Another down day

Another down day in Stevens pass. Looks like we arn’t going to be able to shoot here because of the weather so we are off to Keystone on monday.

Played putt putt today to pass the time. Was super fun.

Photo’s

As promised here is some photo’s from my trip.

Sitting in Stockholm

Flying in over Frankfurt

Laura just woke up

Laura and I

So yesterday and today the weather here has been pretty shit. Yesterday we went bowling and played some golf to pass the time. Today I’m not sure what we will do, maybe golf, maybe bowling or maybe just the internet.

Computer party

A flight with Wireless

As I write this post I am sitting in seat 33B on my flight to L.A. I never knew that you were able to get on wireless internet during flights so this comes as a big suprise to me. It is definitely helping pass the time. I will be in seattle tonight so hopefully if I have internet I will do a post about the travels from stockholm to Seattle with pictures.

In transit

I am currently sitting in New York at an airport hotel. Spent the night here last night and this morning I am hopping on another flight over to seattle. 

The flight over was pretty mellow but we did experience a few patches of turbulance. What I was most stoked on was the fact that both my bags weren’t over wieght (though I was going to have to pay a lot of excess)

Stay tuned for an update from Stevens pass.

Stockholm-JFK

Packed my bags and I’m ready to go. Laura and I are finally leaving Stockholm and are on route to New York City.We have a stop over there and then both laura and I jump on separate flights as Laura is on her way back to Australia and Im on my way to film with MSP.

Check this video out. Made me laugh. I love the guys goggles at 0:26. What do they look like?

Camera

Basically occupied myself by taking photo’s today. Let me know what you think. Still figuring out the settings on the camera so some of the shots might not be the best.

Alice in Wonderland

Just got done watching Alice in Wonderland. I have to be honest I was a little nervous walking into the cinema because this movie gave me nightmares when I was younger. But once it was over and I was actually stoked on it. This might have had something to do with it being in 3D.

Stockholm

So for those of you who don’t know. Im stuck in stockholm until next monday. I really wish I could be in the states filming but on the other hand I could also be stuck in worse places. Today a lot of the guys finally were able to fly out of sweden. So that ment that last night everyone was ready to party. Here are some shots:

Nate, jossi and shay (All 3 are really good at partying)

Balmer was on fire last night

The party went for quite a while last night so needless to say laura and I spent most of the day in bed sleeping. When we did venture out, I decided I would take my new toy (canon powershot s90) for a spin. The manual settings are pretty confusing but if I practise enough I think I’ll pick it up.

Im going to have a lot of fun over the next few weeks taking photos and learning about my camera.
