Other Birds - and I do not mean girls...

I have a few more photos from on top of the mountain, of these birds, but blogger refuses to upload those. Guess some other day... Also, what are they called? 



Karasu Californiea

Strangely this one was not rummaging around in garbage, seemed to enjoy being outside in the nature, maybe is a Japonica speciality...

A Hill with a View

Some of them are not taken that high up, but the view is still splendid. 





The Bridge

Since I have a habit of disliking people who take photos in Shibuya crossing, I guess that I should not take postcard photos of the Golden Gate Bridge either... so you'll have to settle for the "under the bridge" shot instead. 

The Magnus

He is indeed a little poser, and that might be the very reason that there is only one good photo of him today (or I was focused elsewhere). But the photo I got, is good - all that counts. 

Nature for Real

Today's outing started with a drive to Deany Street and a bagel place - all good. Then we went over the bridge (there will be photos of that too) and up the hills to have a look at some of the smaller cedars or Redwood trees as they are called. You have to go to yoshimite to se the good ones, but it was very relaxing walking in the forest anyway. Got a few photos too, "hundkex" was probably the best one, but there is a redwood tree too... 





At the Morris'

Not far from Sunnyvale, so we went over there this evening. Nice food, good company, cute baby Anders, yes and Fletch the Cat.

Mexican for Lunch

Half an enchilada and nice Mexican beer, served by a proper Mexican. And, yes the chips were nice and the green spicy sauce were really good too.  


Nature Photography from Living Room Floor

If you're lazy, on a living room floor and happen to have a decent zoom lens, you can pretend to be outside. At least if there is some type of fern/evergreen growing close to the balcony. 


Or if you keep big pretend plastic plants next to your telly. 

Purple Flower

Forgot my camera today, so you will have to do with a photo from yesterday. Today we went to Palo Alto for breakfast and a walk, then to some random mall. Now hungry since lunch were skipped and now it's 4 pm. 

Betsy Johnsoned

A black little corset like top, with a little skirt at the bottom. Will be totally awesome for Roppongi playing.

Buildings




SF Water

The clouds did their best trying to cover Golden Gate Bridge today, but did not manage completely. 


In front of Alcatraz.

Old ship and boats down at the Marina. 

Sea lions sun bathing. Apparently they moved here after the big earthquake 1989, and have stayed since then. Many of them swims away during summer but a few of them is all-year-ers. Speaking of being in the sun, I can feel that my pale face have been out in the sun today. 

Follow the Pink Rabbit

Chevrolet

Boy with New Toy

That was last night, now it is the morning. Just checked what time it is in Japan. It is 12 noon there, tomorrow!! However, need to go and wake up the guitarist and do something with today, before it becomes tomorrow... or maybe play with the toy?

Euro-trash

Sunnyvale

There is a pool too, I want to have a morning swim, before the sun gets to strong obviously. He wants to go to SF early... let's see when we wake up. The palm trees are pretty, and now sitting out on the balcony and it actually smells like summer... greenery... humidity but not too hot. 


Pretty sure I will never eat here... crazy chicks...


281 Dollares, no more no less... we did wait for the light to change...


Like a moth, I'm drawn to the neon lights... 


Pebble  Roppan, looked closed. I was told that it was just open for Japanese men. Will go there tomorrow, with a russian accent, fishnets and a too short dress... the will feel right at home!

Meet the Jetsons at LAX

Re-LAX-ed at Los Angeles airport for about 2 hours. With relax I mean almost fell asleep; those 24 hours of not sleeping started to get to me. 

Another thing their control tower (if that is what it is) is very pretty and futuristic. What is not so futuristic is the crowd at Terminal 7, felt a bit like Ängelholm.

When inputting 6.. in the title I get 696 ASS as suggestion. Photo taken last time I visit Magnus in another part of the world... I'm sure it is his fault... or should I blame the cars?


696 ASS posts we remember.
