Well here's my longer post though it seems like no one is around tonight.
Here are some more pics from my vacation, that are mostly on Facebook, but eh.
There's an interesting relationship between these two.
Swan looks up to Sean, and while I don't think Sean will admit it... I think he likes having a second in command. And a goffer.
Me
My host
And Dylflon 2.
There's an evil story... I don't want to remind myself of.
Dyne and Dylflon 2 read over a special Mad Lib.
There were some interesting ones done.
Me trying sushi for the first time.
I enjoyed most of it. Sean enjoyed the rest.
Bubble tea.
Good stuff.
Sadly, I got no pics of us doing the whole 8 player LAN party, but eh.
PoCo was pretty fun. And it was nice meeting everyone.
Adam and his family were terrific to me, and I enjoyed my stay.
Now this part of the trip isn't too interesting to most, but was my favorite part as I got to visit an old friend.
This globe greets you at the MS Visitor's Center. It has some text written around it. Pretty sweet.
They had Gears connected on a REALLY huge screen. I would guessimate about a 100 inches, but don't take my word for it.
My true journey... granted, pretty closed off except for a tiny store.
Awesome candy shop in the Pike Peak Market (I promised to bring candies for Acebot so this is where it was purchased)
The Space Needle
View from the Top.
For the final leg of the trip, I visited Ace down in LA.
First thing you should know, he has truly interesting socks.
He enjoys sitting on balls.
We went to Medievel times which was completely bad-ass.
Outside of...
Our black and white knight losing in the first round.
Hard to see in this pic, but pretty cool thing that lists all the Oscar Winners for best picture.
Chinese Theatre.
Ace enjoys verbal abuse.
This was his verbal abuser for a truly terrible but awfully slow comeback game of Beer Pong.
This is Ace and Nick.... both had a terrible idea for beer pong...
One cup filled to the brim for both of them. First person to sink their ball wins. The other... well had to finish both cups.
Nick Lost.
Ace explaining his organization system.
There are more pics from Venice and the Vietnamese Culture Night, but getting tired of linking.
I will say this about my two hosts since spent the most time with them.
Adam/Combine is an interesting individual. In a way, he reminded me of a small kid, not so much because he was spoiled or slow, but he was just kept so out of the pop culture bubble.
On the same hand, he has a very welcomed sense of humor at least to me. Though, a Canadian trait seems to be answering a question by just restating what was said.
"What is Tim Horton?
Cam: Its Time Horton!"
Watching the Fifth Element with Adam, asked who the bad guy was
Adam: He's that guy.
I got a lot of those "answers"
Now Ace/Allen impresses me, partially because like every other person he introduced me to had some random nickname that he remembered, but also he is a real people's person. I got to see him work twice, and it is an interesting sight to watch.
He has a charm about him that allows people to respect and listen to him, and he gets his way without being too heavy handed. It is an interesting balance.
Well, I think that's all for now. Sadly, I have to return to the real world soon enough.
