Tips - Cees   

PIN
You can PIN in the States as easy as here in Holland. (Get money out of the wall)

Flashlight
Bring you own flashlight. You really need it. Unlike here in Holland.. When the sun sets It will be pitch-dark instantly.

Pillow
Buy a pillow on the first day you arrive in the States

Washing powder
Bring your own washing powder (detergent). Even then your clothes will NOT get clean.

Cheap Levis
Buy cheap Levis when you are in the States.. It cost me 21 dollar..here in Holland 70 !!

Travellerchecks
Don't use travellerchecks. It's a pain.

Sandals
I wore my Teva-Sandals the whole 3 weeks except during my stay in Vegas and The Grand Canyon hike where I wore "runners/sport shoes".

Clothes
Don't bring to much clothes! They get dirty the moment you put them on

Amount of film.
Do bring a ridicules amount of film. You will make 700 pictures at least! (I made 1400)

Deed
Bring Deed/citronella/ or what ever to keep the midgets/mosquitos/gnat/muggen away. You don't need it often.

Medicine
Bring aspirin with you. You'll maybe get a bit ill from the temperature changes in and out a air-conditioned places. (Or from hangovers)

Sunblock
Please use factor 20 the first few days and then go to factor 10 (if your body can stand that) and even further down. I used factor 20 the whole 3 weeks and stayed as white as sheet.
