We've been having a cool time in San Fran for the last week or so but sadly now its coming to an end. Last weekend we met up with a friend, Kara, who we met in Cuba. Her and her friend picked us up Friday night and we went in to San Francisco to a bar. Had a nice time. Its very weird not being able to smoke in a bar though. When it closed, at around 2 we went and stuffed our faces at the drive-thru. The following day the sun fina...

Finaly in Miami - yay! Have just spent a lovely 2 days relaxing on the white sands of South Beach, swimming in the clear, warm sea and wondering the streets of Miami Beach. Was well needed after the stress of Sunday - having to move out of my room, pack my enormous rucksack and sell my car all with THE hangover from hell (from the leaving party), and after almost not even making it here at all (bit of a dilema with visa's at the airport) but eventualy we had a...
