the adventures of the ob bike crew

july 4th is a celebration of america's independence and although im not american, i believe in freedom, and thus i believe in my right to party in celebration of america, and enjoy a day off from study like all americans enjoyed their day off from work..but a huge thanks to those that did work, providing us with ample booze and food to get us through the day!

i spent the day of adventures amongst the most patriotic american's, singing american songs, drinking american beers, taking american shots, biking from beach to beach and enjoying one of the most beautiful days san diego has put on this summer!

...without restraints or restrictions..biking across san diego with the breeze blowing in our hair gave us that sense of complete freedom..and also the sense of complete pleasure as we flew by the queue's of cars packed with people trying to get to the beach for the day..SUCKERS!!!

adventure 1: rehydration after the ride with a pitcher of some insanely sugary shot which in pairs we raced to the bottom of..

..pitcher down it was back on our bikes for adventure #2 to pb bareback..

..only on america's day...

with the day heating up..and us needing to sober up..adventure #3 was to the ocean for a quick paddle..

..before we hit up vegas on the beach..

..after we had enough of being amongst the crowds we set out for another ride..adventure #4 to robbies!!

..a little partying on the bay..and swimming in the river..before our last bike adventure for the day..back to ob for the fireworks display...

..and some american shots...

..and a massive ob mashmellow fight..next year sandals arn't the footwear of choice..sticky icky mess..

hope you all had a great july 4th also

to mexico

after much talk of how awsome it would be to 'pop across the border' to mexico, we finally put plan into action just like we put lobster into a taco..and ate it..saturday morning we packed up the truck and set off for the mexican border..no surprise that i needed neither my papers or passport to enter mexico..just drove right on in..

destination Puerto Nuevo..

..and a lunch stop for real mexican..lobster..and beautiful beach views..

plus a little music..margaritas and mexican beer..

 then it was back on the road for San Miguel..a little beach that was the place we lay our heads..

the campsite and our little camp fire..ready for some smore making..times 8..

fire light by night..enjoying the peace before light broke..

it was short and sweet but well worth it to taste a little bit of real mexican..

soon enough we were waiting in the queue to get back into america..no surprise that the passport was required this time..

great wee weekend retreat..i shall return to take down another lobster..

happy july 4th to my american's..let the fun and games begin x

bloody beaut day

on my morning walk with Bronny at 6.30am the sun was peeking out!its the first time the cloud layer has been gone this early since iv been back in OB..a beach day is in the making..plus a change of scenery is necessary to keep the brain juices flowing..as they seem to have gone on vacation with me..this GRE isn't guna get done without a little bit of brain action..

enjoy your day..

only one more sleep til the w.e adventures begin :)

my 2nd bareback bus tour

the sun finally came out, just in time for the bus tour..in which we spent the majority of the day INSIDE at the bar..or inside a bus..but it gave us an excuse to put a hat on..and cut our toe nails..

we started the day at pb bareback..i ate fush and chups..despite the lack of newspaper they were bloody fantastic..add in some watties t-sauce and these could be pretty legit..

the bus trip from pb to downtown included the longest bridge of erin in history..i hope to post video footage in the near future..keep your little eye open..

bron checking her alcohol levels at downtown bareback..where the porridge really got heated up..to a boil..then the oats started popping..wildly..thankfully a walk to the padres game gave us a little break from the booze fest..

i spy with my little eye..two drunken kiwi's with a hat on..

bridge of erin - erin = bridge

fireman sam and his gang

things only get better with time..can't wait to see where this day goes next year :)

thanks to the crew for a great tour xx
