London to LA




I realize that by the time this gets posted that I will already be back in LA.

My stupid phone just crashed and erased what I wrote and now that I'm on the plane I don't want to rewrite it all. Cliffnotes version it is.

We went through check-in and got put into a jail like area until we boarded the plane. We went through a "random search" because of Poon's dodgy eyes and Milo looking guilty.

The plane we are on is awesome. A340 with movies galore. "Where The Wild Things Are" breaks me. Watched 10mins of that movie and was ready to strangle the stupid little kid. I hate him just as much as Nurse Betty!

Back in LA

Just landed. Still on the plane but we're all alive. I watched 5 movies. Fame, Armored, Astro Boy, Up in the air, and Paper Heart. All good movies except Armored and Astro Boy. Armored is terrible and Astro Boy is boring. Well time to get ready to get off the plane and through customs.

Last Post from overseas

As much fun as it was in Ireland. This is our last night here. We head to the airport for a 7:50AM flight and will be back on US soil by the afternoon Sunday.

See ya then!

First day in Ireland

So we just got back to the hotel after visiting the Guinness Factory and Jameson Distillery. Poon is dieing. Not from the alcohol but from dehydration. Apparently he doesn't know that you are supposed to drink water. Go figure.

During the Jameson tour, there was a movie portion of it. Within 2 minutes, Poon fell asleep and then Milo fell asleep 1 minute later. I didn't even want to go to the Jameson Distillery, yet here I was, the only one awake. I had to hit Poon every couple of minutes cause he started snoring REALLY LOUD. There was one part where the movie got really quiet and Poon let out a snore that filled the entire room. I started laughing and then hit him. Good times.

Well I need to go back to the room now. I'm using the "Business Center" for internet. We are going to call it a night early today so that we can drive across the country for the Blarney Stone. Woot! I'm excited for that.

Oh yeah, Milo almost killed us today. We are driving on the left side of the road now. Milo likes to hug the left side of the road and almost hit this garbage truck. I was sitting shotgun and thought I was going to die. It was SOOO SCARY!!! I don't think Milo even knew how close we were to getting in an accident. We were literally an inch or two from hitting this parked truck. Maybe I'll drive tomorrow.

Goodbye London, Hello Dublin

Well its 6:10 am and we are packing to get on a plane to Dublin. Can't write much because I'm rushed for time but just wanted to let whoever is reading this that we are no longer in London. We'll be back to the States soon enough and then back to the grind. Hopefully, we can make the last two days spectacular. However, seeing as how we are going to the Guinness Factory, I'm not sure how much Poon and Milo will remember. We'll see. Ha ha. Till next time.

Fish and Chips!

The restaurant we went to...















Plaice Fish and Chips















Cod Fish and Chips















Skate Fish and Chips

Fish and Chips are good, but i think we can eat other food....it's not good to eat nothing but fried food all day...that is all for now...

Casino or Arcade?



Let this be a lesson to you. You can spend 140 Pounds at the Casino and come home with nothing or you can spend 10 pounds at the arcade and come home with 4 keychains. Both take up an hour of your day. FYI, the arcade has hot Japanese girls playing Time Crisis 4 and the Casino, well mostly dudes and old ladies.

Muppets are dirty




So I'm sitting here at intermission in Avenue Q. I didn't know what kind of musical it was but I do now... This is defintely not for the kiddies. It's really good so far. "The internet is for porn!" I would definitely recommend it to everyone, especially those that don't typically like musicals. Well back to the show. Then to a pub for fish & chips and a beer. Eww... beer but I'm in London so I'll have to drink one... maybe two. Probably one.. Ha ha.

Avenue Q!!!

Got tickets for Avenue Q tonight. It starts in a little over 2 hours from now. I'm excited. On a side note, they have Casinos here in London!!! Blackjack here I come.

Day 2

Just woke up. To my surprise, Milo and Poon have agreed to go to a musical here in London. In fact, it wasn't even my idea. They mentioned it and Of course I said yes. I'm leaning towards Avenue Q but they play a lot of stuff in London. Who knew London was such a happening place to be? ...Probably everyone actually but not me. Ha ha. Off to shower and find breakfast now.
