L.A ... Lame As!

Ok ... so on the plan for the trip ... I was stopping off in L.A for 3 days in between flights from London to New Zealand! I thought this was a perfect chance to stay just outside of Hollywood and have a good look around! The Sea View Hotel is where I stayed ... just one block away from Manhatten Beach! The view from my hotel room was awesome and the people, scenery and atmosphere was truly stunning! 















This pier was stunning ... at the end of the walkway was a building which has tanks in so that you could touch sharks and other ' little fish ' at night over the xmas season with the sun setting behind it, this was a favorite spot for locals and visitors!















Myself on the walkway above the beach ... heading down to what became my local ' The Tavern ' ... good food is all I can say, cant comment about the beer as its 21 to drink ... hmph!



















I love this picture ... just because its such a beautiful evening, the sun is setting, and there is a giant christmas tree sat in the middle of the walkway ... I think I got sunburnt that day aswel!













I said the sun set here was stunning ... I wasnt lying!













The photo doesnt do it justice, but this was amazing ... the building I previously talked about with light to decorate it as a tree ... it really was hard to believe it was christmas during the day in L.A but at night it was great!















Ahhhh ... Hollywood and in all seriousness what a let down! Ok yeh, in the movies and on T.V its awesome ... beautiful area, stunning women, money everywhere, people smiling all the time! In reality: Stuck up bastards, shit weather, a smell of fumes which makes you sick in the mouth! Although this is my opinion on a bad day, I would suggest people to go for a look just to say you have been there!















Ok ... it wasnt a total let down, as we were stood in the pouring rain, we spotted Hooters across the street, Hollywood should thank these beautiful girls for keeping smiles on mens faces!

Next up - Auckland, New Zealand ...

Ireland 08!

Ok ... so me and the Manx boys decided one night down the pub ... ' Lets go to Ireland and watch the Northwest 200 ' ... ' Ok'
These are just several pictures from the trip ... I had over 200 but I'm not going to put all those up 
in a hurry! 













Ok ... so this is all the Manx Boys with our pints of the Guiness outside Joeys Bar in Ireland!  The bloke in the middle with his wife approached us after looking at our t-shirts ... he informed us that he lived in France and owned his own pub called ... La Manx - awesome! 













(L-R) Phil, TK, Dave and Myself on the boat approaching Ireland!



















This guy was crazy ... look at the size of his bike and how much stuff he has packed on it, now image riding that all the way from Holland to Ireland .. thats passion!



















Dave and Pig drinking the only drink you should have in Ireland .... 













...  which we all had plenty of! 



















My favorite photo of the whole trip ... Dave and Phil coming down the bridge steps at the train station that we made come to a stand still and dead silence after singing and using our hooters ... good times!

P.S - Its on the calender again for next year ... and I have a feeling it could be more mayhem!
