Leave for Auckland tonight. Just finishing Packing and stuff. Listening to Pink Floyd on the radio. its hot for November here. hope everyone likes the new photos,

more interesting news when i arrive in the south pacific....Oh i saw the Oosterdam Holland America cruise liner in San Diego and also the warship replica they used in Master and Commander! amazing to see it!

Santa Monica was a good sight yesterday. Beautiful weather, it really is a cool place. except i feel sorry for all the homeless or Bums as they are called here which is mean. But at least its not bad weather to be homeless in. Off to San Diego this morning. Going to explore part of a desert national park.

Arrived in LA. With my friend Russ. Had a Carl's Jr burger. Probably going to San Diego Friday. Also plans for Death Valley and joshua tree too. Very tired, running on adrenaline, speech slurring....
