San Francisco was over. We continued our migration south. After hearing many good things, we stopped over for a night in Santa Barbara. This town was amazing. After a quick walk along the beach, stopping at the skate park for a quick scope of the local tallent, we headed back to our parking spot and got changed in preperation for a night out. It started with drinks at the Sandbar followed by a big night at The Savoy nightclub. The next morning would see us take a...

As expected our hairdresser bailed on the sturgeon fishing. Do we headed for San Fran down the 101 along the Oregon coast. Amazing scenery the entire way day. Unfortunately it seems as though the rain is following us. Or even the snow. It was strange seeing snow right down by the beach. Very long drive so we stopped in Arcata for the night. Had a few drinks at the pub and got some rest. The next morning we had a few ours left to get to SF. Arrived around lunch ti...

The season was just about over for us. We packed up our gear and set off for some more exciting adventures. Quentin, Leo and I were graced with Dave's presence over the next week.

Work has been the usual, although the time is almot coming to an end. only just over a week left of work before we finish up and have a few days boarding before taking off. It will be sad to leave Golden but at the same time there are only more n...

So it came time for Australia Day. We decided to head out to Banff again for 3 days, staying at the Samesun Backpackers, where Leo had some friends staying also. Banff consists of about 80% Australians so is was bound to be a hectic few days. Due to the time difference we were able to celebrate Oz day for about 40 hours, listening to the hottest 100 countdown two nights in a row. The night of the 25th was a large one. Far too many beers that's for sure! a great ...
