These are my personal pictures. Pictures taken of me when I was in the States. That was around December of 1996. Went to many places in the states and experienced many new things. I even got kicked out of a casino in Las Vegas for being underage. On the right is a picture of me in Palm Spring. Desert Hills to be precise (which is close to Palm Springs). Had to ride a cable car to reach that high up. And besides a great view, there's plenty of big trees and rocks. And I still got plenty of space to write about the place. Note:In the picture, I am not sleeping. The camera does play tricks. What the picture does not show is a big sasquatch (aka BigFoot) which supposedly lived in the area. In spring, the creature goes to the local health spa for its yearly beauty treatment. Even wondered why I never became a writer? If you're reading this, you should already know the reason. As you can see, the high altitude creates a cool surrounding. Feels like being in one of those Salem advertisements. Stayed on top of the hill for a few hours. Then had to come back down using the dreaded cable cars. It shook most of the way, creating few in everyone and if it drops, 99.99% chance that you'll die as it if a very long drop down. And people actually pay for all these stuff. Too bad the places closes by 7pm. Sure wanna know how it feels like being in the cable car, wobbling halfway, in total darkness. And then, you feel gravity pulling you straight to the rocks below. Could be a site for bungee jumping. When you reach down, packs of coyotes will have a meal of a time with you. Although, Palm Springs had a cool miniature golf place and games centre. I'm still the best at miniature golf in the family. No one will ever beat me.
Finally, picture number two. Yatchs, boats, piers, water, seas, gays and Alcatraz Island. San Francisco. Some guy left his heart there, according to the song. Far back in the picture, just left of the center, in the thick fog is Alcatraz Island. Was a high-security prison, now a tourist attraction. I'll make a good hotel. Cheapest rooms would be the solitary confinement chambers. A few minutes (hours at most) and a normal person would go crazy, therefore, payments had to be done before entering with a week minimum. The picture does leave a lot to be pondered. So many small boat and not a soul in sight. Should have tried galavanting with one of them, but then I hate the sea. And rumours has it that those are shark infested water. So dont try to swim to Alcatraz Island, take a boat. I even got sick just looking at the sea. That was called pre-sea-sick-sickness. Everything would be fine after you throw up a few times. The camera does play a lot of tricks on the picture. I seem to look much bigger in the picture than what I really am. The Bay area was always cloudy and foggy but then it never really did rain like really rain. And the streets in San Francisco was cool. Steep, straight, and a totally crooked one. A car chase on the streets like in "The Rock" would be fun. But remember, after going down a hill, you have to come back up the hill again. It also had a Ripley's Believe It Or Not museum. And plenty of piers to choose from. There's also the Golden Gate bridge. Although, they never did allow people to climb up the bridge. It was great fun anyway. And now, I could move on to the next picture, which would be the third picture, which is also the second last one, thankfully.
Now we've arrived to the third picture. Kennedy Space Centre, Which is in Cape Canaveral in Florida, the other side of the United States of America. Besides the people behind me, there's also plenty of rockets and space capsules wich are for show here. This is where some of the rockets and space shuttles start they're journey to space. For another point of view, this place could also be known as a rockets graveyard. All these stuff are so huge and sometimes you can't really believe that all these stuff could travel to space. The Centre was named after President Kennedy who was the person responsible for boosting the morale for space travelling, specificly, to be the first one to walk on the moon. Truthfully, no one ever did walk on the moon, they just hop around like rabbits. The site was more like an island. You have to cross foggy patches of road to the very end of land, which is a great site to put build a secret base or other type of undercover facility. The roads leading to the centre could also be flooded when heavy rain fall. There's also plenty of alligators and platipuses around as Florida is such a swampy, everglad-y state. Apart from Miami, that is. Florida is also the home of Busch Gardens. A theme park in Tampa with scary rides. And also the Sea World , Universal Studios, and DisneyWorld in Orlando. Not to mention, plenty of factory outlets. A great place for a holiday. So many things to see and do, over and over and over again.
Last, but not least, the fourth picture. By looking at the picture, you should know why I prefer to wear a cap nowadays. It was one pretty windy day at Hoover Dam. The dam is in Arizona and Nevada. The border line is in the middle. And there's an hour difference between the two states. My guess is the picture is me standing on the Arizona side, but I'm not a hundred percent sure. If you make a wish on a coin and throw it on the border line, a high chance of it coming true. Well, according to the movie "Fools Rush In", so don't take my word for it. If you wanna know more about the the history or beliefs and rituals to do at the dam, then I suggest that you rent the video of the movie. I'm too lazy to list everything out here. The dam was a few hours drive from the desert heaven/hell of Las Vegas. Plenty of cool hotels. The Excalibur-a castle, The Mirage-has a volcano, MGM Grand-has a theme park, The Caesar's Palace-was the boxing arena before they moved to MGM, New York, New York-the name says it all and many many more. There's even a rollercoaster which is located about 50-60 storeys above. We stayed in the Luxor-a black pyramid. It's very Egyptian-like place and it even has a river flowing thru it. At night, a laser beam is shone towards the sky from its peak. No lifts, just inclinators, as it was a pyramid, the sides are not straight up. Anyway, all these sites could be seen in Will Smith's "Gettin' jiggy wit' it" video. And there's plenty of casinos too. Which I was still underage for which lead me to get kicked out of the casino while trying my luck on the slot machines. It was fun while it lasted. The End.
