Travelling up the West coast to San Francisco

The next morning bill took us into Ventura where we would catch our train and bus to San Francisco that night, so we spent the day on the beach and in a cafe! I read on the Train until we got to santa barbera and then on teh coach I slept although it was freezing, We rolled into San Fran at 5am! Found a Hotel on Union Square (really good location) and I got us all a room for cheap, after we slept for a while we caught the tour bus to golden gate park and wondered around for ages their before catching teh bus again to the golden gate bridge, our tour guide was this wierd old guy who said the most pointless things but it was helarious! We were really lucky in San Fran as it was roasting hot and not cloudy which it usually is because of the pacific ocean pulls in cold weather and makes it cloudy. We then caught the bus to fishermans wharf and baught tickets for Alcatraz, we wanted to do the night tour but they were sold out for over a week :( so we got tickets for teh next day baught a takeaway and caught teh tram back. Next day we got up had brekkie and caught the bus to the golden gate bridge which we walked across, then went to see the sea lions and then alcatraz which was amazing, their was a guy their who was signing books, he had been an inmate for 5 years at alcatraz! shopped after for a bit and caught the tram back before going into china town and then to teh cheesecake factory which was onthe roof of macy's and teh view was awesome! Next day.......... phewwwww lol we got up quite late, went and played golf in the golden gate park which is bigger than central park! after golf we came back and caught the cable car up russian hill to the crookedest street and then went to the steepest road in San Fran which is over 30degrees :O finally before going to bed we went back to the cheesecake factory! Wow today!!!!!!! ok so basically I woke up late, went shopping, baught some new board shorts and a quiksilver t-shirt. went and had a wiked icecream at this quirky place 2 blocks away! then I chilled in union square and listened to music before talking to this guy who had also road tripped across america in a bus with randomers! later on today ill probly just go to teh cheesecake factory again. Tomorrow I fly to NYC in teh morning :(
Im gonna miss San Fran!

Ojai and the end of the YukonXL :(

With the rest of the day I drove us all to Ojai which is a beautiful spanish influenced town a few hours north of LA just above Malibu beach, this town is where we would leave our YukonXL with our Boss's Bill and Sabina. We checked into the Best Western Hotel and then Bill took us all for a meal at this gorgeous Mediterrainian and after we chilled in the pool and jacousi :)

No more Driving!!!!!!!!!!

Santa Monica, Hollywood, Venice Beach etc...

Later this day we drove to LA's Santa Monica, during our drive through the Nevada Desert it reached 113f which is 45oC so yeah it was roasting hot, we got to Todd's house around 6pm, Todd worked at camp this year for his 50th birthday and he is a financial advisor for celebritys like will smith etc... The night we got to his house we had a wonderful meal and then Todd rushed off at 9pm for a meeting with Christina Aguilera! we all chilled in their pool and Jacouse. The next day we went to Santa Monica beach and chilled, then muscle beach had lunch, hired bikes and biked down the boulevard where everyone rollerblades etc.... we went to venice beach and after we just chilled in teh Gelfands pool for a while before going to a Mexican restaraunt and then Hollywood and Beverly Hills at night. The next day I drove to LA down sunset blvd and past beverly hills and to Hollywood where we spent the morning. I also drove to the big sign of "hollywood" on the side of the mountain which was a nightmare to get to!!!
