Journalists Internship

Vacation Time
(Oct. 19 - 23)


The SPJ internship is over. I have half week off and I am back in the West Coast for the first time in nearly five months. So, I am giving myself the rest of the week off so that I can enjoy a mini vacation. So, here are the photos and a little info about them. Don't expect a blog or a journal. I am just sharing what happened to me in the remainder of the week. Enjoy!

Sometimes I can be a blind person. We stood there looking at the view of Las Vegas and the lady next to me said "oh, look! The tower's shadow looks cool." Of course I had to shoot it. Man, I felt ashamed.


Everyone knows I am afraid of heights. But still, I got on the Insanity Ride, 109 stories above the ground, some 909 feet over the street. Wooohooo!!! What a ride!


Watched a few shows including Viva Las Vegas and Bite. Wow! Bite was absolutely amazing.


I am artistic. right? Here you can see how artistic I am. :)


Maybe I am just a clown.


What a view?


Just like last year, SPJ took me to New York.


And a few steps down the way to a volcano.


This is what I call painting w/ light.


Aliens!!!!! Ahhhh!


That's one cool dude! Which one?... The one in the cowboy hat.


NICE! A hotel named after me. El Cortez. WoopWoop!


That's what I am talking about: El Cotez -- $ WE PRODUCE WINNERS $


Cookie Monster made it back to Cali. He missed his home!


Baker, Calif., home of the largest thermometer in the world!


Califas! Home of mountains.


Over the gulf coast on my flight back to Florida.


Hurricane Wilma had me stuck in Tampa and I was interviewed by local channel 10 news because of the mistake my airline did by taking me to Tampa. I'm Famous!!! Nice!

It's been a rough week. I went from Florida to California, to Nevada, to California, to Tampa and finally a long drive home to Ft. Lauderdale into the Hurricane Wilma destruction zone. Go to my Florida Journal and see what I came back to upon my arrival in So. Florida.
