Germany is asleep – vocaldente is awake! Yesterday we participated in the terrific Pfäffikon a-capella festival in Switzerland: Despite political and financial discrepancies, it does exist: the friendship between Germany and Switzerland! Thank you everybody who took part in our workshop in the morning, who attended the concert later in the evening or who made that night possible at all!! Now, after an almost 24 hour trip: stopover in San Francisco. Considering the weather we would love to stay here. But the temperature at our final destination Redmond, Oregon is 78 degrees as well. So why should anyone complain? ;-) To all Central Europeans: sleep well! To all North Americans: here we come...

Approximately 333 miles all the way across the ninth largest US state!

Today we drove straight across the beautiful state of Oregon. Here, where the white settlers had traveled sweating and struggling in their prairie schooner, vocaldente raced down the road in their modern, air conditioned tourbus. Fantastic views AND: Admittedly, not Manitou´s shoe but at least Peter´s sneakers and Steve´s and Emma´s and...Take a look at Jakob´s first exclusive snapshot in the

This vastness is like the endless space of the universe as it is in Star Trek. Of course, this series was made in America! Here is the place where you have the idea for that sort of movie … After traveling hour after hour through prairie and mountains for about 400 miles, we are now at the gates of the “Yellowstone National Park” For Germans the endless space of the american freeways is a major challenge: “Don´t speed! Don´t speed! Never speed!” And then it happened – A sheriff and his deputy stopped us! But: we were not going too fast – or at least not to that extent that they would have recognized it ;-) - we were going too “unsteady”! They had watched us not maintaining the lane. Another peril of the endless space of freeways...
