Califorrrrrrrrrrrrnia

So many people did not believe my last post... but it was in fact true. I'm now sitting in my hotel at Embassy Suites in Lake Tahoe working... pretty cool eh.

The past few days have been pretty awesome. I woke up Saturday morning and our flight was landing in San Fran. We took the BART into town and found our Hilton Hotel pretty easily. Our room was bad ass with a balcony that overlooked downtown and the beds were great as always at hiltons. Started the day by taking a cab to Fisherman's Wharf... walked around a lot and saw the Sea Lions and they were pretty crazy if you ask me. Ate some awesome crab and great clam chowder. After that we rented bikes and rode an 8 mile journey around the bay and over the golden gate bridge. It was incredibly windy and biking up hills is 10 times harder than i ever thought it would be. Shot out to any one that bikes a lot... because it is not as easy as i thought. After that fun journey we took a ridiculously long fairy ride back to Pier 41... dropped off our bikes and headed to china town. The restaurant we ate at was so so... and the food was ok. I'm pretty sure there is a good chance the chicken was cat... and the pork was really dog. Not that i would know, but .. yeah. After that we went back to our hotel... it was pretty late and we were all pretty beat (my ass hurt really bad from the bike seat... all of ours did). We ended up just staying in that night... very relaxing.

Sunday we woke up and made the fun drive to Napa Valley. Wow, it was awesome. We went to a few wineries... saw some pretty landscapes. Ate some food... then headed towards Lake Tahoe. We got a little lost and i failed as navigator somewhat... but it ended up creating a very scenic route... and we got to stop at In And Out burger. Pretty tasty. We ended up getting to Harrah's around 945 PM... checked in and got a sweet upgrade to a bad ass room with a huge bath tub that had jets. Some how, all three of us fit into it and relaxed for about an hour. After that, we decided we needed to go out. Went down to the casino... played some black jack, dance at the club a little, had some drinks, and then all the sudden it was 230 am. Awesome. Probably should go to bed since I had to wake up in 4 hours for a conference call (time difference). Passed out pretty quickly.

Today... I've mostly been working and enjoying the view. It's been great and i recommend it highly. Pictures will be posted when i get back if any good ones come out.

Peace.
