USA Trip 10 June - 29 June 2012

I have been to LA for 1 week then 2 weeks in SF.
It was really a great experiences observing how is the US culture like and how nice the people are there, it was an eye opening for lots of things for me as it is really new and beautiful especially the beach there during the summer vacation as everyone head towards the beach and i managed to hangout there for quite awhile and enjoy the beautiful scenery, zephyr, seagull chipping & the crashing sounds of the sea waves at Santa Monica.
Did quite alot of shopping in LA especially at Desert Hill, i swear that place is like Disneyland for adults ! You can just keep going for the whole day swiping your credit card like free and worry about how much your spend later cause the things there is really cheap especially those local brands like Coach, Vans & Levis and many more like Kate Spade etc.

It was actually a choosen trip thanks to the course manager of my course he picked me for the trip and i actually would thanks whoever recommended me to go ahead for the trip. Meet really awesome people there really cool people to spend really great time with and visit really cool places such as the Golden Gate Bridge, Golden Gate Park, St Mary Cathedral & The Palace of Fine Arts. The method places are really the highlights of the whole trip, as all of the this places we actually figure out and planned by ourselves and travel there via SF public transport.

Golden Gate Bridge will be the most memorable and also a really bad experiences at the same time as some smart alec suggested to cross the bridge all the way to the another side of the bridge & everyone though there will be a bus for us to travel back to SF and we could head back to the hotel and ended up we had to walk back across the bridge to where we started and trust me walking isnt the trouble for us. The day was really cold and i could actually believe it is as cold as 5-10 degree with strong wind and fog covering the bridge feeling like the fog is devouring the bridge away, we could have freeze our ass to death on the bridge.
Some of the guys actually got cheated as the smart alec told them that the day is gonna be really hot as it is summer and there will be no need for jackets ! And LOL! crossing the bridge in freezing cold temperature twice when we reached home we just when straight for the hot shower turn our air-con into heater straight.

The Palace of Fine Arts was really awesome too, as Mitch's mention it feels like some gaming fantasy world as the architecture feels isnt from earth below to some digital graphic world which i actually totally agree with him. The architecture is really awesome i really appreciate this crazy ancient architecture sculpture so much larbour work and time spend to complete a magnificent job. The place is really holistic and awesome the views, the birds, the lake, the kids playing with bubbles and the sunset.

There is so much more to say about USA but i will let the picture do the talking. The pictures could be found in my Facebook. Speaking of picture i was actually really lucky to found Mark Ruffalo at Stanford University.... Who is he ? Its ok.... HE IS THE HULK !!! From the Avengers.... The most worthy photo i could get for the whole trip already. But what is more worthy then the awesome company you have to spend to with you at USA.
I really miss America already. The weather, the people, the scenery, the naturally photoshopped sky, the food and most of all the company i have for the whole of 3 weeks.
