The last week has been hectic so I haven't really had a chance for an update lately. In the mean time I've been to San Francisco, Yosemite Park, Las Vegas and The Grand Canyon. I've only got a couple of minutes to lay this all down so I'll come back latter and give you a better account of my adventures.
Las Vegas smells like the fabric conditioner that they use on my car after I've taken it for a service. I believe Showgirls to be an accurate portrayal of Las Vegas in the 90's. I saw a show called The Blue Man Group which was awesome. It's hard to explain but if a Daft Punk video clip was a 2 hour stage show then this would be it. The Grand Canyon would be pretty nice if it wasn't filled with fucking Japanese tourists and the bastard Indians weren't trying to take you for a ride. Think Cairns except desolate and shittier. San Francisco is a really beautiful city marred by Oriental "massage parlours" every 100 meters and a plague of homelessness. I cycled across the Golden Gate bridge (you can hire bikes) and I randomly met a cool German girl who was staying at the same hostel as me in the process. Yosemite National Park is really awesome. I went there on a day trip bus tour and I really wish I had done an overnight stay.
I'm going to San Diego tomorrow.

Sounds like you're having an awesome trip. In the last week some of the ground you've covered is what we're planning to do in June so you'll have to give us the lowdown. Did you win any money in Vegas?
Are you still alive over there? We haven't heard from you in some tiem so I assume that you have either a) been bitten by a rattlesnake, b) gotten drunk after one too many cervezas and passed out under a sombrero, or c) gone to cancun for spring break (at which point I wouldn't be contacting anyone either). Either way - I hope you get this message.
How was SanDiego and Mexico anyway? Are you ever coming back to Australia? If not I call dibs on your guitars...
