Erwartungen haben sich best\u00e4tigt. Der Service des Flugpersonals, Sitzabstand im A 340, die \u00dcbersichtlichkeit im Kopenhagener Flughafen, alles hat uns prima gefallen. Leider stellt SAS diese g\u00fcnstige Verbindung im Herbst 2009 ein. \u00a0 Noch nie hatten wir solches Gl\u00fcck mit dem Auto. Waren wir schon mit dem Grand Cherokee\u00a0sehr gut bedient, hat uns der Saturn Outlook\u00a0noch besser gefallen. Der Jeep hatte vom Gef\u00fchl etwas mehr Leistung. Der Outlook war daf\u00fcr nagelneu, komfortabler und mehr Platz hatten wir bisher noch nie. Das Satellitenradio in beiden Autos hat f\u00fcrchterlich zur guten Laune beigetragen. Unser Favorit war DeepTracks. Sixties\/Seventies Rock ohne Unterbrechung und Wiederholung. \u00a0 Und wenn wir einmal bei der Gl\u00fccksstr\u00e4hne sind, sollen auch die Quartiere nicht zu kurz kommen. In viele der Hotels dieser Tour h\u00e4tten wir vor gar nicht langer Zeit noch nicht mal getraut, nach der Roomrate zu fragen. Priceline sei dank, blieben die Hotelkosten erstaunlich gering. \u00a0 Auch \u00fcber\u2019s Wetter k\u00f6nnen wir uns nicht beschweren. Es w\u00e4re vermessen, im Nordwesten mit durchg\u00e4ngigem Sonnenschein zu rechnen. Dass die Regen-\/Nebeltage ausgerechnet an der Oregoncoast und den Mammuts waren, ist einfach Pech gewesen. Aber auch ein Grund, evtl noch mal hier her zur\u00fcck zu kehren. \u00a0 Es ist ja mittlerweile kein Geheimnis mehr, dass wir nicht unbedingt Liebhaber amerikanischer Gro\u00dfst\u00e4dte sind. Diesen Eindruck m\u00fcssen wir nach dieser Tour kr\u00e4ftig revidieren. Portland, Seattle und vor allem Spokane haben uns \u00fcberaus gut gefallen. Nicht umsonst haben wir gleich mehrere Tage in diesen St\u00e4dten verbracht. \u00a0 Manch einem mag unsere Tour zu lang erscheinen. Die Fahrerei war jedoch niemals anstrengend oder gar stressig. Auf langen Etappen haben wir uns abgewechselt und in den St\u00e4dten war mit tomtom ein zuverl\u00e4ssiger Helfer an Bord. \u00a0 Der Nordwesten hat uns beeindruckt. Keine Slotcanyons oder W\u00fcsten, aber das haben wir auch nicht erwartet. Faszinierend waren die Wildnis und die sp\u00fcrbare Weite des Landes. H\u00f6hepunkte waren die Wanderungen im Hinterland der Columbia River Gorge und im Smith Rock State Park. \u00a0 Wie immer zum Ende noch ein paar Zahlen und Fakten. Wir waren insgesamt 5044 Meilen (8130 km) unterwegs. Haben insgesamt 212 Gallonen Sprit verfahren und daf\u00fcr 589 Dollar bezahlt. Der Jeep Grand Cherokee hatte einen Durchschnittsverbrauch von 11,4 Litern auf 100 km. Der Saturn Outlook lag bei 9,7. Die Hotelzimmerpreise lagen im Schnitt bei 79 Dollar. Bei dem zur Reisezeit g\u00fcltigem Dollarkurs waren das etwa 57 Euro. \u00a0 Wenn wir die Zeit zur\u00fcck drehen k\u00f6nnten, was w\u00fcrden wir anders machen? Eigentlich nichts! \u00a0 In diesem Sinne macht\u2019s gut bis zum n\u00e4chsten Mal. \u00a0 \u00a0 Ute &amp; Andie \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0&lt;\u00a0Zur\u00fcck\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Reiseberichte\u00a0&gt;\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3205,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3208","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3208","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3208"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3208\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16845,"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3208\/revisions\/16845"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3205"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/welcome-ontour.de\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3208"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
