everything is bigger here

In this country they have a saying "Everything is bigger in TEXAS." True. But it is true not only for Texas. As I've mentioned earlier, we all know that this is one of the wealthiest countries in the world, the sun and moon are bigger here (of course it is some kind of optical illusion), but that's not all. Can you imagine trees that are so big that you need 10 or more people to hug them? Those are sequoias! And they do exist... not in my imagination, but in reality.
I've been to Sequoia National Park during my time in California. It was like in a fairy-tale. First of all there was a lot of snow in that park... although outside the park it was like summer. Second, it was so misty, so everything looked as if it was not real. I was amazed.
So the thing is, these trees grow only in the US. Here we go again, the biggest out of the biggest and again on the territory of the States. :))
