Johnny Walker Tasting

I started off the day with a golf lesson. I totally sucked at it, but I learned some very helpful tips, now I just have to practice a lot! I was exhausted after an hour of hitting balls, who knew it could be that exhausting?
After golfing, I got a call in for pool play, nice!

I should’ve taken a nap, but I did 10 laps in the pool instead, and after dinner we headed out for a Johnny Walker tasting.
It seems like these tasting are getting more lame for each time we are doing them. We have done a few Johnny Walker tastings before, so we kind of knew the basics already, and that was good because this tasting was not very informative.
The space was super cool, but they pretty much just gave us 4 drinks and let us run with it. The pretty girls in the mini skirts serving the drinks was not of much help either, since they did not know anything about the various whiskeys.

K-Town Night Market

We took the metro to Korea Town to check out the night market. It was quite an adventure. People people everywhere! We didn’t stay for very long, I was kind of over it as soon as I saw that it was over populated. We spent about an hour trying to figure out what to do next and it got to the point that no one wanted to do anything so we all headed back home instead.

Blood Moon

There was a blood moon last night. A full lunar eclipse when the moon is full. I have tried but never managed to get a good photo of the moon before, but with a little help from a tripod and Leogra I got the settings right! Super happy!

Somewhere around here I was stupid and was gonna change lens on my camera. I never got the right settings back so I gave up. The moon turned red, but not really blood red. Still very cool!

Paddle Marina Del Rey

I love paddling around the Marina, it’s super fun and chill with a lot of things to look at.

We saw the usual boats, house boats, birds and sea lions, but we also saw dolphins in the middle of the marina, just a few feet away from us! How awesome! I didn’t even attempt to take a photo of them, since my camera is eh… not that good.

The paddle team!

After the paddle session and lunch, I headed over to the golf store to pick up a couple of clubs so I can be a proper golfer.

Doing it Michael Jackson style with only one white glove! Third time at the driving range and I am hitting more consistent, but still not very far. I should get a proper lesson so I don’t teach myself bad habits.

Playing Golf

I’ve been thinking about start playing golf for quite some time and finally hit up the Rancho Park driving range today.
I knew I was a lefty, but was handed a right hand club. I totally sucked and could not even hit the ball. I kept thinking to myself that I shouldn’t be this shitty so I picked up a lefty club and started to hit like a pro!

My goal for the day was to hit as far as the sand dune. Once I figured out how to swing with the hip I hit the sand pretty consistent. I later found out it was 100 yards.

I had a quite tiresome meeting after my golf session, and then out for dinner. A homeless man gave me a rose in exchange for my leftovers. I told him I really didn’t need a rose, but he wanted to give it to me anyway. How sweet!

Beach 2014 Here I Come

Or something… 
I love when I get home from work and its still light out, makes me wanna do stuff.

Mammoth Day 2

Another beautiful day on the mountain. It was a little windy on top, but the snow was still awesome.

I never want to stop, but my legs thought I had enough by 2pm so it was time to head back to Los Angeles. About halfway home we were considering doing a 180 turn, head back up to the mountain and call in sick tomorrow. But the grown ups inside of us spoke out and made us continue all the way back to Los Angeles.

Mammoth Mountain

Like an old married couple, Slasher and I now have the same set of skis. Yes, he bought his first, but I’ve been wanted a pair of Mantras for about 10 years.

Who knew we would have the best conditions of the season in April? Love the storm that rolled in over the past week! The snow was still cold even though the sun was strong, perfect conditions for new skis!

Why I love California? There’s a vegan cafe at the ski resort! I have a love-hate relationship to the hippies.

And yes, I did this…

On top of the Sierra, 11 053 feet up.

After a good 5 hours of skiing, my legs were dead tired and it was time to hit up Schat’s Bakery to pick up dinner.

Dessert for dinner while watching Mrs Doubtfire, to exhausted to even change the channel.

Skis are waxed and it’s past 9 pm, is it time to go to bed yet?

Wendy’s

Heading up to Mammoth to ski, yay! We had to stop somewhere to eat on the way and wanted something quick and dirty. I had never been to Wendy’s but finally got a date with this juicy redhead.

It was not that epic.
