AMAZING SAN FRANCISCO

^{Photos by Steph}

Unfortunately by the time those photos are going to be online, our time in San Francisco will be over ! A HUGE thanx for all of you guys who have been sending tips and invitations. We have no other options but to come back and stay a little longer next time ;-)

San Francisco is a fun place today, but when you think that back in 1851, there was 25,000 people here, most of them bachelors, and there were 500 bars ... woohoo !!! It was certainly a fun place back then too ;-)

I have never been to China so I cannot tell you if walking in Chinatown is like being in China ! There is a lot of Asians, Asian restaurants, Asian shops and Asians talking ... so I guess it is the closest you can get to China without going to China.

There are so many things to do here, so many places to go out and great restaurants like Le Colonial ... There is something magic about San Francisco, once you go there the only option is to fall in love ... and we did ! So long SF ... More photos from San Francisco by Steph.

FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS // LYON // FRANCE

This is not Vegas but the annual Fête Des Lumieres in the city of Lyon, France. This tradition dating back more than 150 years draws around four million spectators each year. For more photos click here. Thanx Vincent !

BYE BYE SAN FRANCISCO

I guess it's time for a new migration futher south ! Not that we do not like the beautiful Frisco San Francisco Fog but L.A. seems to be warmer at this time of the year !

SAN FRANCISCO // JINGLE ALL THE WAY

Christmas spirit is almost at its peak ! Today was a busy shopping day in San Francisco. I am not so crazy about xmas and after a couple of days I am done with the holidays songs and I just wanna slap the first one who might dare to sing xmas tune on the street.

But I also like the over the top xmas thing. I just took this picture of a guy and his dog on Union Square. You cannot imagine how cute it was and how much attitude this dog had, while staring at everyone and giving us the "I am fucking santa's dog bitches" look, and in return was receiving applause from everyone on the street !

MEDITERRANEAN SUNDAY SUNSET !

Here are some photos of our Mediterranean weekend, the sunset was just amazing but the most amazing thing was this fisherman standing right in the middle of the sea, it was like looking at a man walking on water !

Check out :: here :: how far he was from the beach ! Ok he was standing on a rock but the effect is spectacular.

NEW YORK CITY BY NIGHT

On our night tour of Manhattan we went to the Top of The Rock (The best view of NYC) it was empty and very romantic (perfect) the elevator trip up is so cool check out this picture taken inside the elevator !

After that we wanted to do some ice skating but the freshly separated Britney Spears was there and the crowd was crazy, maybe that was because of her ridiculous had ... and it wasn't even cold ! See you soon NYC ...

NEW YORK // ABERCROMBIE // HELENA REMIX

While shopping at the Abercrombie & Fitch store on the 5th Avenue I was struck at the entrance (believe me or not) by the music ! Ok the guy standing there with his jacket opened also caught my attention ... but the music was a cool remix of 2005 Eurovision Song winner Helena Paparizou :: My Number One :: Club Mix by Josh Harris is one of my favorite !

NEW YORK! NEW YORK!

We just came back from a short but intensive trip to New York City ! We had such a great time. It was a first for Alek who totally loved the city, and the city loved him back immediately, as soon as we took our first step outside the hotel, he stepped on a $100 bill (usually in Paris we are more use the step on dog's shit and say that it is good luck) believe me it is better luck to step on Benjamin Franklin's face ;-)

Since this trip was a surprise for Alek we were not able to see all the people we know in the Big Apple but we will come back very soon. I'll be posting the rest of the photos in the days to come ...

HALLOWEEN SEASON !

We know that a creepy Manor in Foggy Scotland would be more appropriate for this Halloween season but what can I say ... We prefer to stay on the sun wearing our scuba diving mask ;-)
