My 1st trip to the USA and I want to share what went on. We started with Los Angeles, then Vegas, Chicago..a quick trip to Napa then San Francisco..4 states in 18days :) No time for jet lag, no time for rest. Had to use my time wisely, because I haven't seen my relatives there for a long long looooong time.

LOS ANGELES : You were an adventure. Santa Monica pier's sunset is incomparable, beautiful. Six flags was amazing, sad I was too lazy to bring my cam, but go pro did a fine job :) Sky the husky, oh dear hyper dog you made it exciting for me to wake up when I see you holding your ball. Oh and shopping with you is aaaaaah crazy, it was cheap and vast variety. Family dinners in your backyard is unforgettable, like your endless freeway.

Las Vegas : You were hot hot HOT! You look left and right, people were ready to take their clothes off. I couldn't take pictures because the conservative me couldn't. And your desert is a different kind of art to me, the succulents and shrubs everywhere was new to me. I was so tempted to crack an egg on your freeway because it was crazy damn hot. You were a quick stop but I will never forget walking in the lobbies of Cesars Palace and the Bellagio, holding a beer in hand and feeling like its going to be Hangover for the nth time for me. 

Chicago : You were home to me.  Your architecture, cold winds, morning enchiladas and white castle are all great but with you I had a grand time with family. You made me feel it was Christmas in August :) It was exciting to wake up the next day for a new place to go! Lets use the boat to see your city scape, or ride the train to meet your people and walk around down town to see my reflection on the bean. I think you made me fat, you served me a buffet breakfast at home, lunch all you can and dinner chinese all cuisine buffet. It was always a good day, and I had the best sleep on the air bed that had no air. 

San Francisco : You gave the perfect send off party! Wine tasting at Napa in the afternoon, then steak and beer at night :) There was so much to see but so little time.  There's a lot of interesting stuff about you, your Tram ride was an exhilarating experience I had fun hanging on to the side of it. Walking towards Pier 39 seeing different kinds of expressing self from dancing to spray painting to beggars who kept it real by asking for weed money instead. You're crooked street was pretty crooked and your golden gate bridge not so gold after all but was so beautiful and helplessly iconic. So much to see, so little time. But don't worry Im coming back for you!

On this trip, I told myself to enjoy because Im a tourist first then photographer :) Hope you enjoyed my snaps!
