My week in LA
Hi Gang. What a week. I have managed to stay pretty much out of harm's way and kept busy for the last 5 days. Lots of meetings in LA and hooking up with old and new friends. I even managed to get hung up for 36 hours with a nasty head cold. ...

Heading home to California
... debacle I wasn't ready for the possibility of having to sleep on some random floor -- or who knows where. Made it into Los Angeles without any more hitches and feel into the comfortable beds at the airport Renaissance hotel. Vacation over, ...

We arrived in los angeles on the 22nd july. we are spending 5 nights at a hostel which is a bit away from downtown la and hollywood. we are then spending 4 nights at a hostel at venice beach. The hostel at venice beach is really nice and just a short walk ...
The journey begins!
Mom is in the air on the way from Indianapolis and we're just about to head out the door to go pick her up at LAX. Of course Chris is beside himself (as am I) since we haven't seen her in over a year now. So far, according to our Worldmate Travel ...
Santa Barbara to L.A.
After a freezing cold night in the motel, we left Santa Barbara and drove down the coast back to L.A. Today we have to return the Mustang. On the way out of the motel, Matthew spotted a lizard stuck in a plastic bin so we rescued it. We stopped for ...
The Lorikeets Have Landed
We are now in Hidden Valley, Monrovia, a suburb on the eastern fringe of LA. Within the cosy, steep-sided valley nestles Bob's ranch, complete with Mayhem the cat (who lives outside). We are here for a week, care of homeexchange.com. The trip was ...
Last post
This is my last post. i never really thought ahead to this last one until this morning. I guess I also never really thought I would be so honest in some of these posts and I thank you for giving me the space to do that. But really my trip and our lives ...
Helllloooooooooooooooo Hollywood ;-0
I can't contain my excitment. FYI all blogs are dne but no time to check them over so will be done in due course ...
Universal Studios
I dag ska vi besöka Universal Studios och eftersom vi bor så nära har vi bestämt oss för att promenera dit. Jörgen hade bestämt att vi skulle "hänga på låset" och det var faktiskt en upplevelse eftersom de börjar varje dag med en speciell ...
Dogs in bags!!
All those hours in the flying tin can weren't too bad - I was down the rear end of the plane near the toilets where there are only two seats and it can be quite bumpy. The first groan came when it was announced that we had a 1/2 hour delay due to a ...
On my way...
SUCH AN EARLY MORNING...left our house at 5 am and drove in LA rush hour traffic for the first time ever. I cannot imagine why people would do this everyday. It took me 3+hrs to get to the airport (which is only about 70 mi). Things are ...
Getty Museum for free
Für das Getty Museum in Los Angeles braucht man keinen Eintritt zu zahlen. Allerdings kostet das Parken schlappe 15 US$. Wie schon bei Elvis und beim Mt Rushmore erfolgreich angewendet sind wir also erstmal in die Nähe gefahren und wollten dann zum ...
...on the road, again.
I got a ride. It turned out to be not only to LA but to New Mexico, on the Mexican boarder. Bingo. Traveling with a guy called Ted. Plan: Chill out and have fun. Might go rafting. Started reading Crime and Punishment today- fantastic. Like an austin ...
Los Angeles
Got up early and jumped on a hot and sweaty Greyhound bus for Los Angeles. It was a decent amount of travel time, but LA was where our Contiki tour would depart, and we checked into our hotel upon arriving. I think at this stage we were still ...
Just a quick stop!
Inbetween New York and Honolulu we had to change planes here. I spent about 3 hours in the airport and then we were off ...
It's the 4th of July!!!
And so it arrives - the most depressing day of any trip - the final day. As I had a late flight I still had pretty much a full day to entertain myself with. I hadn't bothered setting an alarm as I'd had a late night and not being in a hotel I ...
Truth in the southland not left unsaid
My last night in Queenstown was uneventful other than the fact that I was sharing it with great company. It was almost as if we both wanted to pretend that I was not leaving the next day, acting as if all was normal with just the open road ahead of us ...
To Live and Kill Time in LA
Made it to Los Angeles International Airport and now I have to find a way to make 8 hours go by quickly! I arrived around 3:30 p.m. local time and my Qantas flight to Sydney doesn't go until 11:50 p.m. This will not be fun or easy. I got my bag, exited ...
Californication
So here we are, the good ol' US of A. Both of us knackered from the flight and the first thing we had to do was hire a car and then navigate our way from the airport upto our motel in Santa Clarita. I had the unfortunate job of doing that and took the ...
Second - CaliforniaLand
Good morning campers... So yesterday was actually Saturday the 17th, so I got the previous pod's date wrong. I have corrected it - I blame a blend of Jet lag, senility and lack of sleep - (up to 11:00pm both nights here). California land is as big ...
Final Greyhound bus trip from SF to Vega
... was to change that, but not in a bad way. Whilst waiting for my bus from San Francisco which would take me to Las Vegas via Los Angeles, I met this huge guy who was quite chatty and we seemed to get on well, so sat together on the bus. Little did I know ...
Getting Ready!
Looking forward to our trip! Just packing and wrapping things up with school and home before we leave ...
1. Airports as Spaceports-Reveling in Civilization
Airports fascinate and excite me like few other facilities on Earth. They have since I was a kid - nay, from birth - like maybe the instant the doctor slapped my arse I cleared my throat, did my first midair inversion situp and said, "You - knock that ...
Downtown LA – Als Tourist auf Abwegen
