LA Day One
26 April 2017, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
Well we staying in the iconic Venice beach! We hit a cool little one bedroom apartment basically 20 meters from the beach. Day one we walked the 5 or so km from our apartment to Santa Monica and the famous Pier!

Man we saw a re-run of the fruit cakes in Vegas popularly named the Venice freak show in our walk!

Buskers, cyclists, rollerbladers, muscle men, gymnasts, everlasting sand, peculiar people.... total eclectic mix of personalities, ages and shapes and sizes......

Pretty much people watched solidly for the whole walk as we took in an entirely different city!

We had dinner in a chick little Italian restaurant over looking the promenade in Santa Monica which as always provides entertainment and value.

Think our senses have returned to normal after leaving the over drive of Vegas !!!!

Looking forward to what LA brings xxBaca selengkapnya

LA Hop on and Hop off Tour
26 April 2017, Amerika Serikat ⋅ 🌙 19 °C
We were successful in our plight to master the hop on and hop off bus after the terrible attempt in San Francisco. Yay we did it !!!

Toured through Santa Monica, Beverley Hills and Hollywood today.

Some shirt facts of the day if I am remember them

The walk of fame is 15 blocks long

Oj simpsons home has been remodeled and the street number changed by new owners to avoid tourists... everyone still knows where it is and the bus driver was not convinced he is guilty 😳

The farmers markets were amazing as was the little Parisian cafe we had lunch in complete with grab your own blankets to lay on the grass and enjoy the sunshine.... was very cool

The Beverley hills shield is only in 5 locations - and is
copy righted.

In each street on Beverley Hills they have been allocated a different species of tree for the front of each home in the street ... themed in each street. fire hydrants have been painted silver here as they more appropriate for Beverley hills 🤔

Beverley hills separate from LA as is Santa Monica

People were Walking their dogs in Prams?!?!?

We saw
Fox studios
Sunset blvd
Sunset strip
Rodeo drive
Chinese Theatre
Walk of Fame
Hollywood Iconic Sign
viper Room and so forth and so more !!

Exhausted we found a quaint little Peruvian restaurant for Tea and enjoyed an early night :)Baca selengkapnya

Last Day LA
27 April 2017, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Happiness is giving to others without expecting anything in return ❤💕 this is how I feel about LA.

Today we people watched and enjoyed the sites close to home. A lazy 16km tandem ride along the beach amongst other riders, roller skaters, walkers, runners and skate Boarders! Felt amazing and free.

Breakfast at Santa Monica and then back to explore Marina Del Ray and The Venice Canals and finding the wall art scattered around the place ...... pretty much then spent the Arvo people watching (our self named gigantor back at Muscle Beach🤗), talking about life and our future plans ❤ and genuinely feeling grateful for all we have in life and for the wonderful memories these past few week has given us together.

If i can download the homeless pianist here, watch it. And if you know chad you know what probs happened next. Warmed my heart.

Next stop ......Baca selengkapnya

That time you get to go First Class
27 April 2017, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C
We were so lucky and grateful today to be upgraded to First Class for the 6 hr flight to Hawaii.

We were like school kids so excited and amazing what a bit of thank you and kindness can give you! Our host was the best :) and even loaded us up with free drinks for our stay and tips on Hawaii.

It was amazing to be able to lie down and sleep on a flight and pee without queuing hahha !!! No more close calls!!

Today is a dream come true for Chad :) I'm so excited for him to be in Hawaii. And making this happen for him makes me smile and happy to the core ! He even got a swim in at the beach today!

And he left me a little love note :) for my collection haha

Pretty much going to run ourselves ragged ... have 30 hrs to sleep on the way home!

Aloha :)Baca selengkapnya

Kona - Big Island
29 April 2017, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
Up at 4am this morning or thereabouts ready for a quick flight to Big Island, Hawaii. This island can fit all other islands of Hawaii within its perimeter thus its name.

So I'll share with you some facts I learnt today ....

The view of Waikiki on take off was super cool :) and flew over diamond head crater as well. Then landing on Kona was surprised to see the amount of volcanic rock covering the island near he airport from previous lava flow. This from lava flowing dating back to 1801

Big Island is the youngest Island being 800,000 years old and has 5 volcanos located on it. There are two completely different weather systems from the east to the west. 25 inches vs 130 inches of rain !

The haze seen around the island is due to VOG volcanic gas or sulphur dioxide coming from the Island

Our tour guide Sun was awesome and so so informative on everything cultural, ecological and touristy of the Island....

We discovered they do macadamia nuts in multiple of different flavours including spam.....

Spam .... the Hawaiian steak .... who would have thought

Two different sorts of volcanic rock ... I'll attach pictures as I can't spell it haha

2500 degrees fareinheit when it comes out as it cools to 1600 degrees fareinheit it starts to look like AA volcanic rock

Coconuts aren't native to Hawaii

You could sneak home some lava rock from the goddess of fire however fables say you will have bad luck and people have posted rock back before

Population of big island is 198,000
Honolulu 1 million people

80 feet tall / 24 meters rainbow falls

Longest lava Tube in the national park is 23 miles long in this park . Location has not been disclosed as at yet

Kilauea is the only volcano in the world experiencing 2 eruptions at the same time

Most of the beaches on Big Island are made of Black sand - it is made of course volcanic rock. As lava is pouring into the ocean it breaks it into smaller pieces and the ocean wears it down even more and it releases a naturally formed gem stone.
Big Island also has 1 of only 4 in the world green sand beaches - (emerald colour) big island and only one white sand beach.

The Banyan tree is just one tree but as the branches/leaves hangout out touch the fertile ground it makes roots and forms another trunk

Don't we all feel smarter now !!Baca selengkapnya
