The US of A 🇺🇲

This trip has been full of surreal moments and this was one of them. Within the Peabody Hotel, possibly Memphis' most famous hotel, resides a group of ducks (no idea what you call that). These ducks spend their days in the fountain in the main bar area and by night live on the rooftop.

The ducks are chaperoned between these locations at 11am and 5pm each day by a duckmaster and a red carpet, with literally hundreds of people turning up to watch each time (me included) the ducks take the short walk from the fountain to the elevator.

This madness all started in the 1930's when the drunk General Manager of the time thought it would be funny to put some ducks in the fountain when he stumbled back in from a hunting trip. Almost a hundred years later and the ducks (many times offspring) have never left.Weiterlesen

After succeeding in mission laundry and being turned away for a haircut I took the bus to nearby Sunset Boulevard. This road is full of swanky hotels and in the hills behind it live starts such as Johnny Depp, Christine Aguilera and Avicii's old apartment is somewhere in the cluster of image 6.

Picture 2 shows the Sunset Towers Hotel where the likes of Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra have stayed in the past.

The white apartment block at the back of picture 3 is (I'm almost certain) where I bought an apartment for my GTA V online charachter.Weiterlesen
