Thank you!
You've been to more places than I have. I've only been to Virginia, Washington D.C. and Mexico(country).
I'm going to California next summer!

Glad you're having fun here! I live in Los Angeles. :)
You're gonna love San Francisco!
Glad you are having a great time Brenski.

Yep, California is the best! Even if we did have way too much rain this year...but now I love it here even more because supposedly the tour's coming here to Los Angeles in the fall! I'll believe it when I see it, though -Brian's soapbox has been saying they're about to push the button for probably three months now! :)
:D Rock on!
San Fran is the best... and not just because i live in the area ;)
Hope you enjoy the rest of it and the beautiful city... be sure to try the cupcakes at citizen cupcake on 4th and Market (its on the top story of the virgin megastore). Their carrot, lime or mint cupcakes are all very very delicious!

Martin...so wonderful to hear from you. Was hoping you are still here in the USA, so you would be safe due to the London terrorist attacks.
Well...you enjoy Los Angeles. And I want a full report about Queen on both the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and the Hollywood Rock Walk.
Stop by Mann's (formerly Grauman's Chinese Theater) to see all the movie star's handprints in cement there too.
Drive down Wilshire Boulevard and Hollywood and Vine and you will see all the Record Companies and some film/TV studios too!
You have to eat hot dogs at ''The Tail Of The Pup''. They have superior weiners and curly fries, and all the movie stars stop there cuz the dogs and curly fries are so YUMMY!
Drop by Jonny Depp's Viper Room and The L.A. House Of Blues and rock your ass off.

am still having a great time
spent the afternoon on a tour of s.fran - bloody hilly - understatement eh?
all eating far too much (it is, i'm told - the American Dream)...my son has had approx 40 pancakes with maple syrup (for breakfast so far)
we've also travelled approx 2400 miles since getting here - visited four states, seen 25 airports, countless McDonalds(trying to avoid eating in them)....listened to approximately 100hrs of music on mp3 player and spent 60hrs on coach(bus)....filmed approx four hrs of footage for dvd, and taken over 300 camera pictures...oh yeah, and watched the red sox on hotel tv four times while out here (which is more red sox games than i get to see in a whole season back home on english tv)
bought some nfl gear at pier39. going out to alcatraz tomorrow and then the day after to san simeone, then anaheim (disney adventure park) and LA to finish next weds....
have to say that the place that blew me away wasn't G.Canyon (altough it was pretty awesome) and Yosemite was great too! - no - the most unspoilt and beautiful place of all those we've seen was Sedona - this was the location of many old western films and remains a thing of beauty - Arlene - you may remember the 'vistas' from many John Wayne movies....
i hope no-one is offended by my upbeat tone (after what has happened in London today) - i am thinking about my countrymen, but at the same time i'm not sacrificing a moment's enjoyment on this holiday we've looked forward to for so long...
apols for 'going on a bit' - but this country is just incredible....
regards to all, one 'very blown away' QZoner...
