<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Et comme tout bon local qui se respecte, on sera devant notre écran pour "participer" à cet évènement sur-médiatique et un peu sportif malgré tout ;-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Mais avant ca, quelques explications s'imposent pour nous profane de ce si célèbre sport auprès des américains mais ô combien complexe pour le commun des mortels - aka les autres!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Chaque équipe dispose de <span style="color: #3d85c6;">11 joueurs</span> sur le terrain. La succession des phases de jeu permet autant de changement que l'on veut.</span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Une équipe comprend une formation d'<span style="color: #3d85c6;">attaque</span> (11 joueurs), une formation de <span style="color: #3d85c6;">défense</span> (11 joueurs).</span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">L'équipe en possession de la balle, doit la faire progresser jusqu'à la zone d´en-but adverse (end zone).</span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">L'équipe de défense doit empêcher cette progression. Les contacts entre joueurs adverses sont réglementés et tout manquement est sanctionné par une pénalité collective (perte de terrain pour l'équipe).</span></div>

<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Le match démarre par un coup de pied d'engagement (kick-off), puis un nouveau kick-off est fait pour faire démarrer le 3e quart-temps.</span></div>

<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">L'autre équipe réceptionne la balle et remonte le plus de terrain possible. A partir de là, l'équipe d'attaque doit faire avancer le ballon jusque dans la zone d'en-but adverse du terrain. Pour ce faire, elle doit, pour conserver la possession du ballon et continuer sa progression, <span style="color: #3d85c6;">couvrir au moins 10 yards</span> (9,10m) en quatre tentatives (<span style="color: #3d85c6;">downs</span>), soit par des passes vers l'avant (une par tentative), soit par des courses au sol. Si ce contrat est rempli, l'attaque dispose d'une nouvelle série de 4 tentatives (first down) pour parcourir à nouveau au moins 10 yards et ainsi de suite jusqu'à l'en-but.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Comment marquer des points ?</span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Il y a 3 façons différentes d'inscrire des points en football américain:</span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">

C'est l'équivalent de l'essai au rugby à la différence qu'il n'est pas nécessaire d'aplatir. On peut le complèter par un coup de pied entre les poteaux à 1 point (Extra Point) ou par un "mini" <span class="glossary">touchdown</span> qui ne vaut que 2 p</span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">oints (two-points conversion). La première option est la plus courante, la seconde étant bien plus compliquée.</span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">le</span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"> <span style="color: #3d85c6;">Field Goal</span></span></span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">: il vaut 3 points. C'est un coup de pied entre les poteaux tenté lors d'une phase de jeu.</span></div>
<div style="padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify;">

C'est le fait de plaquer le porteur du ballon dans sa propre zone d'en but. U</span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">n <span class="glossary"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">fumble </span>(perte du ballon par un joueur)</span> d</span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">e l'attaque qui sortirait de la zone d'en-but (en ballon mort) donne aussi un</span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;"> </span><span class="glossary"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">safety </span><i>(p</i></span></span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;"><i>lacage du porteur du ballon dans sa propre end zone)</i></span> </span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">à la défense. L'équipe victime du safety dégage le ballon au moyen d'un coup de pied (balle en main) depuis ses 20 yards. Ce coup de pied est appelé <span style="color: #3d85c6;">Free Kick</span>.</span></div>

Sausalito & Tiburon...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Quand on imagine son premier voyage à San Francisco, on pense bien évidemment au Golden Gate Bridge, emblème incontournable de la ville, si ne n'est de la Californie.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Une fois celui-ci franchi, et l'arrêt quasi obligatoire au vista point pour faire sa photo souvenir, beaucoup reprennent la route dans l'autre sens pour revenir vers la ville, et c'est bien dommage.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">En poursuivant votre route, vous tomberez très vite sur la très jolie et attachante ville de Sausalito, petit port de pêche niché en face de San Francisco, avec une vue imprenable sur <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_Island" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Angel Island</span></a> et <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%8Ele_d%27Alcatraz" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Alcatraz</span></a>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">La ville propose une promenade le long de l'eau bien agréable lorsque le soleil est de la partie.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">De l'autre côté du trottoir, des maisons plutôt design se suivent et ne se ressemblent pas. Sausalito s'est rapidement fait une réputation de ville assez huppée fréquentée principalement par ceux ayant fait fortune dans la silicon.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Si on poursuit notre route, on trouvera un peu plus au nord, la ville de <a href="http://ca-tiburon.civicplus.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Tiburon</span></a>, toute aussi charmante, et qui à l'instar de Sausalito nous offre également une sublime vue sur la Baie de San Francisco.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ce qui a de bien en visant dans la Baie, c'est qu'on a des choix très variés pour visiter les environs!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Fin décembre on a profité d'avoir de la famille à la maison pour faire un aller-retour sur la journée du coté des vignobles de Sonoma.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Vous avez sans doute déjà entendu parlé de la <a href="http://www.napavalley.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Napa Valley</span></a>, mais sachez que juste à côté, la région de <a href="http://www.sonomacounty.com/fran%C3%A7ais" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Sonoma</span></a>, moins connue et semble-t-il un peu plus sauvage, est tout aussi magnifique à visiter.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Comme vous l'avez compris, notre choix s'est porté sur Sonoma, on retournera néanmoins avec grand plaisir une prochaine fois pour faire la Napa (pas de jaloux!).</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Sonoma est une petite ville située dans le comté du meme nom. Elle a été fondée en 1823, et a été construite à partir de la Mission qui est toujours présente et qu'on peut visiter si l'on passe par là.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-size: large;">La ville en elle-même est très charmante et vaut un arrêt.</span></div>

Il faut de la place pour garer la poussette, mettre la chaise haute, il faut que le service ne soit pas trop long sous peine d'entendre quelqu'un se plaindre... Bref ca peut devenir un vrai casse-tête!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Alors, quand on tombe sur un restaurant kids friendly ca donne tout de suite envie de venir tester!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Et c'est ce que nous avons fait, sur la bonne idée d'une copine :) Quoi de mieux que de faire un crash test avec plusieurs enfants!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">En plus de ce temps de playtime durant votre diner, j'ai vu que le restaurant proposait aussi des "soirées" film pour les enfants au moins une fois par semaine! A vérifier si ce n'est pas une activité pour les fêtes de fin d'année exclusivement ou si cela est reconduit l'année prochaine (rien n'est indiqué pour le moment sur leur site internet).</span></div>

9000 km plus tard...http://www.blogger.com/profile/07854057547578580376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8344196398058467602.post-56678995409119919912016-01-05T22:05:00.000-08:002016-02-09T21:11:20.028-08:00Mon premier cours de Yoga<span style="font-size: large;">Qui dit Californie, dit aussi pratique sportive et Yoga!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Ce n'est pas un mythe, beaucoup de personnes ici pratiquent une activité sportive. Je crois que c'est assez culturel et fait partie des mentalités et habitudes de vie. Le stéréotype de la californienne avec les lunettes de soleil et en jogging est plutôt vrai :-)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Et le Yoga est une activité très répandue ici.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Je n'en avais jamais fait, pas certaine que cette activité "zen" me convienne :) Je suis plutôt adepte du running, cardio et autres activités sportives plus dynamiques ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Le hasard des rencontres a mis sur mon chemin <a href="http://www.thedharmastudio.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Françoise</span></a>, prof de Yoga et installée dans la Baie depuis de nombreuses années!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">J'ai profité de la présence de la famille venue nous rendre visite pour les fêtes pour m'échapper et aller suivre un cours de Yoga dans le studio de Françoise à Palo Alto.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Son studio est vraiment magnifique, on ne peut que trouver le lieu zen et apaisant. Des baies vitrées donnant sur un jardin zen et aéré renforcent ce sentiment de calme et de détente.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Le cours dure 1h15, Françoise a tout de prévu, matelas, serviette et petit coussin si besoin pour s'asseoir.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Françoise pratique le Hatha Yoga, et présente ses séances comme il suit:</span><br />

Your regular yoga practice will increase flexibility, bone density, muscle strength and endurance. It improves concentration and reduces stress. Each 75 minute class also includes a brief meditation practice.<br /><br />All ages and experience levels welcome!</span></i><span style="color: #062134;">"</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Je vous mets le lien de du post qui proposait le Swap <a href="http://www.frenchfriesandapplepie.com/swap-noel-france-usa/" target="_blank">ici</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Le principe du Swap était donc d'échanger avec une autre personne un colis de Noel en respectant un budget fixé. Chacune avait un questionnaire à remplir pour se présenter un peu, donner ses goûts et/ou des idées de ce qu'il pourrait nous faire très plaisir de recevoir soit des US (pour les bloggeuses en France), soit de France (pour celles comme moi aux Etats-Unis). Et Laetitia a ensuite formé des binômes et envoyer les réponses au questionnaire à chaque binôme!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">J'ai donc eu Estelle en binôme, et ai ainsi découvert <a href="http://mumnours.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Mum'Nours</a>, qui nous raconte son aventure de maman à travers son blog :)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">J'apprends donc qu'Estelle habite dans le sud de France, qu'elle a un petit garçon et aime notamment le maquillage et le chocolat (avec une demande spécifique de recevoir de Reese - que personnellement j'adore aussi!!).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">J'ai donc essayé de lui composer un colis de produits que j'aime qui lui plairait et qu'elle ne trouverait pas en France...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;">Le détail:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">- des Reese, ce sont des sortes de petites tartelettes de chocolat remplies de peanut butter. Estelle souhaitait en recevoir des US, je lui ai donc envoyé un stock ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">- un gel antibactérien Bath and Body work, j'en ai plein à la maison et je les trouve très pratiques</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">- un mascara CoverGirl qui est un must pour moi à acheter en venant aux Etats-Unis !</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">- un baume à lèvres Burt's Bees au miel, qui est aussi une marque que j'affectionne beaucoup ici</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">- une huile pour bébé Johnson's qui fait la peau toute douce</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">- un blush de la marque Nyx</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Je crois que le colis a du mettre 7-8 jours ouvrés à arriver chez Estelle.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Aujourd'hui on part du côté de Half Moon Bay pour aller couper son sapin! Ici, c'est une activité assez répandue et qui met tout de suite dans le bain!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Il y a pas mal de "nursery" ou de fermes de sapins qui proposent de venir choisir et couper son propre sapin. En général le prix est fixé par espèces de sapin (je ne m'y connais pas du tout, mais les très foutus, les bleus, les royales etc.), peu importe la taille !!!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Au passage, on évite l'erreur de débutant et on s'assure avant de couper le sapin qu'il rentre bien dans la voiture ;-)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

Assez typiques ici il faut le dire.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">J'ai été invitée à participer à un White Elephant, et un White Elephant c'est quoi ?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JSiP-IyyO78/Vn3fqINxf5I/AAAAAAAAB7Y/Sxqo2Qt6XKs/s1600/a72365a22d46f1a17dbe33d5a563ea81.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JSiP-IyyO78/Vn3fqINxf5I/AAAAAAAAB7Y/Sxqo2Qt6XKs/s400/a72365a22d46f1a17dbe33d5a563ea81.jpg" width="260" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Il s'agit d'un jeu d'échange de cadeaux de faible valeur. Chaque participant apporte un cadeau (au choix il peut être drôle, utile, traditionnel, joli... up to you).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">On le met ensuite sous le pieds du sapin et on patiente un peu :)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Chacun va tirer un numéro qui va de 1 au nombre de participants. Nous étions 21, et j'ai tiré le numéro 9.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Le numéro 1 a donc été piocher un cadeau sous le sapin (pas le sien évidemment!) et l'a déballé devant tout le monde (Nota Bene: feindre la surprise s'il s'agit d'un cadeau qui ne plait pas ;-) ).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Le numéro 2 peut soit piquer le cadeau du numéro 1 si celui ci lui plait soit piocher un cadeau sous le sapin et le déballer comme le premier, et ainsi de suite jusqu'à ce que tous les participants aient joué. Chaque cadeau ne pourra toute fois être piquée que 2 fois, la 2e fois le "voleur" du cadeau en deviendra le propriétaire définitif!!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">C'était très drôle et plutôt bon esprit. On a vu passer entre autre des bougies, des chaussons, des boucles d'oreilles, une poêle, des écharpes.... L'important étant plus de s'amuser que de réellement obtenir un cadeau idéal :)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Je suis repartie avec les boucles d'oreilles que j'avais piqué à une autre participante ;) Lucky me !!</span>9000 km plus tard...http://www.blogger.com/profile/07854057547578580376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8344196398058467602.post-32654200062652271982015-12-14T15:11:00.000-08:002016-02-09T21:12:33.360-08:00Point Reyes<span style="font-size: large;">Le WE prolongé de Thanksgiving nous a donné envie de bouger un petit peu, ayant de la famille avec nous c'était aussi l'occasion de faire visiter le coin ;)</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Noel approche, et à peine les décorations d'Halloween rangée au garage, celles de Noel ont commencé à être installée dans les jardins, sur les maisons, aux fenêtres, chez les commerçants, bref un peu partout ! L'esprit de Noel est là !</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Chaque ville commence d'ailleurs a organiser plein de festivités et c'est un super moment pour faire des sorties et se plonger encore plus dans l'ambiance festive de Noel.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Notre centre ville n'échappe à la règle, et nous sommes ravis d'habiter à Los Altos où il y a un très joli centre ville avec plein de boutiques et restaurants qui participent à l'animation de notre ville.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Une des animations très attendue était le Festival of Lights Parade qui s'est déroulé fin novembre.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Chaque commerçant, association, collège ou lycée participe à ce festival, avec un "char" (ou non) décoré de plein de lumières, des danses, une fanfare... il y a en a pour tous les gouts, et nous en avons pris plein les yeux !! Une sorte de parade de Disney mais avec des pompom girls ;)</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Décidément je suis vraiment fan de l'ambiance ici pour la fin d'année !!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">C'est un des spots plébiscités par de nombreuses personnes ici dans la Bay, pour qui veut passer une journée à la plage...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Effectivement en voiture nous ne sommes qu'à 40min, dingue de se dire qu'il y a à peine 2 mois nous vivions en ville, entourés de bitume, métro, immeubles et j'en passe.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">On a donc pris la 280 (j'adore cette autoroute, le paysage est généralement plutôt calme et apaisant), et direction l'ouest pour Half Moon Bay (rien que le nom fait rêver je trouve!).</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">La ville mériterait qu'on s'y attarde beaucoup plus, mais là on était pressé de mettre nos pieds dans le sable (et manger!). On a donc fait un rapide arrêt pour faire un ravitaillement dans une sorte de boulangerie/café (d'ailleurs je recommande c'était très bon !!).</span><br />

9000 km plus tard...http://www.blogger.com/profile/07854057547578580376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8344196398058467602.post-79032515015678168672015-11-28T22:53:00.001-08:002015-12-07T14:58:53.369-08:00Happy Thanksgiving !!Nous attendions avec impatience de vivre Thanksgiving ici aux Etats-Unis et de sentir l'atmosphère qu'il y règne pendant cette période toute particulière.<br />
<br />
Il faut savoir que Thanksgiving est une fête très importante aux US et est aussi (voire plus) fêtée que Noel, car Thanksgiving est une fête laïque qui se fête donc quelque soit sa religion. Pour mémoire, Thanksgiving se célèbre le 4e jeudi du mois de novembre, et vient commémorer le partage des vivres entre les colons américains et les indiens. Ces derniers les aidèrent en leur apprenant à cultiver les produits locaux (que l'on retrouve dans les plats traditionnels de Thanksgiving).<br />
<br />
<br />
Notre Thanksgiving n'a pas failli à la tradition, et notre hôte américain de cette soirée nous a cuisiné un repas de Thanksgiving dont je me rappèlerai sans doute très longtemps, tellement tout était délicieux, mais surtout l'ensemble était homemade !! (même la pate feuilleté c'est dire !) Messieurs prenez en de la graine ;-)<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Je n'ai malheureusement pas beaucoup de photos, trop pressée de gouter à tous les plats (il faut bien le dire) et de discuter avec nos amis.<br />
<br />
Nous avons eu donc le droit à la fameuse dinde, une purée de pommes de terre, une purée de patate douce avec un crumble au-dessus de noix (tellement bon), du stuffing (mélange de pain, saucisses...), un gelée de canneberge, des choux de Bruxelles, des carottes caramélisées, une tarte aux noix de pécan, une tarte aux pommes et deux glaces (homemade toujours) à la pomme et la 2e a la vanille je crois bien...<br />

Nous avons passé une excellente soirée, sous le signe du partage, de l'amitié, et de la convivialité.... un GRAND merci à Jon et Caro pour leur accueil et pour cette excellente soirée.<br />
<br />
<br />
Je crois bien que notre premier Thanksgiving restera un moment inoubliable<br />

Ca se sent dans l'ambiance des rues, chez les commerçants, à l'école... partout.<br />
<br />
N'oublions pas que Thanksgiving (jeudi prochain!!) est une fête énormément célébrée ici aux Etats-Unis, au meme titre que Noël. D'ailleurs dans la Silicon Valley elle est peut être plus fêtée que Noel car il y a beaucoup d'indiens ou d'asiatiques ici qui ne fêtent pas Noël en fait.<br />
<br />
Cependant, tout est prétexte ici à célébrer et décorer sa maison dans une ambiance festive. Et nous, ca nous plait plutôt pas mal :)<br />
<br />
Depuis qu'on est enfin installé (conteneur récupéré - hiiiiiiii joie et bonheur intense de retrouver ses affaires!) on essaie de trouver toutes les occasions pour se familiariser avec notre nouvelle ville, et notre vie locale :)<br />
<br />
A Los Altos, ca tombe bien il y a tout un programme de festivités qui démarrent a partir de mi novembre jusqu'à la fin d'année.<br />
<br />
Le premier RDV à ne pas louper était le Holiday Stroll du downtown de Los Altos: éclairage des lumières dans les rues, châtaignes grillées, chorales de rue, ballades en calèches, boutiques ouvertes toute la soirée (avec des soldes intéressantes pour l'occasion) etc.<br />
<br />

Nous nous sommes juste ballades dans les rues, et bon OK on a aussi fait les boutiques, mais ca valait vraiment le coup, j'ai pu découvrir une petite boutique de vêtements très jolis pour enfants (marques européennes principalement).<br />

Nous avons eu aussi le plaisir d'écouter plusieurs groupes chanter des chants de Noël dans les rues (ils font 3-4 chants et se déplacent dans la rue pour recommencer - ambiance américaine assurée), c'était très chouette.<br />

<br />
We've been there as there was a Bay Area preschools event. Fortunately we have found one for our daughter!<br />
<br />
We took the opportunity to visit the museum then after, the luck was with us since we did not pay our tickets (thanks to Bank of America the first WE of each month the visit is free for its customers).<br />
<br />
Honestly I do not remember everything that I've read or listen during this visit (it was a little more too geeky for me ;p) but it was fun to understand more about how all of this "computer world" began here and the role of the different partners at that time.<br />
<br />
Our daughter (4 y/o) was not very receptive to the visit, it should probably better to bring kids of 6-7 years old and above.<br />
<br />
Anyway, some pictures of the visit :)<br />

9000 km plus tard...http://www.blogger.com/profile/07854057547578580376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8344196398058467602.post-76021325030085833182015-11-06T15:00:00.004-08:002015-11-06T20:57:52.275-08:00Driver License - Le permis de conduire en CalifornieJ'aborde aujourd'hui un vaste sujet... le code de la route US et le permis de conduire en Californie !<br />
<br />
Autant vous dire qu'avant d'arriver j'avais déjà commencé à potasser le sujet et je me disais que j'aurais largement le temps de m'en préoccuper une fois bien installée et quand j'aurais vraiment du temps pour ça.<br />
<br />
Que nenni !<br />
<br />
Je vous explique un peu comment cela se passe ici.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uu0r-T9wBOw/VjhRNhVqGjI/AAAAAAAABb8/lIZI7Id-x0E/s1600/22b66e3a047d3148e2d92cf0a9d41e07.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uu0r-T9wBOw/VjhRNhVqGjI/AAAAAAAABb8/lIZI7Id-x0E/s640/22b66e3a047d3148e2d92cf0a9d41e07.jpg" width="468" /></a></div>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;">Validité du permis français et international sur le sol américain ?</span><br />
<br />
<br />
Les règles diffèrent d'un état à un autre, ce que je vous dis ici ne s'applique qu'à mon expérience en Californie.<br />
<br />
Il faut tout d'abord savoir que si vous êtes en vacances en Californie (et donc un séjour de moins de 3 mois) ou avec un visa résident américain, les règles ne sont pas les mêmes.<br />
<br />
Si vous venez passer vos <b style="color: #0b5394;">vacances avec un visa sans être résident </b>(touristique...), c'est simple: votre <b>permis français</b> est suffisant, pas besoin de faire d'autres démarches, il sera valable <b>3 mois </b>(la même durée que votre séjour touristique maximum). Si vous avec un <b>permis international </b>cela peut être avantageux uniquement auprès des loueurs de voitures en obtenant peut être un meilleur tarif, ou cela vous facilitera peut être un peu plus certaines démarches, mais sinon rien de plus. Le permis international est alors <b>valable 1 an aux Etats-Unis</b> (donc utile si vous prévoyez de venir plusieurs fois en vacances aux US durant cette année).<br />
<br />
<br />
Si vous êtes en Californie avec un <span style="color: #0b5394;"><b>visa dans la démarche d'être résident</b></span> (ce qui est notre cas avec nos visas H1B et H4) là ca change tout. Votre joli <b>permis international</b> que vous avez pris le temps de faire faire avant votre grand départ ne sera finalement <b>valable que 3 mois </b>à compter de votre entrée sur le sol américain. Tout comme votre <b>permis français</b> donc, qui lui aussi est <b>valable 3 mois</b>. Donc finalement pas vraiment d'intérêt à avoir fait ce permis international...<br />
<br />
C'est d'autant plus frustrant que pour l'instant nous ne sommes pas encore considérés comme résident (fiscalement parlant), et on le sera qu'au bout de 3 mois!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;">Driving license test - Le test du code de la route aux US</span><br />
<br />
Tout comme en France, il nous faut passer le code puis si on le valide, la conduite. Il n'y a cependant pas d'heures de conduite imposées comme en France.<br />
<br />
Les règles du code de la route applicables en Californie diffèrent quelque peu de celles que nous connaissons en France.<br />
<br />
Le premier exemple concret qui me vient est le fameux "Right Turn on Red"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gjVdE_RTztk/VjhCCxj1_7I/AAAAAAAABbM/yzTq34BxVII/s1600/Right%2BTurn.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gjVdE_RTztk/VjhCCxj1_7I/AAAAAAAABbM/yzTq34BxVII/s400/Right%2BTurn.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Je vous ai mis de panneau pour vous symboliser la règle, mais a vrai dire vous ne verrez pas ce panneau en Californie, car la règle est qu'on peut tourner à droite au feu rouge si la voix est dégagée. Comme il s'agit d'une règle générale elle n'est pas rappelée sur les feux.<br />
<br />
Par contre vous verrez parfois celui-ci:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8FH0cttmJ0Q/VjhC1eIYsGI/AAAAAAAABbU/axxsGei8dXw/s1600/r10_11b_no_turn_on_red.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8FH0cttmJ0Q/VjhC1eIYsGI/AAAAAAAABbU/axxsGei8dXw/s320/r10_11b_no_turn_on_red.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Le panneau parle de lui même, ici évidemment il est interdit de tourner à droite au feu rouge.<br />
<br />
<br />
L'autre grand changement est la règle des STOP. Vous trouverez très peu de "priorité à droite" ici. On a généralement des intersections avec 4 STOP (un pour chaque voiture).<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wgEBSqN57QA/VjhF-iFoBhI/AAAAAAAABbg/LRQsfvrQX3I/s1600/hqdefault.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wgEBSqN57QA/VjhF-iFoBhI/AAAAAAAABbg/LRQsfvrQX3I/s400/hqdefault.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Et forcément la première fois que vous vous trouvez à ce genre d'intersection, vous vous sentez bien seul :<br />
"- j'y vais ? j'y vais pas...?<br />
- attends je crois qu'il y va lui !!<br />
- Et celui de droite pourquoi il avance pas-, il prend pas sa priorité à droite ???<br />
- .... bon bah j'y vais quand même!"<br />
<br />
Puis quand vous lisez le code de la route, vous comprenez. La règle de priorité dans ce genre d'intersection est au premier arrivé. Et aussi incroyable que ca l'est, ca marche plutôt bien!<br />
<br />
Et que ce passe-t-il quand on arrive en meme temps ?? Et bien là celui qui est a droite à la priorité, en principe, en général de ce que j'observe c'est un peu freestyle quand tout le monde arrive en meme temps (chacun attend et le premier courageux se lance).<br />
<br />
Cette règle demande donc d'être toujours observateur de ce qu'il se passe et en général chaque conducteur respecte la règle et n'essaie pas de forcer le passage.<br />
<br />
Il y a d'autres spécificités (je ne vais faire toute la liste) mais le plus compliqué en passant le code est finalement de se familiariser avec les termes anglais et d'apprendre par coeur les questions types qui seront posées lors du test.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #0b5394;">Comment se déroule le test ?</span></b><br />
<br />
On prend un RDV au DMV (Driving Motor Vehicles) et une fois les documents validés au guichet on se dirige dans un ordinateur (pour la version en anglais, on peut aussi choisir de le passer en français ou autre langue, mais dans ce cas le test sera sur papier et les traductions ne sont pas super fiables), et on doit choisir à chaque fois la bonne réponse.<br />
Il y a une trentaine de questions il me semble et il faut faire moins de 7 fautes.<br />
L'ordinateur indique quand on se trompe, ca permet de savoir ou on l'en est!<br />
<br />
Une fois le code passé et obtenu (on est content la vie est belle !), on va se faire prendre en photo et prendre nos empreintes.<br />
<br />
On a alors un permis temporaire qui (depuis la nouvelle loi cette année) nous oblige a devoir conduire en étant toujours accompagné d'une personne dotée d'un permis californien. La bonne blague !!! Autant vous dire que je suis repartie dans ma voiture seule et que j'ai conduis jusqu'au jour de mon test de conduite sans accompagnateur ! #moderebelion<br />
<br />
A priori tous les DMV n'appliquent pas cette règle aussi strictement.... je ne sais pas trop quoi en penser.<br />
<br />
J'ai donc programmé un rdv au plus vite (une semaine plus tard) pour la conduite !<br />
<br />
Exemples de questions au code:<br />

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;">Drive test - Le test de la conduite aux US </span><br />
<br />
On m'avait dit au DMV de venir accompagnée d'une personne ayant le permis californien, sinon je ne serai pas autorisée à passer la conduite. Très pratique ce genre d'obligation quand vous venez d'arriver et que trouver quelqu'un de dispo à 8h du mat' un lundi relève du défi!<br />
<br />
Heureusement le réseau des mamans de la Bay m'a sauvé la mise !<br />
<br />
J'arrive donc le jour de mon RDV et passe au comptoir valider mes papiers (mon accompagnatrice doit montrer son permis) puis je prends la voiture pour faire la queue pour passer le test. Oui, grande spécificité ici, on passe le permis dans sa voiture.<br />
<br />
Un premier check sécurité est fait: mon inspectrice me demande d'enclencher clignotant droite, gauche, essuie glaces, klaxon etc. On me demande aussi d'indiquer les directions manuellement.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-waKT7Vj8oBI/VjhMxrMaAXI/AAAAAAAABbw/fwjplxxTTHc/s1600/driving-hand-signals.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="333" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-waKT7Vj8oBI/VjhMxrMaAXI/AAAAAAAABbw/fwjplxxTTHc/s400/driving-hand-signals.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Puis une "ballade" d'environ 15 minutes démarre dans les rues de Santa Clara (là où mon DMV se situait). Pas de piège particulier, on nous indique clairement de tourner à droite ou à gauche, puis de se garer le long du trottoir et de reculer.<br />
<br />
Il faut bien penser à se tourner et regarder les angles morts pour tourner, ici les pistes cyclables sont très fréquentes, et la protection des vélos est regardée de près!<br />
<br />
La petite anecdote me concernant est que j'ai passé mon permis le seul jour où il est tombé un véritable déluge dans le coin. A tel point qu'on ne voyait quasiment plus rien, ni les marquage au sol...<br />
<br />
J'ai aussi eu le droit à une voiture qui déboule au dernier moment et aux ambulances, et là tu te demandes si tu peux ou non te mettre a droite sur la piste cyclable pour te décaler comme les autres voitures devant... Bref tous les éléments étaient déchainés en ce lundi matin pour que je loupe mon permis...<br />
<br />
<br />
Bon, je mets fin au suspens..... j'ai eu mon permis!!! J'étais tellement soulagée que j'ai failli embrasser mon inspectrice! (je plaisante).<br />
<br />
Elle m'a donc remis la feuille de notation avec le "passing" coché. Je suis retournée à l'intérieur du DMV et j'ai récupéré un bout de papier qui sert de permis temporaire. Je recevrai le vrai dans 2 à 3 semaines, YEAH !!!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
Il devrait ressembler à ça :<br />

Je ne suis vraiment pas peu fière d'avoir tout réussi du premier coup! Je le dis d'autant plus que je ne suis pas certaine que si je repassais ma conduite ou mon code en France je les valide à la première fois.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;">Au final, combien ca coûte ?</span><br />
<br />
Là c'est la bonne nouvelle. En tout est pour tout (code et conduite) <b>j'ai payé 33$</b>!!<br />
Sachant qu'a contrario de la France, le permis de conduire constitue ici une vraie pièce d'identité. Et il va donc me permettre à moi pauvre H4 sans SSN (social security number) d'avoir un semblant d'existence sur le territoire américain, re-YEAH !<br />

J'étais donc chargée de préparer un dessert et ce fut un crumble aux pommes !</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Rendez vous donné à 18h pour un "diner rapide" (oui ici on mange tôt) avant d'aller faire Trick or Treat dans les rues de Los Altos.</span></div>

</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Ce pot-luck nous a permis de rencontrer des français et aussi des américains, ce qui nous a beaucoup plu !! Les plats étaient délicieux, on a même eu le droit à du Champagne (français) !! Bref c'était Noël avant l'heure ;-)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Pendant que nous dinions, la coutume veut que les enfants sonnent aux portes des maisons (environ à partir de 17h) et demandent le fameux "trick or treat", ce à quoi l'hôte de la maison proposent des treats (des bonbons en général si il n'y a pas envie de recevoir des cailloux - c'est une image hein). Et bien sur tout le monde joue le jeu, niveau décoration des maisons et déguisements ! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Je m'attendais à quelque chose de dingue pour ce Halloween aux USA et je n'ai pas été déçue. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Malheureusement je n'ai pas vraiment pu prendre en photos toutes les maisons vues et décorées pour Halloween (je suis le plus souvent en voiture quand je les vois !!), ni tous les déguisements croisés.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Mais tout ce que je peux en dire c'est que les américains ne font pas vraiment pas les choses à moitié et ne manquent pas d'imagination!!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Après avoir terminé le repas, nous sommes donc partis du côté de Los Altos Downtown (à Orange Avenue - ca ne s'invente pas, cette rue est destinée à célébrer cette fête!) pour faire le tour des maisons et récolter des bonbons (oui car dans l'histoire il y avait une certaine petite fille qui avait bien compris le principe d'Halloween et voulait récupérer des treats !!).</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Ce coin est assez réputé, et on comprend vite pourquoi! Quasiment toutes les maisons sont décorées pour Halloween, et quand je dis décoré le mot est faible. Il y a toutes sortes de mises en seine sur certaines maisons qui sont complètement hallucinantes (un habitant du coin fait même venir un bateau pirate pour l'occasion, on l'a pas vu malheureusement). </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">L'année prochaine je m'y prendrai mieux et vous ferai les photos qui illustrent tout ca.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">En attendant, quelques photos prises de nuit ce qui vous donnera un faible aperçu :)</span></div>

<br />
Situé à San Jose et juste en bordure de la 280 (pratique!), le <b><a href="https://www.cdm.org/" target="_blank">Children's Discovery Museum</a> </b>est une idée de sortie à faire avec des enfants dans la Baie.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>En info utiles</b>: <i>il y a un parking juste en face (payant 5$ la journée), mais si vous avez de la chance (comme nous) vous tomberez peut être sur des personnes qui partent et vous proposent leur ticket!</i><br />
<i>On peut également se restaurer sur place, pratique si on a oublié le gouter ! </i><br />
<i>Ils proposent un pass annuelle pour la famille, qui est vite rentabiliser si on a l'intention de venir plusieurs fois par an. Vous pouvez d'ailleurs choisir de le prendre à la fin de votre visite (si vous êtes convaincus ;-)) et ils déduiront le prix des tickets payés ce même jour du prix de l'abonnement.</i><br />
<br />
<br />
Cet endroit est vraiment idéal pour une sortie enfants de tous ages! Ayant un babyboy d'un an et une grande fille de 4 ans, on a pu les occuper et les divertir tous les deux sur presque toutes les activités.<br />
<br />
Dans le niveau du bas, on peut dans le désordre, monter dans un camion de pompier ou dans une ambulance, jouer avec les feus de signalisation, expérimenter les jeux d'eau (WaterWays) et de bulles, ou se plonger aux temps des dinosaures.<br />

Des activités manuelles sont également proposées et animées par des personnes du musée. C'était <b><a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jour_des_morts_(Mexique)" target="_blank">El Dia de los Muertos</a> </b>ce jour là, et on pouvait peindre des petites têtes ou fabriquer des poupées en pailles. On pouvait également assister à un spectacle à l'extérieur en l'honneur de cette fête.<br />
<br />
Il y a aussi un très grand espace pour construire et fabriquer ce que l'on veut avec des modules en mousses de différentes formes (Imagination Playground - je crois que cette exhibition est temporaire jusqu'au 11 novembre). Nos deux enfants se sont beaucoup amusés ici !<br />
<br />
Ensuite à l'étage, on accède à un espace qui regroupe plusieurs activités thématiques : Pretend (jouer à la dinette...), Story time (dans une foret avec plein d'animaux en peluches a disposition), Crawl Space (pour les plus petits uniquement, des modules et tunnels à parcourir), Art Studio (peintures, dessins, collages etc. sous forme d'activités encadrées avec du personnel du musée), Sand Laboratory (verser, vider, peser, re-remplir.. tout un tas de contenants avec du sable brillant), Theatre, Math Science (expériences scientifiques autour des cercles et autre, des miroirs, 2D et 3D...)<br />

Comme vous pouvez l'imaginer j'ai beaucoup aimé cet endroit, car il regroupe plein d'apprentissages très variés et tous accessibles de façon très ludique et créative!<br />
<br />
On s'est ensuite baladé en voiture (il était déjà tard) dans le coin à San Jose, que je ne connaissais pas, ca a l'air sympa, et ca ressemble beaucoup plus je trouve (et du peu que j'en ai vu) à une grande ville américaine.<br />

Vous connaissez San Jose ? Des recommandations sur la ville et où s'y balader (à pieds) ?<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Une des choses que nous attendons avec impatience depuis notre arrivée, c'est de fêter Halloween ici, aux Etats-Unis !</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Depuis le début du moins d'octobre, on ne peux l'éviter, des citrouilles ont fait leur apparition un peu partout ! D'ailleurs beaucoup de maisons sont déjà décorées, ca nous plonge dans l'ambiance, c'est super sympa :)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Pour préparer Halloween, il faut bien sûr des citrouilles, et les américains font ce qu'ils appellent des <b>Pumpkin Patch,</b> des sortes de chasse à la citrouilles organisées dans des fermes généralement, avec tout un tas d'activités (payantes) pour les enfants. Le but du jeu étant de choisir sa ou ses citrouilles en vu de les décorer (puis les manger!) pour Halloween.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Notre choix s'est fait sur <b>Pastorino Farm</b> (à coté de Half Moon Bay), la ferme avait l'air sympa et j'avais lu plusieurs recommandations dessus. Et hop c'est parti !</span></div>
<div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">En arrivant il y a le parking (payant toujours) et l'espace citrouilles juste a coté, on ne peut pas le louper !

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Ensuite on a poursuivit notre chemin pour aller voir de plus près un festival autour de la citrouille qui se tenait à Half Moon Bay. Il s'agissait d'une sorte de grande foire où plein de créateurs et artisans exposaient leurs objects (pas forcément en rapport avec les citrouilles hein !)</span><br />

On commence par du lourd... genre LE produit vu sur des blogs avant même de partir et qui me laissait sans voix... Les oeufs liquides, vendus en bouteille donc ! #beurk<br>

Le lait... ici il y a beaucoup de choix dans les produits laitiers, entre les 2% fat, les plain, les 0%, les organic ou pas organic, lait de vache, amande etc. il y a de quoi s'y perdre !<br>

Dans mon frigo on a opté pour ca:<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br>
<br>
Je ne trouve pas (pour l'instant) de petit suisse cependant... et les yaourts sont venus à l'unité, pas très pratique. Sinon on achète des gros pots de yaourt (un peu comme nos pots de fromage blanc en France).<br>
<br>
<br>
Les cake, et gateaux en tout genre ont bien leur place ici :) ils sont de toutes les couleurs ! Pour en avoir gouté un, ils sont plutôt bons en plus !<br>
Je n'ai pas de photos sous la main mais la prochaine fois promis je vous montre ca! ;-)<br>
<br>
<br>
Au rayon "fromage" on trouve souvent ça :<br>
<br>

<br>
Alors oui, moi aussi la 1ere fois je me suis dit.. non mais serieux, du fromage en baton. Bon ca semble tout a fait normal ici, et finalement j'ai cédé, j'ai acheté. C'est pas trop mal ! Ca plait aux enfants, forcément. Et puis il me semble qu'en France on a deja un truc qui y ressemble.<br>
<br>
<br>
Ici, le jus d'orange s'achète en gros bidon d'un gallon. Environ 3 litres...<br>
<br>
Du coup dans mon frigo on trouve ça :<br>

<br>
Ca prend de la place vous me direz, mais dans un frigo américain il y a toujours de la place !<br>
<br>
<br>
Dans les supermarchés US tu peux aussi te faire ton propre peanut butter, ou almond butter !<br>

<br>
Bon allez je termine par le plus savoureux. Vous avez très certainement deja entendu parlé de ce "plat", qui ne donne pas forcément envie mais comme c'est la base il me fallait de tester of course<br>
<br>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">contente de savoir qu'il s'agit de "vrai" fromage...</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br>
Et bien ce n'est pas mauvais ! Notre fille adore évidement. En meme temps des pates et du fromage je ne prenais pas un gros risque.<br>
<br>
<br>
Et vous, quel est l'aliment US qui vous intrigue, vous donne envie ou vous rebute ??? Je peux tenter un crash test ;)<br>

<span style="color: #252525; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;">The Fleet Week in San Francisco was from 5th to 10th October this year. Each day there were military demonstration and air shows in SF around the Marina and the piers.</span></div>

A seulement 45min de Mountain View (si ca roule bien!) ca en fait un spot de plage et de surf assez prisé des habitants du coin, et même depuis San Francisco, duquel il faut plutôt compter 1h30 pour arriver à Santa Cruz.<br />
<br />
<br />
Ville étudiante, Santa Cruz est aussi connue pour accueillir le long de la plage le BoardWalk, réunissant tous un tas d'attractions de fête foraine comme les US savent si bien en faire.<br />

Petit conseil, si vous arrivez à vous garer dans la rue c'est bien, ne faites pas comme nous à aller tout au bout de la rue principale pour vous retrouver embarqué dans les parkings payants et bien trop chers !! (15$)<br />
<br />
Le boardwalk n'est a priori pas le must du coin (pour ca plutôt aller à Santa Monica), mais ca donne tout de même une image assez singulière du coin et des US pour nous pauvres français (et oui nous on s'émerveille devant un rien que voulez vous !)</div>

<br />
On se gare (parking payant again!) et on accède rapidement à la plage et à cette vue sur rocher en forme d'arc que la mer traverse. On peut même organiser son pique nique ou son barbecue juste à coté, tout est prévu dans les bois qui séparent le parking de la plage...<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Je commence donc une série sur ce thème que je complèterai au fur et à mesure.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">1. Leur LIT </span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Il est super haut!! Et surtout on a un king size, au moins 1.80m de large!! Hallucinant, on se perd dans le lit.<br />
C'est vraiment genial d'avoir un king size, surtout avec des enfants je trouve. On peut passer du temps ensemble le soir (chacun avec un livre à la main... Bon ok moi j'ai plutot l'ordi sur les genoux) sans se gener les uns les autres! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>

<br /></div>
<div>
Pour le plus grand bonheur des chats!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">2. Leurs FEUX de signalisation</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
Ils sont de l'autres coté de la route, attention à bien vous arrêter AVANT! On s'y habitue vite.</div>
<div>
On a aussi le droit de tourner à droite lorsqu'on a le feu rouge et que la voie est libre. Ceci est une specificité en californie et dans d'autres états, tous ne le pratiquent pas ( se renseigner avant donc!)</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">3. Les fenêtres</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
Oubliez les fenêtres qui s'ouvrent en portes battantes! Ici elles s'ouvrent de haut en bas et généralement il y a une moustiquaire sur chaque fenêtre (très pratique!).<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Fermées</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-LvWEboOQxBg/VhQSKh-cOzI/AAAAAAAABDg/jKqqiWvmZHU/s640/blogger-image-1061097173.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-LvWEboOQxBg/VhQSKh-cOzI/AAAAAAAABDg/jKqqiWvmZHU/s640/blogger-image-1061097173.jpg" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ouvertes</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Alors il paraitrait que les moustiquaires ne sont pas pour les moustiques (on en n'a d'ailleurs pas vu!) mais pour les araignées (oh-my-god), genre les veuves noires (hyper dangereuses... re oh my god... si vous me chercher je suis enfermée dans mon appart - fenêtres fermées bien évidemment !) #hyperventiliation #evanouissement #help<br />
<br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">4. Leur moquette et leurs rideaux </span>(spécial #coupdegueule!)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
C'est quoi ce delire de mettre de la moquette partout?!? Alors ok dans les chambres ca a du sens (on passe sur le coté allergie et acariens toutefois hein) mais dans le salon et la salle à manger, seriously ?! En plus c'est souvent une couleur crème jaunasse qui ne s'accorde avec rien!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Gros plan moquette</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-5A4EmMoSPIE/VhQSLQrdYwI/AAAAAAAABDo/aO8Srl3CBcM/s640/blogger-image--608929215.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-5A4EmMoSPIE/VhQSLQrdYwI/AAAAAAAABDo/aO8Srl3CBcM/s640/blogger-image--608929215.jpg" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Et encore celle-ci n'est pas trop mal ;)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Leurs rideaux c'est l'angoisse... C'est des stores en fait. Ca fait du bruit ca n'occulte pas du tout la lumière la nuit, et si tu mets la clim ca les fait tellement bouger que tu ne peux pas dormir (gé-nial les stores les gars!)</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<br />
Ce n'est pas une légende... et c'est difficile à expliquer mais l'ambiance générale est sereine ici, les gens sont souriants, calmes, et plutôt bienveillants... spécialement quand tu es avec une poussette et des jeunes enfants je trouve. Je crois que c'est un trait assez caractéristique des américains en général pas juste en Californie (après biensur y'a des c*ns partout hein ;))<br />
<br />
Sur la route, c'est aussi flagrant. Certains conduisent un peu n'importe comment mais si (comme moi) tu cherches ton chemin et conduis plutôt lentement, personne ne te klaxonne, ou ne s'énerve parce que tu mets trois plombes à tourner ou à savoir dans quelle direction aller. La plupart conduise cependant au dessus des limitations de vitesse (quand tu vois le prix de l'amende c'est d'ailleurs assez étonnant !), mais globalement conduire ici n'est pas si compliqué (dixit celle qui déteste conduire, et ne conduisait jamais dans Paris...)<br />

Sur la 101, yeaaaah baby!<br />
<br />
<br />
Comme partout il y a du plus et du moins selon sa propre expérience et point de vue, l'idée est juste de donner quelques anecdotes personnelles sans jugement de valeur ;) Si vous adorez la moquette - qui plus est crème jaunasse - c'est tout à votre honneur ! ;D<br />
<br />
<br />
Voila sinon je reviens vite avec cette rubrique, faut que je vous parle de leurs pommeaux de douche c'est n'importe quoi ! :)<br />
