Tiden går fort når man... jobber?? :P Har vært utrolig trøtt i det siste og det kan være mange årsaker til det, men en av dem er kanskje fordi det har blitt en del jobbing og lite søvn.. anyways, har også fått en liten forfremmelse i restauranten, som jeg liker å kalle det;) Jeg skrev jo om de forskjellige oppgavene som finnes i restauranten og som jeg har fått opplæring i, noe som alle i food and beverage får opplæring i. For i tillegg til å greete gjester, seate dem og busse bord er det noe som heter assignor. Assignoren går [View Full Entry]

Hollywood and Universal Studios Probably the quickest checkout so far today - we were packed and ready to roll before the kids had much of a chance to wake up (the best way, as it turns out). We all piled into Igor The Boat and set Twiki to direct us to Universal Studios. By more coincidence than harmony between man and machine, we arrived at Universal Studios around midday without any incident, bar encountering a *very* helpful English woman who felt she needed to impart everything she knew about the States to us on a garage forecourt. That said though, she [View Full Entry]

Well, it seems we have flown ourselves into some major thunderstorm activity. Our flight left on time and arrived in Nashville for a "20 minute" stop, which turned into three hours of sitting on the plane waiting for the weather to get better in Baltimore. We didn't mind staying on the plane, though, since there were only about 15 people and we could stretch out. The terminal was apparently jam-packed and the people who finally boarded the plane did not look too happy. We arrived in Baltimore after midnight and by the time we made it to the hotel all the [View Full Entry]

We took al taxi ride from the San Diego hotel to the train station. The Pacific Surfliner was on time and we had a business class seat, just so that we were guaranted a seat to LA. Uneventful would describe the entire day. We made our bus connection in LA just fine, this time we didn't have to race through the place. We also didn't go exploring too much. No time or will to. We found where the bus loaded and an Amtrak woman that kept telling us stuff, but I couldn't really understand her. But it was the right bus [View Full Entry]

Well today I think we tried to see how much stuff we could pack into one day. It all began by me sleeping late this morning. I did not wake up until 6 am...can you believe it??? Once we got up, it was off to Wind Cave for the "Fairground Tour". This was supposed to be the longest tour they offered other than the candlelite tour and it was fully booked. We spent almost an hour and a half in 49 degree temperatures in the cave. I bumped my shoulder and head a couple of times on the top of the [View Full Entry]

En kort liten posting. Mest fordi jeg har padlet saa mye de siste dagene at jeg nesten ikke klarer aa skrive... (armene er moere) :-) Befinner meg i Sitka etter en fergetur fra Juneau. Her har jeg vaert de siste dagene, kom nettopp tilbake fra en todagers kajakktur delvis utaskjaers, setter sjoebein ennaa. Sitka er midt i regnskogbeltet, saa det er rimelig vaatt her, men av en eller annen grunn begynner jeg aa venne meg til at det skal vaere 8 grader og regn her. Ellers merker jeg at reisen gaar mot slutten, kanskje likesaagreit. Hele den Alaskagreia begynner saavidt aa [View Full Entry]

July 23, 2008 (Ames, Iowa) For all of you following the blog, you have to realize that we're staying in some pretty remote areas where we don't have access to the internet and many areas where our cell phones don't get coverage. Hence, the one day late blogs that are just now coming out. Its the problem being the blogger, because after everyone starts figuring out what its all about, then they expect it to be done. Now the team members complain "the blog hasn't been updated!" Oh well, here's what we did on day 4. We had a great break [View Full Entry]

(Antelope Creek Kennels) I wasn't going to post a lot of pictures of the kennel construction, because I thought you could keep up to it better if you went to Jean's website ~~ antelopecreekkennels.com ~~ and she could post the pictures, but the progress is just exciting! Once they got the concrete poured, everything they do makes such an improvement. I've added just a couple, but do go check out Jean's site. Besides pounding, there's not a whole lot going on. It's been hot (duh) and dry (DUH) and we're all surprised that July is almost over. And that's my news! [View Full Entry]

July 22, 2008 (Ames, IA) The riders made it in to the Comfort Inn in great shape. A flatter course made for more efficient riding in the peloton of riders. Sunny, but not too hot this morning. The route actually goes right in front of our hotel, so we take off from here tomorrow. Scott will be the designated driver, so he won't even need to get up since we can take off directly from our parking lot. After the riders got back and showered, we all headed across the street to the Azteca Mexican Restaurant. Great authentic Mexican food of [View Full Entry]
