San Francisco 2012 - Day 2

Today I leave London Heathrow to San Francisco, apparently its about 13 degrees C over in the city at the moment, not sure on the snow report in heavenly.

The flight was delayed for an hour and half to 12.35pm, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem for us.

The flight to San Francisco was a long one 11 hours straight, managed to kill a few hours by watching Cowboys and Aliens and Bolt, as well as two books... the food was pretty crap too so I was starving when I got off the plane!

Baggage collected then it was off to get the rental car, we got Chevrolet 4x4 red thing, its pretty darn cool to be fair.

Since the first night were spending in the city of San Fran, well its pretty manic here but I suppose thats what US cities are like!

After finding some food to chow down its finally off to bed, completely drained of energy. California is about 8 hours behind the UK so these posts will be at odd times of the day even now back at home it would be about 3:35am and I haven't had a wink of sleep since about 6:00am UK time. The bed is calling my name!

Until tomorrow!!

Boston/Stowe (14th February 2015) - Day 3

Image
Today we set off for Stowe! Location: Boston, Massachusetts  Weather: Sunny/Cloudy  Temp: -12°  We had the afternoon left in Boston yesterday which we spent most of it in bars (I'm not complaining). Since there is a 5 hour time difference sleeping was a little odd, managed to wake up at 3am and then managed to get up at 6:30am which is around 11:30am in the UK. So kind of fits my sleeping pattern right down to a tee!  I managed to get up just as the sun was rising! Being me i managed to take a few snaps (few being lots) After I finished taking loads of photos we went down for a coffee (after a shower of course) thats where i managed to finish off the blog post that i was suppose to send out last night. We didn't hang around in the hotel for long, before I knew it we were out the door and back to the airport to get the rental car. We managed to get a Ford ...

Hawaii 2012 (30th May) - Day 3

Off to Kauai in Hawaii today!  Well My sleep was pretty amazing, air con that actually works and a bed that didn't suck! Wonderfullll! Anyway woke up about 8 ish this morning, had a quick sunbath by the pool before going down for a feast of a breakfast! (was pretty awesome) After some filling breakfast we headed off to the airport, (for a world famous airport it really wasn't they impressive) yeah i admit the place was HUGE but inside it has nothing to do! (kinda like the Tardis but the other way round,yeah.) The flight was about 5 hours long, so wasn't as bad as the trip from Heathrow to LAX but still kinda bored! All i can say is thank god i bought mine craft on my mac, oh and my iPod (lifesaver!) Arriving at Kauai airport was weird, the place is so chilled out! The whole airport was made of wood!!! WOOD!! So yeah they was cool.  After we grabbed our bags and other rubbish we brought along with us we went to pic up our rental car, we have a Chrysler Miniva...

Its ski time 2 (This time i mean it) Location: Stowe, Vermont  Weather: Sunny/Cloudy Temp: -10°C  Im feeling much better (thank you for asking), although I'm writing this late at night when I'm tired and have to get up early again for more skiing action so i apologies in advance if this post seems a little rubbish!  The weather was pretty much perfect, i mean yeah the starting temp was around -22 but it warmed up! Oh i forgot breakfast! i had leftover pizza from last night. (Super interesting i know) Anyway, the snow was awesome although there was a few hard packed and powdery patches around but nothing you can't get your edges into!  We didn't spend too long on the mountain as i've managed to pass on my germy germs onto my parents, (best son ever!) We got a few hours in bare in mind that this was my first day so we all had to get our rhythm back! And yeah it didn't take long, one easy run and I'm back in the zone (Insert shade...
