Weekend Side Trips

Went across the pond to visit some friends.


They fed me very well. Mmmmm...treacle sponge with custard :)


Off to our nation's capital...Oh Canada...


The sens actually won this one (take that montreal!) though they nearly blew it and had to come back in overtime. Talk about stressful.

Los Angeles

Welcome to LA!
As you can see the weather was not stellar on our first day.


Sites to See
The Hollywood Sign


The Houses on Mulholland Drive


Don't forget to leave your bows and arrows at home!


Universal Studios - yes it's from a distance but $60 each to visit wasn't very enticing...


Santa Monica Beach and Pier



Venice Beach


The Queen Mary Hotel


The Shipyards of LA - crazy big and crazy busy...all of these boxes say "HONDA"


The Oil Rigs by Newport Beach


Balboa Island



Laguna Beach/Dana Point


Of course no trip is complete without the prerequisite food shot. Voila: P.F Changs happy hour in Santa Monica near the 3rd street shopping district. Apparently these are appetizer sized portions. Yummy!
