Zav\u0159eli jsme za sebou br\u00e1ny Alja\u0161ky a taky dve\u0159e od auta. Te\u010f bylo to trh\u00e1n\u00ed kilometr\u016f na cest\u011b do Pittsburghu\/Toronta. Na\u0161t\u011bst\u00ed je po cest\u011b po\u0159\u00e1d \u010demu se divit, tak t\u011bch 6500 kilometr\u016f relativn\u011b ut\u00edk\u00e1. P\u00e1r post\u0159eh\u016f z p\u0159edn\u00edho sedadla.<\/p>\n
Zab\u00edt \u010das? Vyu\u017e\u00edt \u010das!<\/p>\n
St\u0159\u00edd\u00e1me se v \u0159\u00edzen\u00ed pom\u011brn\u011b rovnom\u011brn\u011b. Karel jede dopoledne, j\u00e1 sp\u00ed\u0161 odpoledne. I na sedadle spolujezdce se sna\u017e\u00edme \u010das n\u011bjak smyslupln\u011b vyu\u017e\u00edt. Tak\u017ee j\u00e1 se vrac\u00edm do hokejov\u00e9ho sv\u011bta, sna\u017e\u00edm se p\u0159ed Sv\u011btov\u00fdm poh\u00e1rem nastudovat co nejv\u00edc materi\u00e1l\u016f.<\/p>\n
Ob\u010das n\u011bco p\u00ed\u0161u. Ob\u010das si d\u00e1m dvacet. Pr\u016fb\u011b\u017en\u011b se spole\u010dn\u011b div\u00edme. Kamion\u016fm vezouc\u00edm dvougenera\u010dn\u00ed domy. Obrovsk\u00fdm stroj\u016fm na budov\u00e1n\u00ed d\u00e1lnic. Rezidenc\u00edm m\u00edstn\u00edch zem\u011bd\u011blc\u016f. Po\u0159\u00e1d dokola krajin\u011b. K jej\u00edmu pr\u016fzkomu n\u00e1m pom\u00e1h\u00e1 pr\u016fvodce NG, kter\u00fd jsem dostal od drah\u00e9ho bratra.<\/p>\n
Karel piluje \u0161pan\u011bl\u0161tinu, objevuje novou metodu u\u010den\u00ed se ciz\u00edho jazyka. A\u017e pohnu s angli\u010dtinou, tak to snad taky zkus\u00edm. Ostatn\u011b jazyky mohou otev\u0159\u00edt cestu k dal\u0161\u00edm dobrodru\u017estv\u00edm, kter\u00fdch m\u00e1me oba v pl\u00e1nu asi tak na t\u0159i dal\u0161\u00ed \u017eivoty\u2026<\/p>\n
Tak muziko hrej\u2026<\/p>\n
Ot\u00e1zka hudby byla jedna z prvn\u00edch. Na\u0161t\u011bst\u00ed se n\u00e1\u0161 styl dost prot\u00edn\u00e1. Rozd\u00edl je v tom, \u017ee j\u00e1 m\u00e1m hudebn\u00ed hluch a Karel sluch. Ob\u010das m\u016f\u017eeme vypnout reproduktor a m\u00e1m \u017eiv\u011b akustickou kytaru. Slu\u0161n\u00fd luxus.<\/p>\n
Sranda je, jak jsme postupn\u011b roz\u0161i\u0159ovali n\u00e1\u0161 playlist. V Jasperu jsme si gratulovali ke sb\u00edrce asi p\u011bti hodin rockov\u00e9 hudby. P\u0159ibli\u017en\u011b druh\u00fd, t\u0159et\u00ed den se n\u00e1m oposlouchala. Tak\u017ee te\u010f m\u00e1m v telefonu asi 500 p\u00edsni\u010dek a dal\u0161\u00ed jsou u kolegy.<\/p>\n
Za\u010d\u00ednali jsme se skute\u010dn\u00fdmi mistry. Bruce Springsteen. Led Zeppelin, Queen\u2026 Te\u010f ob\u010das jeden Bomby Ben Cristovao, neust\u00e1le vy\u0159v\u00e1vaj\u00ed sv\u016fj Siln\u00fd refr\u00e9n Hork\u00fd\u017ee Sl\u00ed\u017ee a sem tam se u St\u00e1nk\u016f zastav\u00ed Honza Nedv\u011bd.<\/p>\n
I cesta je c\u00edl<\/p>\n
Projet si Alaska Highway za hezk\u00e9ho po\u010das\u00ed je z\u00e1\u017eitek na cel\u00fd \u017eivot. Jezera, hory, lesy. A taky safari. U \u0161iroce vysekan\u00e9 krajnice se pasou medv\u011bdi (z 90 % b\u00edlo\u017eravci), p\u0159\u00edmo po asfaltu korzuj\u00ed st\u00e1da bizon\u016f. Losi, jeleni a lan\u011b jsou samoz\u0159ejmost\u00ed.<\/p>\n
Nav\u00edc m\u00e1 tahle d\u00e1lnice odpo\u010d\u00edvadla. Odpo\u010d\u00edvadla se z\u00e1chody a odpadkov\u00fdmi ko\u0161i. Tedy v\u0161echno, co cestovatel bydl\u00edc\u00ed ve sv\u00e9m vozidle pot\u0159ebuje. Jak moc to postr\u00e1d\u00e1me na dal\u0161\u00edm \u00faseku cesty ani nejde popsat\u2026<\/p>\n
Jak skon\u010d\u00ed Rockies, za\u010dne Oil Country. Kolem Edmontonu toho moc nebylo, \u017e\u00e1dn\u00fd speci\u00e1ln\u00ed d\u016fvod se sem \u0161t\u011bhovat byste nena\u0161li. Dokud se nekoplo do zem\u011b a neza\u010dala pr\u0161et ropa. Druh\u00e1 zlatokopeck\u00e1 vlna mohla za\u010d\u00edt.<\/p>\n
Postupn\u011b sm\u011brem na jihov\u00fdchod miz\u00ed stromy a objevuje se pr\u00e9rie. Nekone\u010dn\u00e1 rovina oset\u00e1 obilninami. Mnohdy je zaj\u00edmav\u011bj\u0161\u00ed sledovat mraky na obloze, ne\u017e nem\u011bn\u00edc\u00ed se obzor. V\u00fdjimou jsou jen s\u00fdpky farm\u00e1\u0159\u016f, kter\u00fdm se d\u00edky v\u00fd\u0161ce 20 \u2013 30 metr\u016f \u0159\u00edk\u00e1 \u201ckatedr\u00e1ly pr\u00e9ri\u00ed\u201d.<\/p>\n
Kdy se to auto rozpadne?<\/p>\n
Up\u0159\u00edmn\u011b, u\u017e te\u010f jsme d\u00e1l, ne\u017e jsem doufal. Tahle dod\u00e1vka sjela z v\u00fdrobn\u00ed linky v roce 2002, jako jeden z posledn\u00edch model\u016f Expressu p\u0159ed t\u00edm, ne\u017e dostal novou tv\u00e1\u0159i\u010dku. Od t\u00e9 doby poznala hoooodn\u011b p\u0159es p\u016fl milionu kilmetr\u016f asfaltu.<\/p>\n
Motor zat\u00edm \u0161lape par\u00e1dn\u011b. Pokud mu dop\u0159\u00e1v\u00e1me 16 litr\u016f benz\u00ednu na sto kilometr\u016f, tak si mlask\u00e1 a i ve 120 ho dok\u00e1\u017eete pob\u00eddnout k slu\u0161n\u00e9 akceleraci. Jsou i v\u011bci, co ne\u0161lapou. Nejde st\u00e1hnout jedno ok\u00fdnko, nefunguje r\u00e1dio. A te\u010f ani sv\u011btla. Co\u017e u\u017e je tro\u0161ku probl\u00e9m.<\/p>\n
V\u00fdlety pod hladinu? Minim\u00e1ln\u011b<\/p>\n
Hlavn\u011b se nepotopit a neud\u011blat z dod\u00e1vky ponorku. U\u017e spolu s Karlem \u017eijeme m\u011bs\u00edc na pom\u011brn\u011b omezen\u00e9m prostoru vykol\u00edkovan\u00e9m st\u011bnami Chevyho \u010di stanu. Zat\u00edm to zvl\u00e1d\u00e1me. Jednou jsem \u0159val j\u00e1 na Karlose, jednou sd\u011blil sv\u00e9 dojmy z m\u00e9 osoby od podlahy on mn\u011b.<\/p>\n
Ale t\u011b\u017eko jsem si mohl p\u0159\u00e1t n\u011bkoho lep\u0161\u00edho, proto\u017ee v 95 % \u010dasu najdeme kompromis, se kter\u00fdm jsme oba spokojen\u00ed. Rozhodn\u011b to se mnou nen\u00ed snadn\u00fd, proto\u017ee m\u00e1m dost \u010dasto jasnou p\u0159edstavu, co chci J\u00c1. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Kde bydl\u00edte? Na parkovi\u0161ti<\/p>\n
Se\u0161l\u00e1pneme \u201cru\u010dn\u00ed\u201d brzdu a m\u016f\u017eeme si ustlat. Jen\u017ee, ne v\u0161ude je to ide\u00e1ln\u00ed. Parkr\u00e1t to byla odpo\u010d\u00edvadla, p\u00e1rkr\u00e1t parkovi\u0161t\u011b u d\u00e1lnic. Ve m\u011bstech jsou to betonov\u00e9 plochy p\u0159ed obchody \u0159et\u011bzce Walmart. Tam je to ofici\u00e1ln\u011b povoleno.<\/p>\n
Probl\u00e9m samoz\u0159ejm\u011b je, \u017ee na parkovi\u0161ti si \u010dlov\u011bk nedojde v noci jen tak lehce na z\u00e1chod. \u017de tam jaksi nen\u00ed koupelna. Nemluv\u011b o tom, \u017ee bysme m\u011bli t\u0159eba internet. Tak\u017ee to byl a je trochu punk. Neskute\u010dn\u011b super.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
