Petr Habala: Trips

Here are some impressions I gathered on my trips around the USA. All in (sort of) English. Czech versions are also available. Some files are quite big, so beware. These are actually letters I wrote to my friends after our graduation in 1996 scattered us around the globe. Expect to see boring parts where I cater to our common hobbies you don't care about, or where I explain interesting things I learned about US history to put what I see into perspective (and so that I won't forget it again). Anyway, as you already clicked your way here, perhaps you will find some parts interesting.

I spent a beautiful spring in Berkeley in 1996.
A made a little trip around central and east Texas during Thanxgiving break in 1996.
And then Christmas came. Is there anything better to do than making a big trip to California and back?
May is a great time to see deserts, canyons and other assorted places, so I used the two weeks between spring and summer sessions to make another big trip, this time to Utah.
In July 1997 I went for a brief visit to Europe and New York, but despite its short duration it was a great trip.
In December 1998 I went for the third of my big trips, this time around Southeast.
During the spring break in March I went to Big Bend and hiked mountains and deserts for a week.
In July 1999 I went for my last big trip, hoping to catch up on things I missed in my previous forays to Southwest.
