Hilton Woodland Hills & Towers Los Angeles

Ok, So it's this is my first blog haha, The current time in LA is 6:00pm, which mean its 12:00am the next day in Brisbane! I have been awake for 30 hrs and counting!! PHEW!!

Ok, so from the beggining:

STRESS!!! To start of my trip I had a massive mishap at the airport 20 min b4 boarding!! My return ticket was for 27th of May, yet ...

Instead of flying directly to Guatemala City, my cheapest flight was on American, and they flew me to their hub in Dallas Fort Worth before heading south to Guatemala. Nothing particularly noteworthy about the trip. Flying just isn't much fun anymore. They graciously allowed me to check my bags for free and I brown-bagged enough food for two mea...

San Francisco was fantastic, probably one of the first places so far (along with perhaps Flagstaff) we could actually imagine ourselves living in. To be fair though, we were blessed with the best weather they've allegedly had in 20 years. It is famous for its fog but it was blue skies and 100 degrees, not 65, for us. We got a 48 hour pass for an...

Moving on from Utah, we rewarded ourselves with a one-night stopover at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas before heading through the Mojave Desert back to California. It was 105 degrees when we passed the world's largest thermometer in Baker... and it was still getting hotter. When we hit Santa Monica, we unpacked the car and immediat...

Arriving at the airport. Such a drag. They say, no drinks, but they still sell them on the inside...ironic? No more like, Lets make you buy the stuff that kills us and at the same time we make a profit to sell our wars and our debts. 12 hrs on a plane...a nightmare for a health freak...planning ahead and outsmart the system to make it work. Slee...

We landed at LAX at about 9:30am local time, and that's when the trip turned a little less interesting. The airport signage was pretty much non-existent if you wanted to make your way to any terminal other than the one you landed at, and the maps only showed the terminal that you were currently in instead of the whole airport. Easy enough, we'll...

Los Angeles - Day 1 to day 4,



Our first day was an endless one, chasing the sun towards California. Daylight for 27 hours, record beaten. All that daylight and not much if any sleep resulted in some confusion about time and date... We checked in a hostel in hollywood at 9.00 pm, set the alarm for the morning at 8.00 and fell aslee...

As emotion*lly bereft *s I w*s *t le*ving Austr*li*, the difference in the qu*lity of films being shown on Q*nt*s 11 months on from my *rriv*l somewh*t buoyed my spirits. I w*s *bout to do the longest flight of my entire trip but I re*lly needed longer on this p*rticul*r pl*ne. There w*s Bor*t to w*tch, Miss Potter, The Holid*y...* whole he*p of...

For the past two months I have been monitoring an erection. Always start with an attention grabber, that's what they tell you. You see there is a building being erected in Century City, a process that is easily monitored from the window of my 15th Floor office in UCLA's Wilshire Center Building. About two months ago I noticed the iron skeleton o...
