Tras visit Asbury Park, as well as the stone pony, at the beginning of our coast-to-coast road trip through the United States and Canada, we follow the path of Bruce Springsteen by New Jersey and we go to Rumson, about 45/50 kilometers from the aforementioned Asbury Park.

Why precisely Rumson? The ineffable Bruce lives in this area, although no one knows for sure where his residence is.

It is said that the boss has several mansions New Jersey, but for security reasons it is not known which ones they are, nor which ones they may be in.

Rumson It is a large residential area near New York, with really spacious houses (preferably mansions), most with the flag (don't forget!), surrounded by lots of vegetation and green areas.

Most without fences and without separation of the gardens from the neighbors. Beautiful area to live.

From Rumson We're going to Freehold, place where he grew up Bruce Springsteen. Former working class city, it has evolved into a town typical american, residential and very pleasant to reside.

We walked through the town and saw a soldiers memorial residents of the town who died in the various conflicts in which the United States has been involved.

En Freehold we also had some beers budweisers (Buds) On Federici pizzeria, whose owners are the family of the deceased Danny Federici, Member of the And Street Band.

We arrived at the hotel around 21 p.m., after getting lost for half an hour on one of the many highways. Sometimes the GPS is not completely clear and we do not understand it.

We have named the voice that gives us directions from the GPS as Maggie. In the end we will really become friends Maggie and all the initial misunderstandings were happily overcome and we came to understand each other perfectly.

We have also baptized our car as Potomac and, familiarly, we call him Potoo.

We arrived at the hotel really exhausted. We had dinner in the room, connected to the Internet and booked the Washington hotel for a couple of days later.
