Amsterdaming – Drunken Buildings

Got up this morning and rented some bikes to cruise around the city. Great way to get around, you never have to wait for trains or buses, just hop on and you’re there in a few minutes. Amsterdam’s so small all the main sights are within 10 minutes of each other by bike. I wanted […]

Berlin to Amsterdam

Last thoughts on Berlin…. What a great place.

Germany vs. Argentina

Today was all about The Game.

Tourist Day in Berlin

Took a little bus tour around the city today to hit the major sights. A couple annoying guys hopped on at the last minute and were really loud and talking during the english portions of the commentary.

Super-Tourists!!

Hopped the double decker tour bus today to just travke around town and get the commentary.

Paris Day 2.5 / Catacombs / Arc de Triomphe

The internet connection has been a bit lacking the last few days…. Hopped over this morning to the Catacombs to check out millions of dead people.

Art, Hunchbacks, and the Eiffel Tower

Today I woke up about 10:30 from a dead sleep and just layed in bed for another 45 minutes. Guess I was tired!

Montmartre

After getting from Gare du Nord to the hotel in Montmartre I think it was a good choice.

Tourists

Played tourist today and just traveled around the city taking in some sights. Hopped on and off the bus until lunch when we hit Nando’s in Soho.

The Start of Europa Tour 2006

Off to Europa! First London for the week, then the train to Paris, then to Berlin where we’ll be in the middle of the World Cup, and then to Amsterdam for that last bit.

Win, Win, Lose, Win, Lose, Win, Lose… Steak Dinner For Me!

Horse racing! Always bet on the Irish horse. They always kick our California horses asses. You’d never know gambling’s illegal in California. Somebody should probably tell the Indian casinos, lotteries and race tracks. I arrived too late to bet on the first race but I was on fire for the next seven! Aw yeah, steak […]

Kauai – Day Eight

This morning I had to get up at 6:00 to get to Hanalei Bay by 6:45. The catamaran trip around to Na Pali is on. It was cancelled on Wednesday because of a boat problem. The night before I charged all my batteries and got packed to check out of the hotel bright and early. […]

Kauai – Day Seven

Slower and slower I get… just sat around today waiting for the sunset I suppose. Did some laundry inbetween lunch and dinner and drove along the coast up to Hanalei Bay as the clouds looked like they were going to put on a good show. Lot’s of people gathered down on the beach with a […]

Kauai – Day Six

[HELICOPTER TOUR VIDEO] Suffering from a few mosquito bites tonight but not nearly like I did in Fiji. I had to drive down to the town of Hanapepe today to catch the helicopter flight around the island. There’s a small airstrip down there that they operate the tours from. The difference with this company is […]

Kauai – Day Five

[CHASING FISH AROUND VIDEO] I suck at relaxing, but today I finally slowed down a bit. Hung out at a couple beaches and did a little snorkeling. Low low key. First went to beach called Tunnels up in Hanalei and snorkled around in the very shallow reef. I’m not sure if the tide was or […]

Kauai – Day Four

[X-TREME SEA TURTLE VIDEO] Nice and sunny today so I headed over to a place called Queen’s Bath. It’s a lava shelf that has created a pool for swimming. Next to it though was the real show. There was a green sea turtle just hanging out and eating off the sides of the walls of […]

Kauai – Day Three

Today’s goal was to tour around Waimea Canyon. Basically a mini Grand Canyon. Left about 8 this morning and it’s now 6pm so it was a 10 hour day and I’m beat and need some food. The ride up was really winding and if you’re driving it’s not a lot of fun. You can’t exactly […]

Kauai – Day Two

Basically it was a dumping ground for bottles and such and over the years it’s smoothed all the pieces and there is a lot of glinty colorful sand in the area…. About dinner time I was so hungry I stopped of at the market to pick up some stuff but the lure of chinese food next door was too much for me.

Kauai – Day One

I run over and grab it an head over to the car rental counter which is empty because all the rest of the suckers are still waiting for their bags!… Not the usual muggy South Pacific island kinda thing to do.Anyway, I get to the hotel and the lobby is empty and the woman at the counter tells me even though I’m early for check-in my room is ready and off I go.
