If you asked me to sum up Vegas in one word it would be… Crazy! Everything is crazy… From the architecture (there’s a mini Eiffel Tower and Empire State building), interior of the hotels, how bright everything is at night, the geological history and dramatic landscapes, the people, the food, the shopping and last … More Las Vegas Pt.1
After ending LA horse riding in the Hollywood Hills, we got straight into the car and headed onto San Diego. We were really excited about visiting it as we’d seen lots of beautiful pictures on Pinterest, and read great reviews about the zoo online. We stayed at the Bahia Hotel resort, which was in a … More San Diego
After crawling in to Los Angeles along the freeway we arrived into the City of Angels, and headed straight for the Venice Canal historic district. Many movies and TV shows have used the canals as a back drop including White Men Can’t Jump, Falling Down and Speed (admittedly we wanted to see it after watching … More Los Angeles
As we were away for Valentines this year we decided to make it as cheesy as possible, and spend it at Disneyland đ. Disneyland was the first of the Disney Parks to open in 1955, and it’s the only theme park designed and built under the direct supervision of Walt Disney (sadly he passed away before it … More Disneyland
To make our way down to LA from San Fran we had a choice… We could drive down Route 101 which misses out alot of coastline and take around 5 hours, or to take Route 1 which runs along most of the Pacific Coastline of California and takes 7-8 hours. Obviously we went with the … More The Pacific Coast Highway
For our last full day in San Fran we were out nice and early. The day before we had been to see the sea-lions at Pier 39, but there were alot of tourists doing the same thing. So we decided to go back, and hopefully see them when there were fewer people around. And we … More San Francisco Pt.2
We left for JFK apprehensive of busy rush hour traffic on the roads, and arriving at an even busier airport; but we were left pleasantly surprised. So much so that en-route to JFK the traffic was smooth, and James saw a Bald Eagle. This led to me mocking him the rest of the way, but … More San Francisco Pt.1
So our time in New York has come to an end for now (sniff, sniff!) We’re currently on a flight to San Francisco and the plane has wifi, so it seems like a good to finish NYC off before exploring again! Yesterday morning we woke up again at the wonderful time of 5am! We aren’t … More New York, New York (Pt.2)
The last few days have been insane… From emotional goodbyes, to embracing and trying to see as much of New York as possible in a short space of time before boarding another plane. Last week we finished work, and said our goodbyes to family and friends. We soon realised that we had both been a little naive at just … More New York, New York (Pt.1)
