The big London update

I’ve been meaning to get around to posting something new, but alas I’ve just not had the time or internet stability yet. I decided to punch it and pay 3 pounds for a day of internet, so I can tend to my email garden, and figure things out, etc. Anyways;
Last Thursday marked my departure from [...]

New York Again

Yesterday we didn’t do much. We went back to Georgetown to fix up a bill which had been charged twice, back to Chinatown for some Fuddruckers. Nathan got food poisoning, I got a sore throat, so good times are unraveling. Only in NY for a few days, will probably spent a day at the New [...]

Chicago to a close

Quick rundown;
Monday I went out to downtown, past Grant Park to the Field Museum, saw Sue the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Bushman, some taxidermy, and mummies. Diana organised me to meet her mother and friend, and after the museum we had some traditional Chicago Deep Dish Pizza, and my god, it was fucking excellent. I still approve [...]

Chicago (update) and Lollapalooza

I’m in Chicago now, landed about an hour ago. Just sorting myself out for Lollapalooza !
Yesterday in New York, did Liberty and Ellis Island. Not that impressed, you have to book months ahead for the Statue Tickets and wait 3 hours in line to get up to the Crown, and I don’t think [...]

But he’s in Depeche Mode!

Today went on ultimate tourist rampage, went to Little Italy for lunch, did Empire State Building for the view and Madison Square Garden for a gig.
Little Italy was fun. Walking around, I heard it was much better at night, so probably tomorrow night I will check it out. It’s also next to Chinatown so had [...]

New York City 3 4 something k-five? All Points West

Haven’t written in a while, as there’s nothing to really write about. So far in NYC we’ve walked through Manhattan a lot, going down to Times Sq a lot, through to Central Park. We did visit Central Park Zoo, not much to write about. They have polar bears in the open, and it’s like 29 [...]

New York City 2

For a city that ‘never sleeps’, everything closes on a weekday at 1am, with a few exception of some places being 24 hours or bars until 4am. I had a massive sleep in yesterday, did my laundry at a traditional chinese laundry and walked around the city at night. Finally got around to doing White [...]

New York City

First impressions of NYC: Parts of it ghetto, the subway is dirty but amazingly works, Times Square is massive and exactly what you expect… Tomorrow I think I will do some laundry and check out Chapel of Sacred Mirrors. Will upload photos tomorrow.

Vegas Dump

The internet at our hostel cost too much…
We landed in las vegas yesterday afternoon, a sharp change in temperature, from the windy cold 19 to hot hot heat of 32. The final day of SF was spent moving around Union Square, known to the locals for it’s shopping. I had advertured around before but never [...]
