North America » United States » California » Los Angeles » Hollywood September 12th 2005

*note- there was a bit of a delay in publishing this entry, I've been back in the Netherlands since 14/9/05 Hey everyone... So we made it from the east coast over to the west coast! What a difference...We got to LA around midday, our shuttle bus driver told us all the stuff we had to know about staying in Hollywood (places to see, places to absolutely avoid), drove us all around the city too (OK so he had to drop off a few other tourists but still, we got the tour) Our hostel, the 'Hollywood International Hostel' was bang in the middle of Hollywood Boulevard, opposite the Kodak Theatre (where the Oscars are) and the Chinese Mann's Theatre. And the stars were on our doorstep (the stars in the sidewalk that is). We decided to ... read more

So, no, I haven't actually left the country. I know this is a "traveljournal" but I have real important info to parlay, so I thought I'd do it anyways. My good friend Betsy Riley, co-student in Ms. Murgetroyd's 8th grade class from hell, told me to put up this picture of yours truly in one of his world famous sexy poses. Thanks Betsy, and tell your Bolognese roommate that I'm single, and will be in Bologna soon. Note Gadiel's hideously short hair. Glam rock till I die. ... read more

Sorry I have no pictures for this blog. So the last day of the tour was pretty good. Easy to leave this boring group, although luckily a couple of the girls from my original group were staying in la so we hung out for the day at the beach. Kel & Fiz were staying with me that night and we stayed in Beverly Hills. We went for a long walk along Santa Monica Boulevard hoping to see some famous people but the walk was too long & we got tired so turned around just before The Viper Room (Johnny Depp's club). Next day we went shopping in Beverly Hills. We were way too tired to go out that night and besides, it was our last day in the USA the next day anyway. Kel & Fiz ... read more

After months and months of anticipation, the trip is finally here!!!! I left home around 10am to meet up at Mar and Amy's house. Kevin was to drive me to the airport while Vern and Bill took Mar, Amy, and Patrice. Suzanne and Clay were already at the airport to catch their flight with Air Canada. We checked in at the British Airways counter and it was fairly easy with no hassles. Afterwards, all 7 of us went to the food court where we just hung out for a bit and grabbed a bite to eat. We said our goodbyes to Kevin, Vern, and Bill and entered our terminal to wait for our 3:35 flight to London!!! Boarded the plane and thankfully all 4 of us were able to sit together in the middle. We had ... read more

North America » United States » California » San Francisco September 9th 2005

Hello all! Aaron and I have arrived safely in San Francisco and have both begun our ministries. We are living in a parish, school, and retired Marist community right in the middle of the financial district in downtown San Fran. Its a great location and Aaron and I had a few days to explore the city on our own before beginning our work. After meeting with Catholic Charities we have both begun working although in different places. Aaron is working at a place called Rita de Cascia house which is a home for previously homeless families who have a family member infected with HIV/AIDS. He is also doing some work at Guerrero House which is a transitional house for homeless young adults ages 18-24. I am working at St. Joseph's Family Center which is a transitional ... read more

Hallo allemaal, EINDELIJK een teken(tje) van leven..... :-) Is een busrondreis zwaar: als je zelf met de auto een rondreis doet is het nog tien keer zwaarder blijkt nu.... Zelf rijden, wegzoeken, parkeren, etc, etc, etc... We hebben dus ook drie hectische dagen achter de rug, waar we absoluut geen tijd hadden om te internetten :-( Zitten nu in Palm Springs, achter een crisis PC van dit hotel (lodge gebeuren). Kan dus ook GEEN foto's uploaden! :-( Baal, baal, baal. Maar goed, we hebben het dus *erg* naar onze zin!!! Goede vlucht gehad (al was het wel ERG lang vond ik). Vervolgens niet in het oplichtings verhaal van de automaatschappij getrapt. Je zou MOETEN upgraden naar een 6 cylinder auto voor de trip die wij gingen doen. Ik weigerde, en buiten aangekomen bleken er ALLEEN maar ... read more

Wow. Today's Truthful yet Trepid Thoughts on Traveling Throughout - Less than 2 weeks before I go who-knows-where. - I'm so pumped up about the prospect of open-endedness, I'm thinking of taking a boat from Israel to Greece, and then hitchhikin' my way to Italy. Don't worry, I follow the Good Book. - I have 1 month in London to do whatever floats my boat, I'm thinking of getting a euro-mullet. Oh wait, I already have one (See picture) - Apparently, Cigarettes in the UK cost somewhere between 9 and 10 U$A currency, if not more. I'm thinking of bringing over a few cartons (NOTE: ILLEGAL) and selling them to the Brits. If anyone has tried this before, and is now in jail or did serve time, this is the time to let me know. - ... read more
