Arrived pretty late on a Saturday night in Miami. Had been trying to get in contact with Chris (connection from Cameron from austin). I was assured that this was my man to speak to for everything miami. My first night I was on my own but funnily enough met a dude from 'the shire' who was only staying around the corner. We went and had beers and Mexican and chatted about what we could expect from Miami.... Nothing could have prepared me After having heading back...

Aka the f***ing ghetto , pretty sure as I was walking in to the place there was a nigga out the front sellin...

Ev picks me up from LAX and I'm already frothen at the mouth... We were going to watch the lakers v bucks at the staple centre!! I was about to watch the Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash in action.. Could barely contain myself.. Me and Ev chatted about my weekend in San Fran and just swapped cool stories. He told me that back in the day Steve Nash used to slay the birds..
