VEGAS BABY!


So we went to Las Vegas to film two possible shows, one about some woman working at some fashion-store, the name which I cant spell and then another about a guy opening his own business... (he kinda bought a porsche to his designer who lets his gold-digging girlfriend drive it) and he's having some feud with his wife. It's complicated to put it mildly.

I worked the camera for a couple of hours and also kinda functioned as errand boy before ordering room-service and crashing in bed watching Mario Puzo's "The Godfather".

Today we arrived back in L.A around 4-isch and tonight im just going to chill out, take it easy, relax. Have some dinner, play som PS3 and go to bed. Tommorow I should hopefully be meeting with Gunnnar Nordström which would be awesome.

Went on a one hour cruise around the San Francisco bay area today. Got some good pictures of Alcatraz, SF skyline and of course the Golden Gate bridge. Though in the afternoon I felt like I came down with a fever and have spent most of the time after resting/sleeping. Tomorrow its off to Los Angeles where I'll spend apx 1 week. though I might be heading to Vegas for a day or too. Now its time to try to sleep that fever off. I promise a picture of the golden gate bridge before checking out tommorow (11am pacific, 8pm gmt+1)

So now I've left New York / New Jersey. There I got to watch two Rangers games: @ Devils and vs. Capitals. Now I'm in a Hostel in SF called Green Tortoise... its quite fun although it's a very quick stop.

Yesterday I went down to fisherman's wharf, basically its a small shopping mall and it has connection to all sightseeing stuff and also the boats to Alcatraz. Today I'll go on some round-trip ferry and get some more pictures (which I can upload for now, since the Hostel has free wifi)





Arite people, I've been bad at updating this. But there's just too much going on, and I dont always have access to internet so bear with me. I'll try to improve.

On friday, Steve and I went to Philly and checked out the Italian market which was quite dead. Not to surprising since it was about -6/7 degrees celsius. I got my first Starbucks coffee for the trip, and also the most important part: I got my first ever cheese-steak, american wit (with onions and not too much cheese). Brilliant lunch, and it made me wonder why the h*ll we dont have it here in Europe.

It took about 3 seconds from ordering to getting the steak and the line of about 12 people were done and got their food in within a minute... beat that McDonalds.

Got up a little later than on the friday, around 9-isch. Had some delicious pancakes and coffee for breakfast before playing ping-pong with Steve and his youngest son Joseph. After that, there was a very prestigious Wii-golf competition in which I finished second. Then it was the main-event for the day: ice-skating. It must have been 2 years since I was on ice... it was very woobly at start but gradually improved. It felt great being back on Ice, even if it was in rental skates and with about 80 other people.

Well today we went to Ellis island and Libery Island... man Ellis island was great, such an intersting place and very presented as you got to follow the steps of the immigrants with pictures and history. Absolutely great museum, got some really good pictures that I hope to upload within in a foreseeable future.

Tommorow's big event is certainly the Devils - Rangers game in Prudential Center. Can Rangers forget their 10-2 loss against Dallas? Will Devils bounce back from their 1-3 loss to L.A? And will maybe Sean Avery be back in the Rangers jersey?

So, its 8:17 am here in the US right now. A long day of travel was followed by a great dinner, some NHL hockey and a good nights sleep. The plan for the day is to go buy a decent camera and then go in to Philly and just do some sightseeing and of course have a cheese-steak. Then tonight we might go see the Trenton Devils (ECHL) play, we'll see about that.

I'll also have to buy an adapter/converter so that I can use my laptop and upload pictures etc. Well the first update is now officialy up.
